Wasting so much time when she could be enjoying it with family. I do hope your mother will learn to stop and smell the roses. Life is so short.

Georgia mountains. She had to always be working and help taking care of her sickly mother and helping many of the other family members. Now as an older woman I can see how this caused her to be a work-a-holic. She could never relax and just sit with the family. I can see now that her childhood created some self esteem issues and caused her to work to feel worthy. That in turn affected me as a child....I wanted my mothers attention but could not get it because she was just too busy. As she is now 70 years old, I see an unhappy woman with nothing left to give and she needs her cup filled with the love of God, but she still continues to work and not give God the time and attention she should. I pray that she does have a peaceful period in her life before it is over. This review brought so many emotions up for me.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07412367298741092481noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8713519582170578996.post-17010557307231280072015-04-30T09:23:54.287-04:002015-04-30T09:23:54.287-04:00Thank you, CARRIE!

I have a sis-in-law who wears herself out doing for others (which is admirable), but what about the days God wants us just to kick back, pull away from others, and relax? It's all about obedience, too. Many people are envious of the Amish way of life but as you said, they are people and have their problems, too.Diana Flowershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17127629740742628849noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8713519582170578996.post-51028329291119427292015-04-29T14:55:00.182-04:002015-04-29T14:55:00.182-04:00I think a lot people assume the Amish don't ha...I think a lot people assume the Amish don't have problems like the rest of us.
