Grief feels like a fresh wound…Everytime someone mentions the loss,Or something reminds me of you,It’s like I accidentally bounce or rough it up;And the pain is renewed.Random things make me think of you:Pretty clouds mixed with the colour of the sunrise;A rainbow;The colour purple;A hot doubles with slight pepper… You would say no pepper on …

Something about calm, peaceful Sundays just puts you at ease and sets the tone for a week of good intentions and blessings unfolding gently and oh so beautifully.Embrace the silence.

Light over darkness; good over evil
When it’s all said and done, people will only remember you as the person they grew to love or hate and the impact you made: kind, calm, cheerful, fearless, inspiring, disingenuous, mean-spirited, manipulative, advantageous, ugly. Is your current life reflective of how you wish to be remembered?
