Ups and Downs

Ups and Downs



People say that life is made of ups and downs. But when there occurs the withdrawal of

someone so precious the "ups" are scarce or virtually impossible

to experience. As for the "downs" yes, these are frequent visits.



In one of these times of "down" I received the following message from my dear

sister Eliane Barbosa that by having touched me so closely and show so much wisdom

I want to share with you:



"My dear sister Eveline,

The longing you feel for our beloved Iel is legitimate and unique in your heart.

The love of a mother is eternal, nothing dims. He will always be in your retina

as you view him in your thoughts and will always be  in your heart following you,

whether you're working, chatting, having fun and giving attention to

your other sons. Longing, yes, it's natural. Deep sadness that erodes not.

In the story of our life we are not the authors but the actors. "



Actually "we are not authors." We do what we think is the most correct,

fight for the welfare of our children, the joy and fulfillment of them.

We are good actors because we fulfill our role, our mission in the best way

possible. We strive ... But we do not have and can not have the domain of history

which is often written in absentia of our will.



But we should be proud to have always offered our best. Continue

our mission and seek new challenges helps ward off the  "downs". Help to live!
