To those who believe
To those who don’t
and to those who walk their own path in faith.
I wish you all a very happy Easter.
May it bring a bit of peace,a touch of joy and perhaps even a moment to pause and enjoy the little things,be it good company,a PROPER cup of tea or a well earned chocolate egg.
Take care of yourselves and each other.

We had a long discussion about faith just two weeks ago…I don’t think I need worry about him he seems to have everyone covered.Happy Easter .

Thank you.
I'd love one of my DGC when they reach that age did that, you can be so proud.
Its so inclusive and a great level of awareness.

Did your GS post this on to your WhatsApp Family Group.? I. have 2 GC, roughly his age. All they said was ‘Happy Easter’, 😂 - nothing as profound as that …. but, I love them .

No -*crazy H* he posted it on Facebook.
He sent a lovely wee post when his step gran died recently about always “being where your feet are”
Meaning don’t have your face in your phone or your mind on other things …it was very sweet and emotional .If I can find it I,ll post it

My grandson, also 22, took me on Good Friday on a lovely train ride to Montrose. He is so grown-up now but still affectionate.

From the same young man
You should care more about the time you spend than the dime you spend.
Whatever you choose to do ,do it fully.
If you,re at work,work
If you,re training,train
If you,re with family BE with family
Be where your feet are.
Because when you,re only half present you lose twice
Once in the moment and once n the result
But when you give something your full attention you give it the chance to give something back.
Be present or the moment will pass and you won’t ever realise what it had to offer .
