In the rebirth of our nation there will be labor pains.
Trying to be like Sarah Connors. On your feets, soldier! Dark to light~ dark clouds bring waters, when the bright bring none.
apt metaphor. Giving birth is not the 5 seconds of screaming they show on tv. its hurry up and wait. and wait. and wait. it gets more painful as the day wears on. at points you blame your husband, and there is swearing. you have to work really hard to remain calm, for the sake of the baby. you get really hungry and exhausted and you cry. then there are problems- he's not ok, he is in distress. you are terrified. they tell you to push- its the hardest thing you have ever done. there is blood, and water and agony. Suddenly, he's out, he's here, they hand you the most beautiful angel you have ever seen. you become solemn with joy as you realize that your work has just started. ( this boy i speak of is turning 18 in a month. he's still a beautuful angel. and he weighed almost ten pounds 😂)
so beautiful and true! after 14 hours of labor the fill in doctor ( my doctor was on vaca ) told me they wanted to do a c section. the hospital was full and it was labor day and i think he was just tired. i was exhausted, but i was resolved to doing what i said out to do. i asked him "
is the baby in danger?" he said " no i dont believe so" " well then make your rounds and come check on me in a bit b/c im pushing this baby out" ..he sighed and walked away,. 3 hours later my i birthed him. blessings to you and your gift from God 👏🎶
