so much has happened and keeps happening that i feel overwhelmed by it all. there are good things and bad things.
its funny how so many things can happen in such a short space of time. the last three years have felt like such a roller coaster and some days i want to get off and other days i would happily stay on the ride forever.
when i look around i see hurt all around. people who are ill, desperate to find 'mr right', financial worries and so on.
it would be very easy for me to say that everything is hunky dory and couldnt be better.
jim and i have had a difficult time with such a lot of things going on with our families. things that would tear people apart but actually we are stronger than ever.
i always here people say" if there is a god then why is this happening?"
it is a question with many answers but for me i believe and always will, that when things get tough it is easy to blame someone else for how you react or deal with the situation.
when i lost my nan i felt such pain, i miss her i wanted her to meet jorja and to just enjoy spending more time with her.
my nan was a very brave lady and battled with cancer for many years. she had had enough and if i had to choose between spending more time with her for my own selfish reasons or letting her go and be in peace i know i can take great comfort in knowing that she is now pain free and happy. what more could i possibly want for her now.
life can always be bitter sweet, just when everything is going 'to plan' a spanner get's thrown into the works.
it is very easy to dwell on the hard and painful things that happen and forget about all the amazing things that are and keep happening.
i have had my fair share of misery but i have enjoyed many fantastic and exciting things too.
so this is a tribute to my nan, i still love her dearly and miss seeing her face but now is the time to remember all the amazing and fun times we have shared. she has had a lot of impact on my life and i want to live it to the full.
i know it is easy to write about good times when things are going well but it is important that we write about the good things when it gets tough.
it is true that every cloud has a silver lining and i am finding mine .............

Life really hasnt been easy the last few years, I fully agree with you!! But I love your positive outlook Lilly and it's rubbing off on me too! Youre right it is important to dwell on the good things when the bad things are drowning you. All I can think of is my man and my future! It's great! I love you! xx
