A Grandfather’s Love, Demonstrated in Freeze Pops

As the weather starts to break a bit, we make plans for Spring Break, and I book my kids in a variety of Summer camps,  I am reminded that this summer will be different because we won't have my dad to share the summer with,  My dad kept these on the rotation, in every flavor. Not even sure how he gets them now because I think they are the equivalent of "kid crack"--made with artificial coloring, flavoring, and sugar . To my kids though, these freeze pops were love and summer wrapped in a bow. (As an Amazon associate, I am compensated for qualifying purchases.)

I don't know about you, but sometimes I need extra encouragement,  especially on Mondays! Today, my encouragement came from a couple of old TV shows--"Behind the Music" and Lifetime Intimate Portraits". 

They were series where celebrities shared their lives and career trajectories with viewers. I'm nosey by nature. So, I have always been a voracious reader of biographies and TV shows like these are my jam too. And because I have watched a lot of them, I have had time to reflect on the ultimate lesson. And, here is what I have concluded.

Life, in its infinite complexity will get better, if you remember to never ever give up. It is that simple. You have to put one foot in front of the other. Keep moving towards your identified goals.  

Don't give up. 

The weather will get better. The sun will shine brighter. The sky will clear up. And your situation will improve. So, let's keep walking together into the sunshine, even if we don't see it, we shall keep walking until it comes.
