They Can'T Define Me

I've heard it all before I wouldn't graduate school I couldn't hold a job or have kids My dad said I shouldn't let others stop me. He said prove them all to be fools So that is what I did. Wouldn't I' wouldn't make it through my lessons I'd never live on my own at all that I'd live with my parents my whole life. So I left it with God through Him it'd happen. In His time not mine, as alone I will fall. Couldn't I couldn't hold down a job for long. I couldn't get married, no one would want me I couldn't have kids of my very own But I was sure God would prove them all wrong I'd just have to wait and see. Shouldn't That I shouldn't try to drive a car I shouldn't expect a normal life. Again dad's words broke through don't let people control who you are. I've done it all and God gave me a family and thirty one years ago I said I do and am now someone's wife. ******** ************ As a kid I never gave up I used to joke that if I ever did get married I'd marry a model and if I ever had kids I'd want a little girl then a little boy with blonde hair and blue eyes. God heard my silent dreams when my heart spoke. This life I have is my own kind of normal I live my life as God planned it and not how the worlds views of me would be as they proved to be total myths and lies. I'm the child with health issues yet my two siblings quit school. so I was the only one to graduate. I learned to drive but won't unless there is an emergency. I prefer to walk or get rides. I feel safer that way. I married a model and have his pictures framed Then got my little girl first and then my blonde hair little boy with bright blue eyes. I learned to drive to say I could. and if I wasn't able to do something I wasn't ashamed as it was just something I wasn't supposed to do and of what others think why should I care. they don't know me at all. © March 2019, Bonnie J Hollywood-Cutts
