Chapter 30
Clara
There are times when you sit down and take stock of your life, and play back events you wish you could have changed ... But then again when you look back; you realise that everything that has happened to you good or bad was meant to happen to help you learn,grow, and evolve.
We sometimes need to train ourselves to see the beauty in every situation and appreciate the gift it has to offer . There is always a lesson to be learned in the way someone treats you or whatever curve ball life throws at you .You ultimately learn how to be resilient and swerve around the curve balls thrown at you .
I've always said that if you give things time and look at them from a different perspective, you not only see the fruit for the tree but you understand how the tree evolved from being a seed to producing fruit. No mater how much bad fruit a tree can bare. There is always good fruit to be found.

Jen had been taken in by the cops and charges were laid . We didn't drop them even though we knew she had a kid a year younger than my son , it made no difference cause he was in Italy.

34ClaraPeople often say ;you never forget your first love , but truth be told you can never forget who taught you love , made you feel loved, experience love, make love, and give love unconditionally in return. I've always said making love has more to do than just sex .It is the combination of two energies fusing together to create life and love. I have a rule ;you have to know and trust the person you're "making love to " as much as yourself . Communication and honesty is always key . You don't learn how to speak with out words overnight or hear someone's heart without them saying a word. Loving someone unconditionally requires understand and patience .The person you want to be with should compliment and not complete you . You should be a whole being by yourself . I'm also human. I'm a woman too. I have my insecurities ; I freak out sometimes either cause I feel like I'm not thin enough,exciting

ClaraThe heart has a way of healing itself. No matter how bruised, or broken ; our ability to love even when it hurts helps with the healing processes. Everything heals eventually;physically or emotionally .To know that you are loved is the best feeling ever. You were either held by someone in your darkest hour , meant something to someone when you felt like nothing or you gave love and melted a heart of ice . Fact is you opened up your heart to love.We all have reasons as to why we do what we do or react in certain situations. Life happens we can't control it ; how we respond and react can make a difference .Andrew's grandfather was with him when Brent and I made our way back to his hospital room Seppi smiled when he saw both Brent and me enter the room .
