Life is crazy and we as individuals do not have all the answers. It seems like I hear parents always say, "I am still learning too, cut me some slack." Since I have become a parent, three and a half years ago, I have come to realize that I do not have the slightest idea what I am doing in life. I do not have all the answers, although my daughter does think that I can fix anything. It's so cute, if something breaks she says, "It's ok my mommy can fix it." I wish that that was the case in every situation. Wouldn't it be grand if when life crapped on us I (mommy) could clean it up or fix it? With all the trials in life one experiences, it would be awesome if I could waltz right into your life and say, "Presto, crap be gone or crap be fixed." Now that would be cool, right? Wrong, why would you want a hand out in this life? Isn't it your responsibility to figure it out or is it? We are all suppose to do our own R and D so that we can get the most out of our own lives, right? We are trying to see how much we can learn on our own or through others so that in the after life, we can surprise our Heavenly Father with, "Look what I can do" or "look what I know." Yes, no, I don't know. Wow I am just rambling now and not sure where I was trying to head with this post, but I guess that is why it is called "The Beginnings of R and D," I am still not sure what lies ahead. What I do know is that I want to experience life and the best way to do that is through my emotional expressions: happiness, sorrow, exhaustion, excitement, surprise, frustration... these and many other emotional expressions are my research and who I become from each of these different experiences will help me to develop into who life wants me to become! So I guess what I am trying to accomplish is telling my life experiences (research) and what I have learned so that I can help you in some way to keep moving forward and believing in yourself (development).
