Taking the plunge

For @Former-Member@Former-Member@Former-Member and me!!!!

I'm caught inside a torrent

Of water crashing through

So often feel I'm drowning

And don't know what to do

Can't swim against the currents

Pounding waters push me on

I have no strength to battle

The fight is hard and long

I notice as I'm tossed

Beneath the waters vast and wide

A human chain is forming

Standing side by side

They catch me as I plunge the water

Its something they do well

Each one has been caught in this fight

Their stories they do tell

Once my fall is softened

I look back to where they are

The human chain has formed again

Someone else is falling through

Now I recognise those smiles

Theyre our mates who know what we're going through.

Fantastic @Maggie - loved it. We are the human chain to catch each other when we fall and bounce each other back up again xxxxx

Hi @Maggie..... someone special posted this for me a couple of weeks ago .... I figure she won’t mind me sharing the love around a bit where it’s needed most ...... 💗

Thank you @Former-Member

Healing from a breakdown takes time. Not to mention the shock of the last week for you.

For me there has been vast improvement, but I still have mental scars that can slow me down. I understand where you are coming from. Its good to be there for others, but we also need our private space to chill and recoup. Thats why i love peace and quiet so much.

I have been doing just that today lol. Taking it a bit easier as it will be a full on weekend with my daughter, but I have to be there for her or she is likely to go backwards. I wouldnt forgive myself. So the pressures on a bit. One day at a time...holding onto hope we move forward at our pace. Have a relaxing evening xxx

@Maggie

beautiful concept....

love the fact that you said "and me!!!!"

all of us trying to be here for each other when we can..

today I am going to be gentle with myself and allow no self-criticism....

what will you all do for yourselves today?

@Former-Member @Maggie @Former-Member @Former-Member

oh @Faith-and-Hope thankyou.

@Former-Member No self criticism is a really good one. I'm going easy because no choice atm, world spins if I don't. @Former-Member How's the hair????? @Former-Member Try to get some rest. @Faith-and-Hope Hope you are going ok.🙃🙃🙃🙃🙃
