A passing thought - no reply required

My iceburg is melting or is that my tears

I feel so numb but is that due to the cold.

Isolated and remote from human contact

is that due to my choice or has it been imposed !

Good intentions are seemingly returned

strength of character slowly slipping is that due to me or my health

Where am I in this world or am I in it at all ?

I'm lost or am I just alone

crying makes me realise I am in pain and Thankfully still alive

or at least I feel something if not totally thankful

Hi LTD
I know you said no replys but you know me I can't keep my moyh shut LOL but anyway had to let you know I like it and I am verythank full Pauline

[Janice]

thanks for that LTD- it reminded me of this poem I wrote many years ago for my father who had PD

I know sometimes life
seems so damn unfair
It really makes you wonder
if there is a God to care

The fear of not knowing
what happens when you die
Do we go to heaven
or is it all a lie

If our soul is eternal
and in this we believe
then what is our purpose
and why do we grieve

I know I should be thankfull
for each and every day
but sometimes I wonder
does it have to be this way

Janice, welcome to the family


Pauline is my sister through understanding and you will find that my / our family grows by the day !


(we know, we feel, we have experience, we now have knowledge & we understand therefore we are family )

[ltd-addition]

My love and admiration to Margie My big (Older) sister who is one of God's Angel's on this earth and our Canadian sister
Pauline with whom God has also chosen to care and look after me on this earth to assist our Margie.
I'm not a bit of bother but God gave me the best sisters on earth just to keep me smiling, happy and my heart full of love.
Thankyou for caring x

Hi Ltd-addition,

You didn't request a reply but I have to tell you I'm so glad you posted this. I so often feel what is described in this poem. But I must honestly say from the bottom of my heart that having friends, really caring and true friends here on this Forum makes life worth while.

God Bless and take care of all of us. We don't understand, we are afraid, we wonder, we think but we must have hope and even that is taken away from us many times but to have such dear friends and their love must mean something--must count for something--it just can't all be for naught.

We each came into this world the same way. I think when we started being born we must have been frightened when our mother's contractions started (or if we were born through Cesarean-when the doctor took us from the safety of our mother's womb) and we started being born into this earthly life. Up until then we were safe, warm, fed, felt secure, peaceful and happy. Then all of a sudden things started to change rapidly and we didn't know what was happening but we had no choice--we were being born--so we hung on for the 'ride' and possibly wondered in both fear and hope that something good or better was going to happen after all this confusion. Then we finally arrived from our little womb world into this earth world and hopefully were greeted by our mother and father welcoming us with their love.

All this must have a meaning. Maybe leaving this earth will have similarities we had at our birth and we will arrive in Heaven (or whatever you chose to call it) and be with everyone we love/have loved. We went through this at birth and came through it well--why shouldn't we have the same thing happen, only better--to get to Heaven.

We could even have a Forum of our own again then?

With much love to all of you.
Margie

Your big (Older) sister will care for you always, just as our Canadian sister Pauline,

God chose wisely when he made us sisters. Both of you give me so much in my life's journey you aren't even aware of.

Hugs, love, prayers and all that is good dear sisters,
Always and forever,
Margie

Hi Janice,

Your poem that you wrote for your father is deep, beautiful and meaningful to me (and I'm sure to others who will read it).

Sharing it with us is something special because you originally wrote it for your father who had PD and are now willing to let us read it.

I too wonder sometimes does it have to be this way? But I have no answers. It's something like when children ask that question "WHY"? over and over again and sometimes we can give them a legitimate response but other times we just have to tell them "I don't know"! And fortunately or unfortunately we don't know why there have to be bad things in life. I guess that is where acceptance, faith and hope come in to give us strength in bad/hard/difficult/impossible times.

May I welcome you to the Forum Janice. You will find wonderful people here. Before you know it, they will become friends and much like a family to you. I'm glad you are here.

Margie
