Les Miserables, for my brother
He loved Les Mis, and this song keeps playing in my head.
...I dreamed a dream in times gone by
When hope was high
And life worth living
I dreamed that love would never die
I dreamed that God would be forgiving
Then I was young and unafraid
And dreams were made and used and wasted
There was no ransom to be paid
No song unsung
No wine untasted
But the tigers come at night
With their voices soft as thunder
As they tear your hope apart
And they turn your dream to shame
...But there are dreams that cannot be
And there are storms we cannot weather
I had a dream my life would be
So much different from this hell I'm living
So different now from what it seemed
Now life has killed
The dream I dreamed.

And they turn your dream to shame
...But there are dreams that cannot be
And there are storms we cannot weather
I had a dream my life would be
So much different from this hell I'm living
So different now from what it seemed
Now life has killed
The dream I dreamed.

Uuggghhh, I just got the above comment on my blog, the same word for word. Spam spam spam spam.
Sueeeus, please remember there are many more people in the world who are sending you good wishes and heartfelt prayers during your time of grief. Hopefully, they will help overcome the crassness and cruelty of the first comment.
I lost my Mum 8 weeks agao - yes, I am still counting and everyday it hurts. I don't know what I expected it to feel like or how long it would last but every day suprises me.However, what gets me through the day is the love of my friends and family and the need to live every day to the fullest because life is too short. I know my Mum would have wanted this more than anything. I don't presume to know how you feel but I am sending you hugs and kind thoughts from Melbourne, Australia. Blessings to you, Yasmin
Dear Sueeeus - I'm still thinking of you and hoping that you are feeling a little better each day.
Dear Sueeeus - thank you for your comment about my garden and the reference to my tea preferences. If I made you smile today, then my day has been worthwhile. I hope that each day you will find something to smile about until you are your old happy self again.
