I always seem to find the words when I am away from the computer, as soon as I sit to spill my guts something stops me an almost invisible block of my thoughts.
Life has been strained to say the least, the fact that I am struggling these days seem so meaningless in the big scheme of things.

My Ben is alive my family is Healthy I am cured and there is food on my table, I feel guilty for not being completely and utterly grateful for the blessings in my life.

Maybe I should re-phrase ..... I am grateful, but I am perturbed, I do feel blessed, but with an overwhelming feeling of despair.

The words, the words I need so desperately just wont flow and yet I feel an unrelenting need for release but I just cant find those damn words. Where the hell are they?

They seem to be lost in a pit of murky water, just as the water begins to clear and the sediment settles another thing just stirs the mud to the surface and I have to start all over again.

So a very wise and wonderful woman said to me start off small with just one thought and push publish, so that's what I am doing writing this thought and then pushing PUBLISH........

So good to see you back, thank you for visiting me. I will reply to your e mail when I make a cup of tea in a few minutes :)
I do know what you mean about words finding themselves when you're not at the computer.
Am pleased you hit publish, I'm sure the words will find you when you're not searching too hard for them, xx

Hello Shazzie

It's 2.20am here and I have no idea why I am still up. Just wanted to stop and thank you for your visit. It made my night.

Sorry to hear that things are still not great in your world but here's a little tip about those elusive words. Carry a notebook and pen at all times. I used to write with pen and paper a lot at my pub once, remember that? It helped me get it all down or the bare bones of it anyway while it was fresh in my mind.


Take care special lady and when's that wedding of yours?

The day will come when you will be able to slowly reveal what you want to say.
As we get older there seems to be more on our plates when you think it should be less.
Go figure but the fact that you squeezed something out to publish says you can and will when you are ready

Dear sweet sistah,

Your package came with love and I SO appreciated seeing your handwritten notes. I wish I was there to take some of the stress away.

I'm glad you hit publish and came back to this space ... the words will start flowing.

Sending you love,
