‘When The Sun Shines’

Today – I found myself walking in glorious sunshine – which was very welcome after a few darker days. As I walked – I realised just what a difference the sun makes – as to how I feel- as my spirit rose and my soul sang. I continued to think about this – as I…

‘Slowing My Pace / Riding The Waves’

Over recent days – I have started to attempt to get back into my early morning walks. I have missed walking so much – with the osteoarthritis in my knee and foot getting worse – and so it was with great determination that I set off -and I am pleased to say – I have…

‘Love Is ………

This week we celebrate our 59th wedding anniversary – and as I look back – all those years ago – I wonder if I really understood the true meaning of – ‘love’. There was a cartoon that we loved to follow – simply called – ‘Love Is – – -‘ and we identified with so…

‘Seeing Beauty’

As I travelled away for a few days break – I was actually glad that the forecast was for cooler days. Although I love the sunshine – I do find the high temperatures – that we have been experiencing – quite draining. I was quite taken – on my journey – to see the dark…

‘Allowing Time’

It’s been a very different week for me this past week – as I have struggled with acute pain – and not been able to walk – due to a cyst behind my knee. It’s been a challenge – as I have faced the fact that I can do nothing about the situation – but…
