Is there anything that you would say again to someone, that would make a difference to your life or theirs?
This is a tough one because if we can go back and say the unsaid or wipe out what we did say then we change too much to even contemplate. If for example I had said No when my first husband asked me to marry hiom then I would not have my wonderful sons and grandchildren.
Instead I like to think of the last words that someone spoke to me. My sister in law was terminally ill and in hospital. I phoned her to ask if I could come visit and she was desperately tired and said that she would rather not. I said it was okay and I would call her again soon and see how she was doing. When I said goodbye to her she said "God bless you always Susan."
I put down the phone and in my heart I knew they were the last words she would ever say to me. She died a couple of days later without my having been able to speak to her again. Those words changed my life in a way I can't actually define.
My Question
If you could have one gift you could give to your kids or loved one - regardless of any cost what would it be and why?
