A family doesn’t need to be perfect; it just needs to be united – Unknown
In Unison there is Strength – Aesop
Everyone should strive to become a citizen of the world. Boundaries were created by Man, not the Creator. There’s no such thing as Them vs. Us. There is only We. – Suzy Kazem

Well done Spidey, you’ve unearthed some crackers there, which relate perfectly to my feelings about the whole EU referendum fiasco.

I was never sure who to vote for, as there was so much clashing information being bandied about by the two campaigning sides. But my choice was to Remain. My reasoning was for the future of my children, the opportunities that would arise from an ‘open world’, and a fear of the unknown.

Others I know who voted to Leave, had their own valid reasons. Many, who were older were saying they were around before the EEC, and they took part in those first votes. They knew what the country was capable of, without this added ‘support’ network, and generally, there was an air of nostalgia, with them harking back to the good old days. Some were voting so the promises of added funding to various national services would happen.

It’s too early to make sweeping statements about what will happen, and whether it was a mistake or not.

What is right or wrong, no one really knows, but whatever is going to happen, surely it is better to stay united and draw strength from each other, support one another.

We are like a large family, and as long as we are there for each other, we WILL cope with the ups and downs that are sure to face our nation.

Here’s hoping this is a chance for the politicians, who are the puppeteers in this whole circus, to really show us what is GREAT about GREAT Britain, and let’s hope that we can stay a UNITED Kingdom.

Peace out Peeps Have a united Sunday, and may you be blessed with sunshine, I fear we have rain!!!

Spidey’s Serene Sunday – Part 70 – Father’s Day Special

‘I imagine God to be like my father. My father was always the voice of certainty in my life. Certainty in the wisdom, certainty in the path, certainty always in God. For me God is certainty in everything. Certainty that everything is good and everything is God.’ – Yehuda Berg

Spidey and I settled on this quote as a totally appropriate one for today, a special Father’s Day quote.

It encapsulates my feelings for my Pops totally. He is everything good that I see. A purity, soulfulness, spirituality, stability, all that makes life good.

A perfect father
Grounding me like an anchor
Whilst letting me fly

“Always laugh when you can, it’s cheap medicine.” – Lord Byron

Thanks, Spidey, for finding this one today!

It reflects how I feel totally!

No matter what the illness or problem, a smile or a little laugh (preferably a great big one, though!) does wonders for the heart and soul.

I laughed and smiled lots yesterday, and it got me through the day. I got home, and my second wind was truly gone too, so it was early night, and sleep catch up time, but those laughs and smiles, well, they really got me through!

So remember, try and smile, or laugh, honestly, it does make most things better 🙂

Have a smiley Sunday Peeps!!!

Remembering a legend today.

RIP Muhammad Ali

Float like a butterfly, sting like a bee.
He who is not courageous enough to take risks will accomplish nothing in life.
The man who views the world at 50 the same as he did at 20 has wasted 30 years of his life.
Service to others is the rent you pay for your room here on earth.
I am the greatest, I said that even before I knew I was.
I know where I’m going and I know the truth, and I don’t have to be what you want me to be. I’m free to be what I want.
The man who has no imagination has no wings.
It isn’t the mountains ahead to climb that wear you out; it’s the pebble in your shoe.
Silence is golden when you can’t think of a good answer.
It’s just a job. Grass grows, birds fly, waves pound the sand. I beat people up.

So many words of wisdom from a true legend, a man who changed the world of sport, and left an indelible mark on the world.

Watching all these interviews that are airing now, you feel the personality emanating from him.  He was amazing.

RIP to a true legend. your legacy lives on…

Family – Where life begins, and love never ends. – Anon

This feels like the most appropriate quote today Spidey!

I have scheduled a post for a little later, and all will be revealed!

But you all know that family means everything to me. They are the ones who have moulded me into who I am today, the ones to support me through downs, and cheer me on during ups.

My inspiration and encouragement for everything I have done.

Enjoy your Sunday Peeps! Appreciate the family around you!
