I Can't Take Anymore..

Of this stuff thats called life!

As a very old lady told me about a week ago - "My dad told me that life's great - if you don't weaken."

Made me laugh - but it is true. 

We've had a completely horrible year - illnesses, death you name it - culminating last week with neighbour continuing harrassment claims against us until I stopped feeling weak and feeble and rang the police. Sorted.

Life has a lot of nasty bits - but even more positives and even that wonderful thing called love. You love your granddaughter. I'm sure she loves you. She'll need you when she's older.

Think on it.  :) x

Most of us feel life that at times. But we take each moment at a time. I'm sure you have experienced decent periods of your life. You need to slowly work your way back to that state. Not just for yourself, which is reason enough, but for those you know too.

Think of your granddaughter. Think of how many friends you have on here.

I hope the wee lass doesn't ever find out she was expected to be a pit-prop to shore up her grandad.

I know Answerbank loves an ongoing saga but someone should have a word in private.

You were doing so well nailedit, what happened?

Had that thought many times Nailedit, but I'm still breathing. Sometimes I wonder why, occasionally I know why.

It's the occasions that keep me going.

Find some minor reason to survive.

Like jourdain I've had a bad year. Son had cancer, one stepgrandson died. I am disabled and live alone.

You have to get on with it.

You have tried and stumbled just get up and try again.

You will succeed!

We are all rooting for you.

I've just read a review of a biography by Ian Collins of the remarkable man Robert Bythe, the author of Akenfield,  'the polyphonic account of an imagined Suffolk village from the late Victorian era to the 1960s which became world best seller, selling 400,000 copies.

He grew up in a very poor rural background; his father was a grave digger and his mother came from a London slum. He became an inspiration for many writers and lovers of nature and people everywhere.

The reviewer closes with; "Blythe writes at one point: ' I sometimes think God will ask us, "This wonderful world of mine, why didn't you enjoy it more? " . 

As this book makes clear, he never took that gift for granted. "
