I am so often swamped by unexpected tears or voicelessness, for the feelings too deep to speak about. So sad your friend lost her fight for life. I fear for your eyesight and often feel the same way, as if I am reading (and writing) as fast as I can, while I still am able to. No matter how often or how much you write, we who read you are always lifted up by your words and we treasure each and every one.Sherry Blue Skyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10769154286598233146noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7577160948898919178.post-41509617760184010842014-09-16T02:41:28.592+01:002014-09-16T02:41:28.592+01:00PS.

I found the link the Outlook radio progamme online (I had to look for it just to prove to myself that I didn't completely imagine having listened to such a thing!). So here it is (and you can still listen again):<br />http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p02559vkInfinite Richeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01121206842369751170noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7577160948898919178.post-79993119754363940312014-09-16T02:39:03.705+01:002014-09-16T02:39:03.705+01:00Shaista T, I am reading you too, today! Or rather ...Shaista T, I am reading you too, today! Or rather tonight - or is it tomorrow now?! All I know is that it is 2:25am and I have been awake without rest let alone sleep since 5pm two days ago and I feel simultaneously delirious and utterly despondent. <br />But for some reason, I came here, which I have not been able to do for AGES, and happened upon this 'Hawkish' post (and several others too!). Plus a wonderful photo of an autumnal lane which looks just like 'donkey lane' in the village just by mum and dad's house.<br />I'm so sorry you're grieving. I have no words of wisdom on that subject (on any subject!) except that you must give yourself time...<br /><br />As for what you're achieving. Well, when you look behind you, I know you will remember how VERY far you have come and frustrated as you feel (and I understand why and how you do), you definitely ARE doing things.<br /><br />As for the hawk book, weirdly I heard a radio programme about her not long ago (I think it was 'Outlook' on the BBC world service - and it was the first and only time I've listened to that in months!) and she was fascinating. I longed to read the book but alas I can't read that or any, so am v glad you are and that it's chiming such a chord with you... <br /><br />Sending love over the 'net from not-very-far-away-in-miles (but feels like another universe!), KTD xoxInfinite Richeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01121206842369751170noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7577160948898919178.post-4005657833227219732014-09-16T00:52:28.017+01:002014-09-16T00:52:28.017+01:00Marco, muchos gracias for always writing such cari...Marco, muchos gracias for always writing such caring and thoughtful comments for me.
