Although I agree with you about abortion being wrong, I still choose prochoice for several reasons. There are already so many unwanted, unloved babies who are severely abused, neglected I'm afraid illegalizing abortion there would be a lot more. My second biggest reason is from past history. Woman getting abortions in a questionable environment by some nut job, then either bleeds to death or die of an infection. This is why I chose what I do.

Comment from Dolly'sPoems
The value we put on a gift depends on who sent I expect, we don't throw away sentimental gifts that remind us of a loved one. The questions of abortion and assisted suicide are very controversial and often personal issues, love Dolly x

Patricia, This is a very beautiful and well written poem that was laid on your heart by God. I appreciate you posting it. There have ben times in my life I did not appreciate gifts like I should have. Thank you for the reminder my friend. If one person reads this and it helps me in life to honor God more it is worth way more than the six stars! May God bless you my friend! love and blessings, Teri

Thank you so much for the very important message. Not only should we treasure the gifts that our loved ones give us, we should always treasure the gift of Life that God gives us.

Comment from royowen
Of course the greatest gift is God's love through Jesus.
My mother wasn't the sweetest soul in the world, she's said horrid things to me and my siblings, so much so that three of my siblings weren't talking to her, one came to see her toward the end, and mum abused him. But my wife reminded me, "she's still your mum" so I remained by her side until she died. I don't understand abortion, children are such precious gifts. This was hard to write Patricia. So well done in writing this, people need to hear. Wonderful work, blessings Roy

Roy, my mother was not very nice to me at one time when I really needed her support and yet, she tried twice to take my life and filed. By God gave the ability to forgive and to never abandon her in her old age.

You had reason. "Honour thy parents" so they are a gift.

Comment from Robert Zimmerman
Hi Patricia: I feel the same way you expressed in the author notes on occasion. I have even received some feedback expressing their opposing views. I try to give them non offensive responses. I just want to be sure I am true to my belief. Paul said he would be all things to all people that some might be saved. I appreciated your essay greatly. -Robert-

Hi Patricia. Your essay is one written from the heart. I have trouble getting rid of anything, gift or not, that is meaningful to me. Others may not be as sentimental and can easily part with anything. Marilyn
