Happy New Month
The world I live in is so different than the world around me... I learned a long time ago to take care of myself and never, I repeat never, make others do things that I can do for myself.
I am a man even though I am only half a man as I was paralyzed back in 1976 but I got married once and it only lasted an little over a year and I think I know why my marriage didn't work out or survive the test of time. I did for my wife like she was my master while she worked 15 -25 hours per week I cooked, cleaned, washed the cloths, dishes not to mention vacuuming and working in the yard to make our home a nice place to be. I find that my father made my mother do everything in the world for him his entire life and now that she is dead I am finding out just how much she did do for him.
Now I am in a wheelchair so people don't think I can do much at all, however I can do anything the rest of the world can do except for lifting and reaching high things. If you give me a large stick or grabber I can reach things up high too.
My dad had mom cook for him, clean up after him, put up with his rudeness when he didn't' like something she cooked he would say stuff like, "What the hell is this" "Don't ever make this shit again" and those are the polite comments he made over the years that I heard him say.
Now I love my dad so much but he called me up the other day and asked me how to work his microwave... Now how long have people been using micro wave ovens? He couldn't open the door. I explained it to him but he couldn't figure it out so he skipped out on eating popcorn that night. I drove over to his house and showed him how to open the thing.. I got a call from dad the other day to ask me how to use the microwave so I told him to push the button 5 then 0 and "start". He did and it worked. I get a call today and my dad asks me if I know where he can find a foot doctor. At the end of the conversation I am thinking his feet are causing him problems. He finally tells me when I call him to give him a phone number and all he needs is his toe nails clipped. My mom use to clip my dad's toe nails, is that not nasty or what? I think how sweet my mother was to do these nasty things for my father but she did everything he asked her to do for him.
I think back to the days of my marriage and I did it all and my x needed to do nothing she was so darn lazy she wouldn't even get dressed at times but she was a mess with a capital Ass. I think if I wanted my marriage to do over again I guess I am supposed to treat the person I am deeply in love with to do all my biddings. I guess they are supposed to wipe my ass too. Hmmmm...
GOD has it right when HE comes first then your wife and family then the neighbors. That is the order of things and then the woman is supposed to commit themselves to their man but men are supposed to put GOD first and if they are putting GOD first then the wife is to be loved as she were him. If a man has a wife he is to live his life for her and watch over her and take care of her it isn't the way man has turned everything to say we are better than the woman. That is just not true, Love your woman and if you love GOD you will never treat your lady wrong.
The toe nail thing got me to thinking how much my mother loved and would do anything my father asked her to but that means she lived the world the way GOD wants us all too and she knew GOD so her journey was over last month and she completed the race 100% a lover of man and her man. Not to mention all the people in the world. I miss you mom...
