Last night while cleaning the baby keep getting in the way so we laid him in his bed.. Upon completing what I was doing, I went in the room to check on him and my son had crawled out of his bed and was behind the door, helping me to open the door so he could get out..Yes, he's 6 months and has mastered the military crawl on his belly!
I laughed so hard as I picked him up. At an early age, he knows what he want. Whatever measures he needs to take, he's doing it already.. BUSTING out.
The same way we carry babies for nine months, when they are ready to Bust out, they will began the process through the canal into the real world. They are soon cut off from the cord and are forced to live, breath and learn on their own( with guidance, love and support of course). I did wonder though, what happens if the cord is never cut? It eventually dries up and falls off.
That's the same way we must approach living our lives and taking on responsibility for our own actions. We can only expect so much from our parents and family. Eventually, that cord is going to dry out.
Life is the biggest teacher. We have great examples and some examples that sill leave us confused. In stead of being concerned with who supports us and wants the best, BUST out and go for yours. Fall on your face, lose it all if you have too.. BUT, let YOUR experiences teach you...
I BUSTED out at age 19. My cord was my mother marrying and moving to another state. Was the transition hard, heck yes. I went from having my mom doing EVERYTHING to me learning to do it for myself. That's a lesson I'll never forget because it set me up to appreciate my LIFE.. I've learned through the many sacrifices, that if I never BUSTED OUT, i'd still be living an unfilled life..I would've never mustered the courage to leave it all and start all over again with my daughter, in another state with no immediate family( but her father's family, who welcomed me and we're supportive and still are)
I BUSTED OUT and trust me, I have no thoughts on going back.. couldn't if I wanted to anyway!!! LOL
