I guess these two poems belong on my poetry page, but I felt they deserved space on my daily blog today. As the sadness continues to course through my veins of the last 36 hours of shattered friendship, and the gift of clarity I have been given because of it takes over, it seems fewer words are best for today.

  1. I loved the telly tubbies!! I cried when my telly tubby went into the water when i was 4 and my dad had to jump in the lake and get it!! Now i am not interested in telly tubbys and don’t ever think about it! Did you or your boys like the Telly Tubbys, Kate? I have forgotten the Telly Tubbys names now!

  2. Hi Kate, I am feeling sad for you about your loss, but happy for your found. I am in my early 60’s and have been confronted with many times of loss but also many times of found. I have come to the conclusion that I live every day as if it was my last day (cliche I know, but true). I have many health problems and just dont know about my longevity. But I want to enjoy every minute, every second of my life. Sometimes you just have to leave behind those people who do not give you strength, love, support and the knowledge that whatever you do, how you look, they will be walking beside you. That is what I would like to do for you. Walk beside you. Hope and Love Robynx

    • Hello my dear friend Robyn, … no need to feel sad. I absolutely can feel you walking beside me, and thank you for your love and support. Living in the NOW is definitely the key to living well, along with forgiveness, love, loyalty, friendship, nits, new beginnings, old friends, new friends, loved ones, new, old or no health problems… life, love and loss, the roller-coaster ahead of everyone of us. xx

  3. Hi Kate
    I must be doing something wrong as I can’t seem to find the comments I am posting to you. Lost is a state of mind, a feeling within your heart and an act of disappearing and we all suffer from this at some stage. Most of us recover but dementia is awful, trying to get a way back to be found.
    Love you
    Robyn Verrall

    • Hello dear friend, I’ve just had a look, and found one of your comments on the Conversations page. Not sure if you’ve left any others on my blog, or if they are on Facebook? And thanks for your words about loss, and recovery, or lack of it in my case some of the time. It is certainly tedious to live with. I’ve got the 366 day challenge thing going on the Conversations Page now, so join in when you can. Love you too xx
