How can we learn truth, When all we’ve known is lies? Turn our lives round for good, When evil has been done to us?

Well, in a few hours it is going to be the end of the year and, as usual, so many things have happened over the time.

I have seen SO MANY adverts for bee venom as a beauty treatment, as a healing cream, as in getting rid of marks and helping your body tone up etc.

Well, as you all know, we have been through some really tough Christmases in the first half of this decade. 

Truthfully I haven’t been writing here for some time because I not only did I have a stomach flu but was suffering from daily headaches and migraines and couldn’t cope with light.

Sometimes I must admit inspiration comes from an unusual source - one that you never imagined in your wildest dreams to happen. 

I think I have mentioned this before, but I have a condition that is called Treacher Collins and needed my face to be reconstructed 16 years ago. 

This is actually something I have been considering a couple of weeks at least, I must admit. 

Hey everyone, I know I haven’t written at all last week, but there are times that life and health get in the way - whether physical, mental or emotional. 

Have you ever known that the world has moved from one month to the next but you don’t register it properly?

Yes, as you can guess, that’s something I am going to be writing about today.  I was going to put it in Thoughts of the Week because yes, they were, BUT I am sure we have all felt overwhelmed at some point in our lives.

As you know if you’ve read much of my work that I love watching cooking programmes and on a Saturday morning it’s one of my greatest joys to watch James Martin.

I don’t really know what to say!  Actually I feel a bit speechless (writerless) I guess you’d say.  After updating the website my readership has increased dramatically!

When people talk about forgiving and forgetting, they are assuming that everyone will forgive and forget.  But what they don’t realise is that sometimes doing the two is NOT a good or sensible thing to do.

Can you believe this?  16 years ago today, Kevin and I said “I do” to each other.  It was the best day of my life up until that point.

Have you ever watched people reacting in an overly “sweet” way to people and wondered if it was real or an act?

Do you know the saying that you feel like you’ve just had a week and a half of it?

Gillian ran through the list of items she needed in her mind as she tried to hurry through the shopping centre.  She needed to check she had everything. 

What?  You don’t know what I am talking about?  Well, you know I’ve been talking about when you have low self esteem? 

No, I’m not going to be talking about the small blocks or bricks that young children put together or pile on top of each other.
