    ON THE WAY...

    So I sat down to rest a while, laying down my load.
    I was tired, so weary, of being lost on this lonely road.

    Forever and ever it seemed to take, and I shed yet another tear:
    Just how long would my journey take? When would the road become clear?

    My soul was bruised from all I'd seen and my heart bled every day,
    Not just for my own sorry state, but for the poor souls I'd met on the way.

    So as I was resting there, I met other travellers passing by,
    Some would help, some in such pain, but all of them would try.

    And slowly, slowly, each one of them, would eventually bravely arise,
    Ready to get back on the road, rested, and with hope in their eyes.

    I'd look around as I bid them goodbye and I was always surprised to see,
    That once where there rested only me, many travellers sat in my company.

    We would talk and share and laugh and cry, each soul within the reach of a hand,
    And when a soul left to get back on the road, then yet another would manage to stand.

    Still tired and bruised, but stronger somehow - I knew my life-long journey would resume that day.
    Smiling and armed with hope, I stepped back on my road, knowing I'd meet many good souls on the way...
    Tiff xxx

    A poem, freshly written by me, with this very morning as my friend.

    One day, we will all be able to stand and see the road more clearly. I hope that comforts you a little.
    May that day come soon for all of us...
    Much Love Always,
    Tiff xxx

    Beautiful poem Tiff,how are you?are you still on the diet and going to the gym?I know you have your brothers wedding coming up(don't think i have missed it?)Hope you have a lovely day and i am sure you will look great in your new dress.I wondered if it is getting any easier to go out the more often you do it? Anyway i think you have made great strides and should be proud of yourself.I am ok,not down in the depths of depression but if i am honest not happy either.I have not had much happiness in my life,maybe the early days of my marriage ,i think i was happiest when my children were small,i loved every stage from baby hood until they started school but i think from then on they start becoming more independant and need you less.Which is how it should be,you want your children to become confidant independant adults but i am left with a sense of not being needed anymore.I know what would make me happy a "soul mate" for want of a better word but to be realistic i think the chances of finding one are pretty low,no matter ,as i said i am not unhappy i can take pleasure in the small things in life,a sunny day,a good book ect.I am still in touch with "N" but he has told me he does not want a relationship so i know where i stand,we are just text friends.I suppose i did hope that when he had got over his x girlfriend we might have some sort of relationship but it is not going to happen.Yet i think texting fills a need in both of us,me becausei need a friend and have always got on better with males for some reason,him i am not sure,maybe he is flattered that someone likes him or maybe he just needs a friend too.Sorry for the long ramble,sundays have never been a good day for me,i think too much lol.

    Yeah, i always seem to be on the go, lol

    aww thanks hun, and how are you doing?

    Yeah, im always here for people, anytime.

    One of my mates atm, is really going through it, their child has cancer and has 5 months left to live. What do you say? All i can do is just support them as best as possible. and be here to listen.

    I had a lightbulb moment a few weeks ago, i would like to do a project on depression, i want you and anyone here to be involved if you want. Im thinking of sending it to one of my many contacts, the more people that know about depression, and that can understand it, and know they are not alone, the more depression and other mental illnesses can be recognised and show people that there is hope and others. Let me know if any of yas are interested?

    Tiff you are a true star, one that shines soo bright, and lightens up the way.

    keep it up hun

    much love always
