So anyone who knows me, knows that I am a HUGE Oprah fan…I mean I am a loyal follower of the Oprah way! If she was a religion, I would faithfully follow it and that is saying a lot since I’m not really “religous” in the traditional sense of the word. Monday’s episode, which I saw today, is about men who are single parents. One lost his wife to breast cancer and one man lost his wife after she had their daughter. Both were amazing stories of selflessness, survival and love. There were a couple of other stories too, just as important and compelling, but the first two men struck my heartstring. They re-taught me how precious and fleeting life is and how spectacular my life really is. I have an amazing husband who is right there in the trenches with me. I have many luxuries that other parents raising children don’t have and I really do get a lot of help from others. I know I would have a mental and possibly physical breakdown if I was a single parent and my heart and mind can’t even begin to comprehend what it would be like if Travis passed away right now. So, thanks Oprah for giving me an “ah-ha” moment.
