Thanks π but it's my sister's injections not mine. She has low vision and we are hopeful she will regain her sight β€οΈ and be able to Read books π and sew and do watercolor again...
Thanks for sharing your heartfelt thoughts and insights here! As I replied in email, it's a blessing to be able to express ourselves here without fear of troll's or other things on places like X or Facebook. I do follow some folks on Substack . I just haven't had time free of the sometimes miserable pain I live with.
Thanks for letting me share my grief and part of my history.
When we have lost so many,how much we appreciate good souls in our life. Some for a moment or so, some hopefully longer!
Blessings ππΉπΆπ¨
There are many of us who understand the gnawing you feel, biting at your soul. I am one. In my life, there is nobody left from my childhood who knew me before age 24. My grandparents, parents, brothers, aunts, uncles, and most of my cousins are all gone. Yes, I have my wife, children, and grandchildren, but that missing hole from our beings never disappears.
My heart goes out to you during these days of woe... but starting this, my sixty-ninth summer, I pray I get to suffer the pains of life a few more years. I got stuff I want my grandsons to hear from my lips, read from my stories, hoping they can hold in their hearts the understanding that who I am is more because of these people... they never met, were, and the effect they had on my life. We are what life made us for good or otherwise, and that is the legacy of our lives.
Aww, thanks π both of you for your caring and prayers β€οΈ! It means so much to my soul and I'm sending prayers and hugs π€ back. Please excuse the delay!
Too many distractions fill my day.
Time for myself to write is a struggle, some just want to burst my bubble π¬.
Keep posting every day in my blog. Didn't miss one day
Even if felt like it.
Keep taking random notes πΆ
On scrap paper π
Vignettes may be my only key to writing and perhaps my sanity!
I'm having a tough time again,
It's hard to deal with PTSD and have triggers flung at you.
To see people you thought you knew decide that an election results are more important than you and past history.
To wonder π€ if any of it was real.
The Barilla elbows pasta π
Are now half the size as last time we bought them.
The raspberries were $1.99 ( that I wrote about yesterday)
I'm feeling lost in the sauce π«
of life.
Too many years of living with strife.
πΆ
Like a ship β without an anchor
To keep me at the shore.
I seriously wonder how much more I can endure.
Tomorrow I'm going to do something different.
I'm going to recopy a couple of things I wrote a few days ago.
It takes a lot more effort to do things like that.
In part explained it in reply to yesterday's comment.
It's not like I'm giving up.
Even if I've been close to it.
I still most days
Thank God G-d for returning my soul to me and giving me another day of life.
And for the strength to push with my broken body.
That there's a purpose for me, even if most days, I can't see it.
I wonder π€
I wonder if I'm just delusional
For thinking I should write βοΈ
About my crazy dysfunctional family and the comedy and drama in my life.
The days I played and sang on the stage despite all the grief and strife.
Always looking towards the future in search of love
Beyond life's push and shove.
Faith and beliefs have carried me
Enjoying nature πβπ« and loving to draw π² trees.
Stuck inside an apartment now,
Not many places to go.
Can't hang out in nature
God's waiting room is slow...
Peace βοΈ
