Friday is my favourite day of the week, because it’s the beginning of
the weekend, and a day that I get to spend with my husband. The weeks and
months fly by so fast, the summer is drawing to an end and here we are, already
in September. Life is awfully short, so make the most out of each moment, don’t
put off tomorrow what you can do today, and if you get a chance to spend time
with people you love, jump at it. I spent quality time with someone special
yesterday, having lunch together we chatted away a few hours. Being with people
who make you feel good and that you enjoy their company is like a dose of good
medicine. Have a wonderful weekend wherever you are and enjoy, relax and have
some fun. Here is a poem I wrote in the early hours of the morning whilst you were all peacefully sleeping in your beds (unless you too have Parkinson's and find yourself awake half the night!). Just think of all the Parkinson's patients awake around the world, if we could somehow get together, we could have a global party!
It takes but a thought, an original idea,
Setting in motion, wheels begin to turn,
Aspirations and ambitions born,
Following our dreams we yearn.
But when chronically ill,
Your path is not clear,
To find reason or rhyme,
Hope answers will appear.
There’s always a silver lining,
No matter how thin it may be,
That if you look closely,
Something unexpected you’ll see.
