This last few weeks have been tough with several people in our church passing away as well as a number of others in the parish. As the sun shines and the flowers bloom signs of new life are everywhere yet in contrast I've had to witness the saddest of times .
After my second funeral of the this week I really felt the circle of life in action, a woman truly dying of a broken heart never recovering from the loss of her husband yet her children being so strong and courageous offering people sunflower seeds after the service to keep those memories alive.
And as all this goes on our own little family circle of life continues to grow and as tiredness kicks I remain grateful for supportive family and friends, those who will pray instantly when I'm struggling, those who will listen to me off load on Facebook at all times of the night, those who know just when to text.
Life is a funny affair, we don't know what is round the corner so cease every moment , enjoy every second and appreciate those you love.
