Friends, once again a long period has passed since last writing on these pages. I have become lost in the demands of daily living and with it have lost a small part of myself. I have been and am caught up in the stress of life and have forgotten how to relax and how to appreciate, enjoy and embrace life’s blessings. Even now, as I write this, I am tense and stressed; worries about the future niggle. I have become so accustomed to being busy and around others, with barely a moment to think, that I am fearing having 8 weeks paid leave in the summer. I am afraid of myself.
Today is the summer solstice, the longest day of the year, yet outside it’s grey and gloomy with no hint of the joy of sunshine. My mood is undecided; should she look upon and imitate what is outside and visible from mother nature or should she try to find that hint of light within? It has been a difficult couple of weeks – my grandfather passed away, joining his beloved and much missed wife; and work on the ward has been busy and emotionally demanding.
Anyway, be that as it may, my gluten free lifestyle remains as does my love of food and all that nourishes and sustains life. I shall return once again, to this blog as well as to myself, and share with you what joys and ponderings that sustain my life and that of others soon. The next 5 weeks are going to be arduous but at the end (last week of July/first week of August) I will return with the hope of sharing what is great in life with you, fellow readers. In the meantime, whilst I may not publish anything upon these pages, I shall visit to read anything you wish to share.
