Hello one and all..... sorry I am so rubbish at posting these days, life does just get in the way...
Anyhow, I am down south in the mighty county of Essex, enjoying spending time with old friends and family. This year more than ever I need it, I am not going to go into details here just yet, maybe never, but this month has been one trial after another.
Normally I would be going insane and running around trying to put all the pieces back together, but not this time. I just relax and let it wash over me, knowing, deep inside somewhere, the world will continue on no matter what I do or don't do, and there is someone around who if I leave it up to them they will make sure everything turns out alright, even if I disagree with it at the time.
I went to church yesterday, to a christingle service. An old church of mine, West Leigh Baptist Church, it was totally awesome, it hadn't changed much and there were some people there that I knew very well 14 years ago who i hadn't seen since. People I loved, no do still love, for the time hadn't changed my feelings towards them. 14 years is almost half my life, and theirs as well, however, we recognised each other, spoke, hugged and I have to admit to crying a bit as well. I am going to meet up with him and his family sometime soon. It will be awesome and emotional.
Whilst down here I met up with another old friend, a guy called Pip Wilson, check his blog out!! I knew this man 16 years ago, and we have spoke via email for the last 5 years after I got back in touch as I needed him... and he answered and was there for me. I am working on my emotional literacy, and he has provided some tools to help, and an amazing amount of support. I have to ask you, how would you react if after 11 years, some strange guy who you worked alongside for a couple of years suddenly gets in touch and says HELP!! Would you help? Or would you turn away? I would like to think I would help, but I am not sure... Pip didn't even hesitate... and for that Pip, I love you.
All in all this year has been VERY up and down... but I am still here.
To those that I know, I love you. To those I don't, I love you too....
I hope everyone has a great time this Christmas. Share the love between you all.
I wish you all enough....
