Living alone is not all bad.

This is for friends and acquaintances that find themselves living alone due to circumstances of which we have no control.

The day you realise no one is ahead of you and no one is behind you,you know its your time to shine,to run your own race ! Every hurdle we crossed and every hill that we walked,and every mountain we climbed, and every river we crossed,WE did it our way.

Sometimes those rivers and mountains seemed to hard to master,but with sheer determination we conquered all that was in our way.

And we did it our way.

With no intrusion from a soul,we might appear to be the lonely long distance runner,but we did it,and we did it alone.

And we did it our way.

My dear Roddy I went all tingly and goosey when I read that I can certainly relate to that you are doing so well your so strong I'm sure I wouldn't have coped as well as you going from one adversity after another I hope my prayers and support have helped you on your long journey this past year you have become a truly valued friend and that I'm truly grateful for I hope we will always be friend and continue to share our life's ups and downs, life never stays the same and I'm certain as were such good people this bad few years we've been and got through after some times feeling what's the point we will find true releif contentment I won't say happiness as I don't think anyone is ever happy life always has problems I'm sure we can all find some happy times in a day, today actually I had laugh with mam even tho I'm.still not content and stressed about stuff but I thought yes I can still laugh I can still enjoy some things in life a silly thing like my new emulshion colour and a nice chat n laugh with mam, take care my dear friend one day we have more ups than down days I'm sure sending love and hugs as always to you and your doggies from me and pixiebob and certainly living alone makes us stronger I remember mam's nebour saying to her your Mandy's strong she said what makes you say that he said she's lived and coped living alone for 21 years I never thought of it like that, trouble is when your used to it other people become irritating it was so hard living with mam we all have our own ways and to live in another's house with there ways and rules not for me 🤗😺💛🌟xxx

A very thoughtful post, and those of us who are in similar circumstances understand every single word, i should be asleep, but often a certain post will catch my eye, and I've occasionally replied to your posts, as you are such a kind and sensitive person, imagine the world was made with people like you, we'd never have any problems,it comes from the heart, and soul,best wishes to you and your 4 legged doggy 🐕friends 😊
