Love

34.



I saw this picture on one of my friends Facebook posts and I think it's so cute. It's a great little quote because it's so true. Can you remember the first time you fell in love? Having feelings towards someone that are completely indescribable but make perfect sense. The feeling of being safe and at ease whenever you are with them and the moments leading up to being with them again, a mass of butterflies find shelter in your belly and you're excited just to be with them again. 

It's crazy how you, in one moment, realise the amount of love you have for the person. They might not know but you look at them and it's 'wow' 

I'm not just talking about people in serious relationships, if we all think about it, we love a lot of people. The unconditional feeling of love towards family, where no matter what they do you have that need to make sure they are okay and protected. We love our closest friends, we tell our friends stuff that maybe we don't want our families to know. They are there for us to seek comfort and advise from and that's so important to know we have someone, other than family, to ring when we just need someone to talk too. 

If you ever feel as though you have no one to turn too, you do. The people you love and who love you will always be there for you, no matter what. Never feel as though your struggles are a burden on anyone else because those who love you will help you. You just have to let them in. 


    
Love isn't about the big gestures in life, you don't have to show someone you love them by having the most romantic holidays or buying them lavish gifts all the time, it's about those little moments. The times where you look into their eyes and see something is wrong, knowing that the words 'I'm okay' may be a cover up for some worries they are having, or simply a hug to let them know you are there for them when they are ready to talk. 

Love is trust, it's caring, it's about being honest, having fun and being loyal, if you have those things with someone, a partner or friend then you've got so so much. 

Love is not seeing them everyday but feeling like you've never been apart. 




Much love

50. Hello my loves. WOW we've made it to the fiftieth blog post, if you're reading this one and you've read all of the ones before, thank you for sticking with me and my public diary entries. If you are new to my posts then Hello and welcome to my life, my little world of, well, I'm not to sure...this. I'm listening and watching Sia - Elastic Heart, I absolutely love this song and I love the video! It's so incredibly powerful , I watch it without knowing what it is that is keeping me so drawn to it (maybe Shia's body...) but seriously please go and watch it, don't read the comments of the video if it's the first time you're watching it and let me know what you believe it is portraying. I won't tell you what I believe because I don't want my view to alter what you may initially feel.      I feel like it might be a good time to update you guys on my Dad. By the way, everything I write is solely my feelings and from my point of vie

In difficulty there is strength and laughter

53. Hello my loves... This may seem like a very strange time, some may think I shouldn't write at all right now but as I'm just sat here, waiting, I feel I should (plus I've been given permission from my sister Kellie and Rob) On Wednesday 4th February, which seems like a lifetime ago, I got a phone call to say things with Dad had took a turn and we all needed to get to the home as time was looking short. I can't explain the fear that was going through me. The panic was so strong I was physically shaking until i got to the home to see him.  I had no idea what to expect, what had happened or what was going to happen, I just had to go with it. I guess we all do when faced with these extremes.  I have to admit I was pretty shocked to see that once the sedation had worn off he was back to his smiley self, even dancing along to the music.  But we knew it was serious when they said he was now completely nill by mouth, no food, no liquid.  An influx of fa

Our story with MND so far..

6.  These are my feelings and my thoughts, no one else's, just mine. In June 2013 my Dad was dealt the card of Motor Neurone Disease, a horrible disease. MND attacks the central nervous system and causes muscles to weaken and waste away. People with MND have to struggle everyday with activities that wouldn't have affected them before. It can be different with each person but sadly the outcome is always the same, there are no survivors, only true fighters! There is no cure... In some cases of MND the person can also have Frontotemporal Dementia. A less common form of dementia but nevertheless devastating. My Dad also has this... I first realised that something wasn't quite right around January 2013, my dad and I were sat in a cafe and he couldn't open a folded lottery ticket my exact words to him were "can't you use for hands or something" his reply was "no, my hand has got really weak" I asked him to make a fist with his right han
