scenes of life...
Scenes constantly flash through my mind...scenes of the past, present, and hopes for the future. So much is unknown and yet so much is taken for granted. The things we do, the people we see and love in our life. Confusion surrounds decisions and choices to be made...making them alone for the first time. Exciting, scary and overwhelming at times, and all of it always new. One day, one step at a time. That's all we're asked to do. Live today, planning for the future but not taking for granted that there will be a tomorrow. How precious life is.
So much has happened since I last posted. A friend died from cancer a few weeks ago. Another friends husband has been told his brain tumor has grown back and he only has a couple of weeks to live. That's another 5 children who will grow up without their fathers, and another two beautiful women who have lost their best friend, lover, provider and partner in life and so much more. Please think of them and pray for comfort for them and their children.
I was going to share what's been happening here but in light of the above, I feel it's not the right time. I think because they are men both around my age it has really shaken me and led me to think that even though my husband and I have separated, I am so grateful that he is still around for our girls. That's something I never want to take for granted. They need their mum and their dad.
A sombre post I know...but it's just how I'm feeling at the moment and really, my life is not just about me. Others also suffer and need my support and love and care. It's the least I can do.
Take care,
Love Nel xo
