IWSG JANUARY 2019:

Welcome to the first IWSG of this new year.
I wish you all a very happy one.
My thanks as always go to Alex and his many helpers
In making this a wonderful site.
 
HOPES FOR THE NEW YEAR:
Despite last year being not a good one.
There is still hope in my heart.
That life for me will be better
From the very start.
 
I appreciate all have their problems,
When life goes the wrong way.
But we have to make the most of life,
Each and every day.
 
Whatever the weather is doing.
Whether people are not being kind.
One has to wear a smile on our face.
For inner peace to find.
 
Oh I realise I've been a pain of late.
With a brevement knocking on my door.
Losing a son was an expeirience,
I was not reaady for.
 
After a disasterous Christmas,
I realise I still have hopes and dreams.
So I'm starting this new year positive,
That is my idea scheme.
 
I wish you all a Happy New Year.
May all your wishes and dreams come true.
Being kind and helpful to others
Will certainly see us through.

      Many thanks Andrew, I don't think the pain will ever go but life do go on and John wouldn't have wanted me to be a pain in the neck to anyone. so am trying to pick up the pieces bit by bit.

    Peace and happiness are things we have to find ourselves because we can't rely on other people. With hope, it's possible though.
