Spidey’s Serene Sunday – Part 138

“It’s OK to be a glowstick. Sometimes we need to break before we shine.” – Anon

What an absolutely fantastic thought Spidey has brought to the table this week!

I rather like the idea of being a glowstick.

The thought that something broken can give the greatest results.

There are often situations in life where you are pushed to your limits. You work yourself to the bone. You wear yourself so thin that that final straw easily breaks the proverbial camel’s back.

But this saying makes me think that being broken is not a bad thing. Being broken means that you get a chance to peer inside yourself, and find that inner strength and glow that you would have never realised was there, had you just plodded along.

So if you are feeling broken, if things haven’t gone the way you wanted, summon the strength to mend yourself, and allow that strength to carry you forward to bigger and better things!

Thank you, Spidey!

 

Have a glow-tastic Sunday Peeps!

For Sue’s #writephoto prompt.

broken

Crumbling, but beautiful
A shell of its former glory
Yet still a symbol
Of my love for you
Though the years have been unkind,
Though our light has dimmed
It’s still there, glowing gently
Celebrating a love that’s true

Bed-lam!

Well, as some of you know, we ordered a new bed, old one was on its last legs.
Well we were told the new one would be 2-3 weeks… Well, now, as the base has finally given way, they say 2-3 weeks more, on top of that!!!
Hubby Dearest was not impressed! Especially as  he wanted to wait before ordering from this company.  Don’t get me wrong, they are no small concern, Carpetright/Sleepright. Anyway, after several phonecalls over the last couple of days, he’s convinced them to sort out a temporary base, at least, until our bed arrives.
Great!
It just meant totally dismantling the old one first, as they are delivering tomorrow!
So my helper arrived…

See mummy, I'm sooo helpful!

And then found the nuts n bolts far too interesting!

Ooooh Toys!!

So after dispatching him to the rest of the helpful bunch, I finished, and back aching, settle on my bed for tonight…

Just a mattress, but hey, at least it lays flat, unlike the old base!

Here’s hoping all is OK and we get a decent bed, and sleep from tomorrow!!

My interactive peeps!
