The Quietness of Me

Aaaah, silence.

Here, in my own space, I can sit quietly.
I can think about the serious things that are part of my life.
There are difficulties, yes, but there are also aspects I wouldn't trade for anything.
As my life has changed, so has my outlook, and my approach.
I've found that even when I feel nothing but despair,
There is an underlying strength that does not fail me.
My determination has increased tenfold.
My sense of self is greater than it was a year ago.
Nothing will be an obstacle if I choose not to let it be one.
I have a goal:
Happiness.
It has characteristics:
Unconditional love, respect, trust, loyalty, equality.
I will reach my goal; I believe that with all that I am.
I do not know when, or how, or where it will happen.

But it will happen.

With a lot of prayer, and a little luck,
It will happen.

I can feel it...

In my heart.

Hiya J sweetie, thanks for your lovely words on my blog.

Yeah, we had some nice family time and we enjoyed it. It' nice to remeber the good times.

The place where we scattered the ashes is where we used to have many a family holiday when we were young, so there are a lot of memories there.


I hope you are having a better time of things. I hope that you and L are gonna come out of the bad times and into the sunshine soon.

Luv caz xxxx

Thank you ladies for visiting me. It's nice to see some friendly, familiar faces on one's front stoop! Take care and be well.

Hey, love!

Thanks for your lovely comment. You were one of my first friends, too actually. I think around the time you two decided to get a blog was the same time I started posting under CTV.

Yup, can't wait until NYC! I've been looking forward to it all year long. It's been delayed, however. I think I'll be leaving sometime around the end of August.

I miss you two, a lot. I hope everything is going well in your lives and you two are happy. Tell L. I said hi!

Much love.

I don't tell you enough, but you deserve nothing less! You are such a wonderful, kind and loving person and I hope you know that in your heart.

Love you dearly!
