Rescue

The boys from Redruth have been working hard on their debut album Rescue, due to be released later this month. You can sample some tracks from "Rescue" at the Redruth myspace page

The standout track for me is "The Lord's Prayer".

How do I live without you?

I don't really know my love. Another year lived. Another hope to come. My sweet thing, I live for the day that you come home. One day you will know that you have been with me every day, every second ... never far from my thoughts and always carried in my heart. My child I love you. xoxo

Keeping Jesus Company

I spoke on the phone with my daughter today and she said to me "Mummy, you are always with me." I replied with "yes, darling ... in your heart." She responded with "Yes, Mummy, with Jesus. Someone has to keep him company."

Dying from laughter.

Elusive

Have you ever had an elusive friend? I have one that I seem to cross once every four years. Tonight, for whatever reason I sent a text message stating: "If you knew then what you know now ... Would you let your life escape you?"

I hit send without agenda.

I receive a response. Much to my amazement. "Good question". It in all likelyhood will be all I will hear from him for the next few years.

(no ... not true It was good to hear from you.)

All Good Things Come To An End

I was driving my daughter home and we were chatting along and singing along to the radio and generally having a good time. Nelly Furtado's "All good things come to an end" came on the radio and my daughter slumped into state of mellancholy complete with seven year old pout. After some coaxing and ten songs later, she said ... "It is just like that song Mum, all good things come to an end."

I found myself saying that yes that is true, because the cycle of life continues and things have to die before new things can begin. I know I was talking to myself more than to my daughter.

This year past year has been hard, but no more than I allowed. Do all good things come to an end? Only if you think you were meant to have something or someone forever. We can never own another heart or person, but are gifted with a shared journey that gives great strength and encouragement while shining a light on those areas of weakness that need to be dealt with. There is not just "one good thing", thank God, but many.

Are you from the olden days?

Children have a habit of putting you in your place whether you know it or not.

It is school holidays and I am enjoying spending time with my daughter. We were talking about dvds and videos and she commented about how dvds take up less space. I made the mistake of saying that videos were new and wonderful when I was her age. "Mummy, are you from the olden days?" Someone kill me now PLEase!!!

Enjoy your children.
