Life is full of twists and turns, events, obligations, friends and family…
This requires us to make priorities and, the choices are often complicated.
If you are a writer, you know that the path to spending time at our craft is often blocked—sometimes by people and events over which we have little or no control.
Recently, I have had to make choices between what I might like to do—even feel called to do—and family obligations.
Because of my parent’s failing health, blocks of time have needed to be reallocated from my writing time to family time.
Because I choose to focus on what they need, writing has had to take a backseat.
As life circumstances change, our priorities change.
Although family was always a priority in my heart, I lost sight of this when I “found” writing, often pushing aside those things in life that were really more important.
Knowing that changes are inevitable and impact one’s deepest values, we must be willing to reevaluate, give up “the dream” for a season, and move in a new direction.
Do I still write during these last stages in my mother’s Alzheimer’s journey?
Of course. But, it has just taken on a different focus.
I Remember the Seasons is a work of the heart.
I will never forget the look on my mother’s face when she thumbed through the book and realized it was dedicated to her and Dad.
That one beautiful memory of her smile will last a lifetime.
