Sadness on the inside
Smothering your soul
Like particles of red dirty dust
Layers of wretchedness
Melancholy
Despondency
Desolation
Dejection
Mistrust
Unable to show love
Or
Showing too much love
Loss
Grief
Desperate for any form
Of unconditional love
Unexpected feelings of yearning
Wishing it was not so
Sounds like my day. So lonely. So illogical. So misunderstood. So wrong. Incomprehensible. And yes, showing too much love. Despair. Tears.
Then, courage and hope rise again.
I love your last line… courage, hope and rise again. That is, indeed, what we all must do. xx
So true. Courage and hope are among the greatest gifts we can have and give to another human being.
Courage is not always easy, but with the support of others, almost always possible… thank you. x

Thanks sis! xx
That was “to” manage, not so!!!!!!
Hi Kate, I wish I had the way with words like you. Your writings are so thought provoking and give us so much to “take away” for the day. “On being an orphan”, I felt was also so true of the feelings very often felt by Carers
We have feelings of being, not alone but of being lonely. Being a Carer I believe is a privilege but as those with Dementia, we have a kaleidoscope of feelings so try and manage. xox
Thanks Joy… you are showing your lovely way with words here, in your comments, so thanks for joining the conversation. Have a great weekend xox
