The other day, I read a journal about greatness

I quickly question what is greatness.  For me, greatness could be as small as helping my son learn to tie his shoes.  He is still trying; I know one day he will get it.

She talked about also being extraordinary.  What does it mean; Dictionary.com defines it 1) beyond what is usual, ordinary, regular, or established; 2) exceptional in character, amount, extent, degree...noteworthy, remarkable. 

What is usual or ordinary or regular.  I believe there are different levels of usual or ordinary or regular.

I had missed the season finale for Grey's Anatomy; but I recorded it while we were gone.  We went to John's home town to visit since he was not going to be able to attend his brother's graduation this week.  We took DJ to meet his family.  His mother fell in love with DJ.  She spoiled him so much.  She and him had a great time; so did we.  I am so glad we went, even though we drove 8 hours to get there, so it was a total of 16 hours of driving.

But to get back to what I was talking about.  Meredith is talking to a therapist about her mother cutting her wrist in front of her and that she did not call 911 till she passed out.  Her therapist respond why she waited to call, and she did it because her mother would be upset if she would have called them.  She asked her if her mother really wanted to kill herself, and she said yes.  However, she later realize that her mother told her before she died to be extraordinary.  Meredith always saw her mother as a gifted, talented, extraordinary surgeon; and she assumed that is what her mother was talking about.  To be a surgeon like she was, but she realize that her mother was asking her to be extraordinary in life.

Can it be that simple........

Yes, it can.  One of her commentor respond that nothing is more powerful than the greatness of LOVE.  Love is the parent to all other accomplishments.....

I seek for the love of who I am.  I have flaws, and I know that no one is prefect, but we strive to make the least mistake in our lives or better yet, someone to learn from mistake or other people's mistake is how I believe it should be.

But to love someone for who they are is what I love the most.  To feel that extraordinary acceptances is a wonderful feeling.  It is peace....

I am not saying to accept there flawness but to be there for them in realization, in learning, and in change if that happens.....  Because it is in one self to change and wanting to change for the happening to be done.  It is in ourselves that have to live this life and decide what or how we want to live it, but it is a Beautiful Ride like Gary Allan would sing or better yet Garth Brooks, The Dance.  I wouldn't want to miss this dance.

It is extraordinary......

Till next time.....
