[QUOTE="Copabanana, post: 723847, member: 18958"] look. i worked prisons over 25 years. thousands of mostly men. 8 prisons. you can do this. but you must remember. this may not be it. every day i would try to factor in the possibility this could go haywire again. there is a great freedom that can come from this way of living on the cusp. call it what you want. freedom. eternity. e has learned a great deal in his short life. what i am trying to say is that there is no result here that is in your control. just each volley as it comes at you. and the infinite grace that comes from being present and in touch with your great love and responsibility. not for e specifically. but to do the best you can. to do right as a human being and a mother. because that is who you are. who you choose to be. we cannot be attached to any one result. because we live in the great unknown. e will do what he does. he is a good boy. he will be a good man. but the road will be his. as ours are ours. good, good job. i keep thinking of the prayer. if i die before i wake...because i am intensely aware of my own mortality lately. i do not take living for granted. because i am way closer to the end than the beginning. that's part of it. but i believe all of us as we live are a heartbeat away from eternity. you have an opportunity now to turn your focus to you. and e has the great gift of becoming who he is meant to be. the person.
