It's been one of those weeks!!

Hi blogies and blogettes,

Had one of those absolutely cr*p weeks and I thought if I put in down in print, I would have gone on to write something along the length of War and Peace - I kid you not it's been ******** and to top it all I heard that a dear old friend's daughter lost her battle with cancer - her daughter was only a couple of years older than me and leaves children who are just starting to bloom into adulthood and are at a time when they needed their mum most.

My friend just turned 80 and is active running a welfare section, she is always caring and there for others especially at times like these when she usually sends a beautiful poem to the person she is helping. Thinking of her and her loss makes me feel selfish in feeling bad about what's been happening in my space and realise we always have to count our blessings and cherish each day.

Whenever I was down she would remind me of a poem she wrote :

Tomorrow will be yesterday
Is what I always say.
Tomorrow will be yesterday
And you will have your day.

The future may look bleak it's true
But do not worry Dear
For God will take good care of you
If all my prayers He'll hear.

You've weathered many other storms
And come through them to see
The sunshine on the other side
And this will surely be.

So try to take life as it comes
And smile when this you see.
And don't forget that come what may
All will be history.
(Rita S)


My friend lost dozens of her family in death camps in the holocaust and now she has had to face this sorrow, all I can do is try to be there for her as she has been there for me and many others.

If my prayers are heard God will in deed take care of her in her time of need.

I hope she does not mind my putting her poem out here but the words can apply to many of us at sometime in our lives, as I read over her words again I will try to keep looking for the sunshine and smile when this period in our lives is history!!
