The Box

The Box

Just open the box…..
Lift the lid…
Look inside…
Take a breath
And……
Maybe
Just maybe
 you’ll see
A gift- something you have always wanted
A sound- that reaches into your dark places and fills you with untold joy
A mirror- to see how you have become…. So  very …  not you
A hand  - that reaches out for you , gently and with confidence
A belief -  that you had lost but now waiting for you to pick up and  trust
Courage – to change the things you can but mostly to give you strength to…
Just open the box…

Hi Tony,.... yes indeed as I get older I recognise more and more that chances are there to be taken and not avoided                                      Lewis Carroll said, “In the end, we only regret the chances we didn't take, relationships we were afraid to have and the decisions we waited too long to make"......I do things now that I would never have done years ago..and happy that I have....I went skydiving a couple of weeks ago...I was terrified ..I wont  lie to you.....but so so pleased that I did it..despite a bruised knee...thank you as always dear friend for your lovely comments  xxxx

Wasted Love

Wasted Love

Don’t tell me that love’s never wasted,
there’s always a little remains,
that love never dies...

Goodbye

Goodbye

Almost in silence you appeared.
Pushing all else to one side and relentlessly

Live it Well

Live it Well

An image staring back at me
a face I don’t yet know,
The mirror says ‘I never lie
you’...

Sharing

What shall I say,
to impress,

what platform on,

should I show off my new dress....

Effort

Your kids become you

If not for yourself, then prove your love and do it for them.
They don’t deserve the agony and pain...

CHANGE

From voices to voice,
from madness to sadness,
the words I heard were my own…
