TODAY'S TREASURE



Getting home moments before the rain & capturing a beautiful rainbow just on dusk.

TODAY'S TREASURE


Waking to the sound of a bird singing on my balcony - there were countless perches to choose from but he chose mine.

"The song was wordless, the singing will never be done"

TODAY'S TREASURE

TODAY'S TREASURE


Walking to the market today in "sunshine" & seeing the first buds of spring breaking out everywhere - like these magnificent Magnolia's.

LIES


I became pretty upset today, I was lied to by someone I care about. I keep getting reminded by my husband (not the perpetrator) that it was only a lie of omission but it still really upset me. Ever since I was young I have hated lies no matter how small or seemingly "harmless" they might be. Here I am the one with mental health problems yet the people around me choose to live a lie of their own making - Isn't this to some extent "delusional" behaviour? I hope & pray she wakes up out of this dreamworld she is living in ..... sooner rather than later.

LIFE AND GROWTH


I have started to look for work again. I feel like a bit of a fraud because I have been looking at part time nursing jobs. The thing is I sincerely gave working in retail some thought but I just can't see myself doing it. The other thing I need to consider is money - I can earn twice as much in nursing. So I'm looking for part time work in a nursing home - a job which should be less stressful & should be less isolating. One of the main things I need to concentrate on is getting out & meeting people (easier said than done). I need to focus on life & growth not death & decay......I can't wait for Spring.
