Fear

Wasn't planning on doing this layout, but Tracey Jackson's stunning layout about the same fear inspired me tremendously! Thanx for the inspiration Tracey! This is for the Oct. Imperfect Lives challenge, where we have to scrap our biggest fear/phobia. The twists required us to use a black background and a skull somewhere in the layout. The journaling on the tag behind the photo reads as follows: "My biggest fear I have in life is dying before my two children are grown-up and independent. My heart breaks every time I think of little orphaned children who have lost both their mother and father and aren't old enough to understand their situation or know anything about their family's heritage. Besides that, who will look after them if I'm not there? Who will nurture them, love them and be there for them like only a mother can? I never want to lose them or have any of them lose a parent until the time is right. But is the time ever "right" to lose a loved one? Unfortunately that is not for us to decide, it's all up to God! I just pray to God to spare me for my children and spare my children for me. I can't imagine living life without them, but I know that the afterlife will be a better place for me if I know they can look after themselves and aren't just 2 lost little souls on earth. May God grant me the "right" to R.I.P. knowing that my 2 boys are well taken care of!"

I know this is a bit morbid, but I'm sure it's something that most of, if not all of us think of at some or other time in our lives. On a lighter note, I must say that this lo looks quite funny to me with the skull stuck over my face, but in actual fact it's not a laughing matter - don't know if I'm supposed to laugh or cry now??? Anyway, thanx for taking a peek! ~Gail
