Julie's Story

Hello Everyone, Life's changes! Wow!! Can you imagine how much change has happened since grammar and high school? The most wonderful gift in life is ourselves. What a treasure, we were able to grow and keep moving forward, some doing great enjoying retirement, and others... bitter at the world because they didn’t like how they were brought up or the house and neighborhood they grew up in, still holding anger at something or someone they don’t even remember anymore. Most have leaned towards God, is it because their at a point of their lives of aloneness or is it that they don’t have anything or anyone to look forward to; Yea, I know maybe no one wants to read what I’ve written, but just take a moment in truth and read through it, it just may bring a little light of joy, you never know;. Every day for the past 45+ years I have missed Calipat, going to church, living in my neighborhood and learning from my grandparents as well as most of the old people in our town. Sometimes I think I must have been raised in a bubble. I always thought life was great…Yes, believe it or not, my dad sheltered my sister and I so strongly that when we were in the big world all alone, it was probably the biggest surprise of our life.

And bitterness has never entered my heart. I have lost school mates to one of the most critical illnesses in life today and that is cancer. And when I was diagnosed, it was the first time in my life that I realized the world was not flat, it was round and without balance I would fall off the edge at any given time. When I lost my sister, I remember all of the school kids that would leave their home to walk to school in the mornings and the farmers planes were spraying the crops, then it struck me just how much of our life we had lost, not even knowing that our life had been cut short back then. Today, I say this… Love life to the fullest, enjoy every moment so it can keep that beautiful smile on your face every morning when you wake up, and when you thank God for everything make sure it’s because you only got to know him better and not for the first time. We may get up in age, but life is like the best wine, aged with an elegance of life and still has a high price... a good taste of our yesterdays are never forgotten. Life is but a dream and if we lose that we have lost it all. Love ya all, Take Care, Love Queen 1966! Cher - You Haven't Seen The Last Of Me
