In Readiness ...

For the farewells of another ... for now ... 

... To ignore the silence ... aimed at her late son ... 

The day is for who we know actually knew ... And not for those who did not understand ... 

The stigma of so much and the ill speak still to this day ... Our daughter realising we are all in destiny of what we do too ... And that her Nana was happy through the ups and downs that came her way ... and this is what matters ... 

It is not what you have materially ... We cherish the spiritual love, the friendship of loyal people, do within our powers of help where it is needed and accept help in times of need too ... and be happy with what you have ... And not what you have not ... 

You can take all this warmth of love and dedication surrounding you from those who love you along your life with you when you pass ... despite the tribulations of life ... it is the unconditional love within us ... 

That is how I have been touched by death ... from how we deal with adversity ... we know what we know ... 

... and love deep was there all in its depth ... in life through death ...

Types of worship buildings

the love of our church in this county is different to the service soon ...

No ornate architecture or organ ...

No pianist, no songsters and no band ... It has dwindled ...  further since 2001 ...

And no harmonies by the now gone in laws

My father in law himself a proficient musician and pianist ... And they could all carry a tune ...

Instead it will reflect the new ... with the faith of my mum in law ... Our daughter,  the couple who lead the Salvation Army and those involved in putting it all together will praise and celebrate her life in an unique reflection ... with their traditions that flow with the times and further than some with the global community intertwined in the locality each are situated ... 

A continuity throughout the world ...

The sacred day of rest ...

In these modern times are really noticeable ... 

The life style changed by those past as in Jimmy Hill and many others who get things changed throughout history ... i.e. footballers earnings used to be pittance ... Now it is the other extreme ... For those changes he made ... 

The fact women can juggle life with home and or children with a career which now means the weekends consist (for those who are not able to afford cleaners and nannies etc) of the home chores on this day too  ... Or for single people ... Etc ... 

Those who have more than one job to pay the mortgage ... for again eager beavers who changed with the fact women were now working too .. making it difficult for those in the working class to get a step up  ... Not everyone wants to be in managerial positions ... All aspects of life from those that take our refuse to those who run things should have been in mind ... The class system still exists ... 

In travel albeit we do not travel in trains in the open air in this country now, since the middle of last century ... but woebetide if you dare to sit in first class if you are of a younger age in casual dress when you have booked your ticket in advance online and it turns out less expensive to travel than even in second class ... 

The tales of student travel when challenged by others ... "This is for first class only" ...

Creepy…

Creepy… The fact of being able to dictate these blokes as always given a lot of amusement ... No blokes  blogger  Log ... 

yes follow my thoughts keep up with me ...  listen to my words ... that's better …

Thank you

It can do a new paragraph but not delete backspace or return ... but it can do. Full stops.

One needs crystal clear diction.

One needs patience.

One needs time to study how to delete etcetera.

Or maybe that's not in its ability to do yet.

The fact that I can talk away ... instead of type makes me think I'm having a conversation

Being away from life around

Still intrigues me for some things have not changed. I am sitting on a bench in a supermarket at the end of a working day for some ... 
  • A Mum and Child ... Fast food being eaten as walking along 
  • Several business men in suits walking along with milk and fruit, or fruit and fruit or socks 
  • Others carrying along flowers for thenselves or others 
  • Another Mum and child eating the fast food from the cafe as walking along 
  • All the other usual styles of shopping coming and going 
  • All quiet as people get home for tea, dinner or supper depending on culture or life style 


And the store I am in ... running like regular clockwork at all the hours that I have witnessed on the different times I have kept in my life changes since my husband has been deceased ...
