Weekday Reflection: Giving

By , About.com GuideOctober 12, 2009

Follow me on:

Read: "Focusing on what we give up is not nearly as satifsying as focusing on what we give." -- Father Paul Manning, St. Philip Church, Clifton, New Jersey

Reflect: Do I focus too much on what my child's special needs have forced me to give up? Has that been a satisfying or productive way of thinking? Even if just for today, can I focus on what I give, or what I have been given?

Respond in the comments with your own thoughts on this quote and how it applies to your life with your child.

Every weekday, take a moment to read, reflect, and respond to a passage from a book, blog, or article. ... More Reflections
