been thinking a lot of friends and those in my circles who are struggling with various life situations…

this time of year is difficult for so many… nearly everyone has memories of those who might be gone for the first time this year, or they might be thinking of past celebrations with loved ones… there are those who don’t have anyone to spend time with, whether it is because of family being away or estranged or just not having anyone… it can make for difficult moments…

recently someone pointed out the importance of listening, not focussing on what you want to add to a conversation…

trying hard to focus and celebrate the special moments and let the not-so-special ones go… 

today I was treated to rice rolls which I love… a lovely moment… had them for my dinner… 

didn’t put them in the fridge so they wouldn’t be cold when I ate them… yummy…
