I agree with Santas appeal to open our hearts In my home country many people were emphatic but all the refugees from Syria and elsewhere has meant a change in opinions. The prime minister who was in charge before the present one lost the election because he said” open up your hearts”

It’s really hard when you hear the stories behind the tragedy in Syria.. Those poor families who now have no access to clean water … it’s impossible to imagine! Thank you for opening your heart.. we need more people like you! x

It’s definitely all about opening our hearts Wendy. And mine feels expansively open lately with so many personal family issues to deal with. But it’s all about moving forward isn’t it. Hope you’re doing well my friend. xo

Hi Miriam.. I’m sorry I’ve not popped across to yours this week.. I’ve had a bit of a mad week so will be doing a major catch up very soon.. I hope you’re ok and all the family things are settling down.. Strangely that’s what’s kept me busy this week.. combined with a stupid decision to do some decorating which has tipped up the whole house.. It is about moving forward Miriam – one step at a time… and a journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step.. Take care Miriam and sending a big hug! x

Hi Wendy, please don’t be sorry, life has a tendency to get s little crazy busy sometimes. Things will settle down eventually. Doesn’t help when we tip up the whole house though! I can kinda relate to that though. I’m gearing up for a big anniversary weekend away with the hub and feel like I have barely enough time to scratch myself! Good luck at your end Wendy and sending you a BIG hug. xo

Ahh thanks Miriam.. much appreciated!! Wow – sounds like a wonderful weekend ahead and I’m sure it will be lovely once you finally set off.. I know what you mean though – particularly with Xmas so close sometimes you meet yourself coming backwards! Once you get in the car you can give a big ‘sigh’ and RELAX!! Have an amazing time… xxx
