I think I would be devastated and incredibly dysfunctional afterwards, but I do accept death as a part of life. I am fairly confident I could continue living, although the grief and loss would be unbearable. Perhaps I'd be more afraid of how that would change the core of who I am, being without the people who obviously contribute so deeply to my peace and happiness. <br /><br />Parenting - that's funny. You're the one who was much more confident than I. I remember I voiced these same fears whilst pregnant with Lydia and you reassured me. I guess it's time to return the favour! <br /><br />Failings and insecurities - there's nothing wrong with those so long as you own them and don't let them control your life. I think we learn from them and it helps our kids to know that it's okay to have flaws and that it helps to build inner strength. That's what I tell myself anyway ;)Soniahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12475692407191953949noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6994983040768142422.post-56421508619926349952012-05-04T19:07:37.038+01:002012-05-04T19:07:37.038+01:00P.S.
