I'll start at the beginning LOL, best place I guess just my thoughts as they ramble on and I'm not even sure where they're going or what I'm trying to say Guess at the end of this you'll know as much as me So...the saga begins... Today is my birthday and I always believe that birthdays are special we each are unique and therefore our birthdays are a reminder of the day we were born Several cards arrived by email many with loving wishes cards from afar like my sister in the states or from my nephew up the road which said "WWW.happy birth.day. love.com" the smile on my face was wide enough to let a bus through he's only 9...bless him Having arrived home the morning's post awaited me beautiful flowers also but no card from my mother a short time ago she rang me first time in 4 months and all she wanted to know was "is there anything about me that she should be proud of!" my heart sank I quietly said "I'm earning good money?" but she replied "do you look good, would I be proud to be seen with you?" alas I have no real answer and she put the phone down when I responded with "I don't know, most people think I look great but then they're not you" so I think it's more important what's contained within the package not how it is wrapped and heck, I'm 43 today but if my mother were reading this I would say... my heart is shaped like a flower needs love to make me grow the wrapping paper is made up of my thoughts the bows are my compassion and the card written with love is the whole of me.. Thank you my friends for loving me! Suthern especially HUSG ------------------ You give but little when you give of your possessions. It is when you give of yourself that you truly give. |

Queen You are now, and you always will be a beautiful Queen, who needs never ask for approval, because it will always be freely given. If it pleases your Ladyship, may I say...Happy Birthday.... it has been a wonderful year+ that I've know you and your uplifting message of love and friendship. smooch ps - your words left a real hollow feeling inside me, and a real dislike for your Mum - forgive me?

LJA: If she can forgive me for what I said about that creature who bore her, she can certainly forgive you! LOL. RG: Dear friend, we cannot take the pain away that thoughtless words inflicted. But we know a lady who's an absolute treasure.... and as much as I hate that you were hurt, the one I feel sorry for is your mother. She doesn't have a clue... and it's her loss. HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!! and HUSG across the pond! |

I seem to be constantly saying thank you today, but each thank you is meant with so much care... What startles me more than anything, is that people see me as the person I am and yet she knows so little about who I am or maybe it's that I'm not terribly important...and I hated saying that...but years of the same make it roll of me like water off a ducks back....occasionally, when I say something about her, but always to someone close until now, when I made this public...someone will say, "but she's your mother"...but...heaven forgive me please?...giving birth does not make you a mother, love does, caring does, thoughtfullness and time does...every time I see someone in need of love or assurance I wish I could hug them, make them feel that security of being loved...it costs so very little! LJA as Suthern said...course I forgive you, you're thinking nothing I don't think myself, sad to say... HUSG both ps: One day I will have that home for children...that's where my money will go..:-)))) but it's our secret.. ------------------ You give but little when you give of your possessions.
