There are many times we take a moment to reflect on the things that shape our world. The upcoming elections of a new president, the state of how our communities are and our belief system are all topics that deserve reflection. Today I am reflecting on a moment in time that is special to me. As with anything our children follow in our footsteps even when they don't want to. My mother followed in the footsteps of her mother and I in mine and now my daughters have stepped into the footprints I have left. They are mother's and one is a grandmother at 40 years of age.
Glancing in a mirror I can see glimpses of my mother coming out in me and today, she can see me in her. Reflection is both an awakening of sorts and a validation that life does repeat itself and renew itself in those around you. I have risen to the top of the matriarchial ladder and as I look around, i can see myself in all of my children and I can see bits and pieces of myself in my grandchildren and even my great-grandson. Reflection and renewal and eclectic mix of all things that make us who we are.
Embrace the electicity in you...
the "Eclectic Diva"... gather your bits and pieces.
