Onesome. Happy. When you think about being happy, what comes to mind? Is there something that always gives you a smile no matter how down you may be? Oddly enough my parents. In the past few years that I have spent in Canada, and away from my family home.. I have realized truely how blessed I am to have these people in my life that love me so much. I never had an easy relationship with my parents from about the time I was 15 and till shortly after I moved out. I think many people have gone through that situation to where they end up getting along better with their family when they are no longer on a day to day basis with them. I though have realized just how much I value them; their advice, my father’s terrible relentless teasing (cause of MANY MANY fights in the household), my mother’s hugs. When you cannot have them, you understand exactly how much it really affected your life. Knowing that our relationship has become one of friendship and love, to where we can have a conversation without hating each other at the end, makes me very happy. Something that always makes me smile, when thinking about them.. is my dad.. and his music. We both enjoy the same kind, and whenever I hear something we both know.. I think of him, and feel better because we always have that connection.
Twosome. Thanksgiving. In the US, it’s Thanksgiving. But we can all be thankful. Tell us, what are YOU thankful for? I’m thankful for my parents, my husband and my friends. That even through distance and time.. there are certain things, that still keep us all together somehow.. be it music, wallace & gromit.. or one ill tempered fridge guardian.. and I’m glad for that.
Threesome. 2003. It’s getting close to the end of another year. As you begin to reflect back, pick out a couple of good things that have happened this year. Yeah, we all have the bad, but today, just focus on the good! GOod things that happened this year.. ohboy.. well. Immigration papers were sent out, the husband and I had our 1st anniversary together, settled more into my photography, had a lovely vacation, met several new and beautiful friends.. and overall just enjoyed the time i had with everyone. There wasn’t a whole lot of bad this year -knocks on wood-…
arnt you sweet beck… :)
