Lovely to read these sayings.

Struggling like so many others here to keep on top of family problems.

Grateful I have got GN to vent my feelings.

Squiffy , it's a lovely quote . Any words which may help even one person is a blessing x

But not - get yourself together ?

Sorry Annie didn't mean to hijack your thread with another quote blush

Annie Here's a quote that I do always adhere to:

"For in the dew of little things the heart finds its morning and is refreshed"

Sometimes it's the wonder, joy and awe of little things that keep us going and lift us, isn't it?

Squiffy, all anyone can do is try x

Wise words Annie. I'm not sure that I'm very good at any of them, especially the 'courage' one. Must try harder.

There are some here who are suffering pain both physical and emotional, for them -

God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change.

Courage to change the things I can.

And wisdom to know the difference.
