Saddened by a few pieces of personal news this week…
Words flow from strange places…
Life, it has no permanence
Life gives no guarantees
So we should live it fully
And do the things that pleaseLife, a gift bestowed on us
Like a seed, once planted
Water it, nurture it, help it grow
Don;t take life for grantedRitu 2016

It is. I suffered two last year but, as they say, life must go on. It’s still a difficult time though.

Always… having such a big family, it’s something that I’m used to… there are always new additions. Babies and by marriage, but equally we have to say goodbye to people too. I guess it’s just harder when they are young. …

20…
Ordinarily, then, like Superman, I would say “Up, up and away”, and take off to the skies. At least, when I was a real kid, living in the UK, that is what he would say in the comic books.
Since then, I decided that Superman is a pasty faced superhero, and I decided that the villains are much more interesting.
So, it will be hellfire for me
