Good and bad aspects of life
Permalink  

G'day  friends,

Well, life can really throw some curve balls at you cant it?
you all know its only been a few weeks since ben passed on but
its 4 years today since my mother passed away from a 4 year battle with
demenitia and alzimers.
Its been a long struggle for me as we were very close and I'm slowely comming to turms with it, I guess it all takes time , and I still miss Ben terrribly, but I know some day he'll help me find another friend.

We all think we control our lives, but we dont. sometimes I just want to punch th big guy in the nose, other times im amzaed at what he does , I guess thats just part of life, but it hurts.. any way , got some flowers and going to visit mums site today, oh her birthday is on the 19th of this month, she would have been 85 .

All I ask is dont take any one or any thing forgranted, you never know when they might not be around..

Know what your going through. I've just been back to the uk lost my mum 3 weeks ago. I'll miss our weekly phone chats. I think of the fun times we had when I was a kid in the uk, look back in fondness, and a smile at the fun times.

You survive because you're strong, and that's a great quality.
You are allowed to mourn and miss those who have gone, but just think of the strength you have gained from knowing them, spending time with them, loving them. They've left you a great legacy.
Even your best pet or puppy mate. We are always stronger for these experiences.
Just think of the qualities you have to offer the next person or pet in your life.

Pretty birdie Buddy. Looks cute and young enough to teach new language.
Enjoy your new companion who came to you. That must be a good thing.

Mum used to talk to herself all the time. When we teased her she would reply "Its the only way to have an intelligent conversation!" biggrin
