What is Safe? I remember as a young mother of four working hard to keep my kids safe. Next to fed and dry (two still in diapers!) that was each day's goal: No one got hurt. It never occurred to me THEN to add: No one got killed. Now that I've buried a child, my heart can be paralyzed if I allow it. Because fear of what you know by experience outstrips fear of the unknown by miles! But I refuse. I will let my living children make choices that reflect THEIR dreams and not MY fears. #thelifeididn
