As we enter the family season it can be extremely hard to cope with the grief. For me, the solution is in the word…
 Pay thanks for the family around you, that love you and help you through this time. Pay thanks for having loved which is a wonderful experience. Pay thanks for the memories that you treasure in your mind.
Give love – remember the more you give away the more you will receive. Give time to allow the family to remember the people who are no longer here. Give yourself credit for coping with grief, and know that every day …read more

A thought for the weekend
It’s true that sometimes life is full                                                                                                                            Of trying circumstances,                                                                                                                                        And sometimes we must struggle                                                                                                                           For just minimal advances.
Despite events that slow us down                                                                                                                             And magnify our worries,                                                                                                                                       We must learn that progress is                                                                                                                                A word that seldom hurries.
To try to grasp the total picture                                                                                                                                Is a strong temptation                                                                                                                                        Often we attempt too much                                                                                                                                  And add to our frustration.
Laying out before us                                                                                                                                              All the things that must be done                                                                                                                           May beharder than to focus                                                                                                                                    On a single one.
Don’t approach so many tasks                                                                                                                              That all your hopes are gone.                                                                                                                                   A single step will lead you to                                                                                                                                  Another …read more
