~ Welcome to Families and Love ~

Welcome people, I hope your experience will be a pleasant and helpful one while vising my page. My intention is only to pass on what I have learned through the years, I hope that in some way you will be helped in your own lives. The things I write about are the things I am passionate about in my life, being the best I can be is important. I feel compelled to pass on what I have learned. Make use of what helps and leave the rest behind.

Please note that the photos I use are from my own collection, most small inserts in the body of the composition are not.

♥ Merry Christmas and Happy New Year ♥


Happy, happy Christmas, that can win us back to the delusions of our childish days; that can recall to the old man the pleasures of his youth; that can transport the sailor and the traveller, thousands of miles away, back to his own fire-side and his quiet home! 
Charles Dickens, The Pickwick Papers, 1836



♥ Today will be my last blog until sometime after the new year.
♥  I wish each and all of you a very merry Christmas and a very happy new year!




Today will be my last blog until sometime after the new year.Once the travelling has ended and all the family has had time to share some special times together. My hope is that all of you who come to read my blog, regularly and not so regularly, have a wonderful time with family and friends and that you will all be surrounded with much love. I understand that the holidays can be a sad time for many people as it once was for me, for those of you who fit into this category, I hope the time will quickly pass with not too much trauma to you and yours. Remember, happiness, love and laughter may be just around the corner so please don't give up on your hopes and dreams.


I wish each and all of you a very merry Christmas and a very happy new year!

♥ Misunderstanding ♥


Constant kindness can accomplish much. As the sun makes ice melt, kindness causes misunderstanding, mistrust, and hostility to evaporate.
Albert Schweitzer 
 


♥ I had a misunderstanding
♥ Are you wrong about something today?




I had a misunderstanding with Brian the other day, it was really bad and I really ended up with a broken heart. This is the first time in a very long time that this has happened. It only lasted for a little while, and then he admitted he said what he did just to hurt me.  He told me I was his baby and that he was very wrong. He asked for my forgiveness. I forgave him and also admitted I could have handled the situation better than I did. We are stronger than we were two days ago.



Are you wrong about something today? Do you need to apologize for something you did or said to someone you love. If so, be big enough to admit to it. Do you need to forgive someone today? Then be big enough to forgive. Help your relationship to grow, it's worth it!
