Let Love Lead You Always...

If you are lucky enough to still have both your parents with you. Then I ask you to please today, and make sure it is today, go and hug them, and tell them you love them. If you can't visit them, then pick up your phone and call them. If you're the type of person who gets embarrassed by doing this, please put your embarrassment away and just make the call, that visit.

My father died on 1st December 2007, it's been just 7 days since he has passed, and I am devastated. I didn't tell my dad those three important words, and I know now that I should have.
We had a rocky relationship for 20 years, and we just didn't see eye to eye. How stupid I was to let things of the past over rule my mind, and not love.

I should have acted with love and I should have always let love be my guide. But I didn't.
It's not until your parents have passed that you realise just how much they mean to you, and it's then you realise your squabbles meant nothing.

If you're currently having any differences with your parents, please put them aside. I don't want anyone to go through what me and my sisters are going through right now. It is heart breaking and so devastating. No one is perfect, your parents are people making their way on earth, just like you. They make mistakes too, and just because they're your parents, it doesn't mean they won't.

To end this, I want to say. I'm so sorry dad, and I love you with all my heart. I just wish things had been different. They say you shouldn't have regrets, but I will always regret not making up with you. Your Marge.

Life in 2007

It's been a while since I last posted here. I'm not sure if anyone even comes here to read? But anyway, it doesn't matter. I just put down my thoughts here and if someone reads it and finds it slightly interesting then, yay! LOL.

Anyway, here I am once again writing down my thoughts. I'm wiser than I used to be and older too! Life keeps dishing out those tests we have to do, even though they're painful at times. This year I had to go through something that was emotionally painful and very hard to do.

We had got ourselves a puppy back in March, but just a few weeks ago, we found her a new home. Giving her up was one of the hardest things I have ever had to do, but I did it for her, also for my hubby and my family. He wasn't a dog person, I had talked him into getting her, and as the weeks went by the stress doubled and things just weren't working out. We tried really hard, but in the end it wasn't fair on Amber our pup, she deserved much better than to be with us.

We found a really good home for her, she went to live with a Church Minister not far from us. We can't see her of course, and we miss her loads. She is a beautiful dog and sometimes it's hard when we think back about her little ways, how she played and her little mannerisms. Sometimes I wish we still had her, but I know deep down we did the best thing for her and us. I'll never forget her. When we were looking for a good home for her, I prayed so hard, I prayed with every bit of essence of my spirit and that evening, Malcome the Church Minister phoned about her. We met him and his wife, and they are adorable people, we just knew our prayers had been answered. Amber went to live with them on 14th May.

I learnt a huge lesson out of this, I think we all did. It was such a painful lesson it broke my heart, and Joe's our son. But we're OK now.

Each lesson we go through makes us wiser and stronger people, sometimes lessons are hard to understand? Sometimes it feels like we're the only ones going through a situation, but in reality there's someone going through the same thing as you. We're not alone and it's not our fault when things go wrong. Things go wrong for a reason, and we have to find the missing puzzle that fits to make things better, or to resolve a situation.

Basically, what I'm trying to say is; If you're in a situation now, where you feel lonely and you feel you're the only one going through your situation, I want you to know you're not. If you need to, reach out and talk to someone and also you can pray. I am a strong believer in prayer. Also focus on what you do want and it can happen. Positive thoughts create positive situations, even though you may find yourself going through a bit of a painful struggle to get there. There really is a silver lining and a light at the end of a tunnel. All you have to do is reach out and touch it.

Take Care,

Margo. xXx
