So some viral thingamy has finally gotten the best of me today. Its been trying to tell me to stop and rest for a few days on reflection. But of course, I didn't take the time to listen to my body. Kept pushing through. Keep going, stuff to do etc.
So it took it to the next level, gave me a hacking cough and took my voice!!
"Stop talking and listen!"
It worked, I stopped.
Our bodies can be such a good reflection of what our minds need.
Although it's a cold but sunny day and my brain tells me I should be outside, my heart wants to watch Christmas films and make Christmas stuff in my craft room!
A sort of "chicken noodle soup" (the sort of food that is made to cure all ills!), thing that will definitely give me a boost.
So I m going with doing what my heart wants, wallowing in my form of "chicken noodle soup" for a day.
It's good to stop, listen to your body and go with what your heart tells you sometimes.
What's your "chicken noodle soup" when you need to stop and rest awhile?

I read somewhere the other day, that we miss our parents and think about them more, as we get older.
I can certainly relate to that. Today has been primarily about my husband and his relationships with his children and his grandchildren. Which has been very positive and fulfilling.
But one of the important moments for him was sharing his father's overseas driving licence for 1943 with his children and grandchildren.
The photo also reminded me of my dad (gone 29 yrs ago now), and the values he put on family were also talked about.
It seems for many of us this continuity still has an impact on our adult lives and those of our children and grandchildren.
It's more important than we realise at the time, what we do, what we say, and how we say it.
Take time to think about what you say and do.
It will have an effect on people for generations to come.

Hello all.
Been some time since I posted anything. Life seems to move so quickly at the moment! Think it's an age thing.
Recently I ve experienced a number of situations where friends or relatives have fallen ill or even, sadly passed away.
Suddenly realised we are in our 60's and this may become a more regular part of our lives.
Certainly want to be sympathetic to all these people close to us, but slso felt the need to evaluate our remaining years.
Maybe time to think more along the lines of "what I want to do" NOT "what I ought to do".
Very hard when as active family members you have put many others before you.
Now is the time to put you first. While you can.
No one will see you as being selfish. They will see you as being decisive. And they will follow you.
As elder members of our communities we can teach and support those coming after us.
