This weeks Challenge
”Alternate Reality”
There have been two people in my life who were/are a big influence. My mother and my husband. I would definitely have an alternate reality if my dad had raised me instead of mom as they were total opposites that I have no idea how they ever found each other, dad being old school macho with an attitude women were supposed to jump and run for their husbands every whim, and mom with her belief women could be and do anything and that women should be appreciated and treated with respect instead of subservient.
Husbands? Some of them are baddies as are some of the women men marry. For me, another husband is nearly unthinkable as mine belongs in the category of “one of the best”. People can walk a lot of different walks in this life and I am sure I could have if I had chosen other environments over family and the values my mom and husband have. I am pretty satisfied with my life, no really bad stories to tell because my mom was a major and positive influence and my husband has been as well. Looking at the horror stories people write or tell or that we hear on the news are examples of the opposite ends of what is in my world. I’m very thankful for both of my major influence as the alternative reality is a dreadful thought.
