The Choices Of Life!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have made some choices in my life that I may not have liked, but the things we choose as time goes by we have to live with regardless of if they are right or wrong.

Well I have decided that life is too short to keep looking back and judging the choices I have made, but to look forward and to enjoy the good things in life and try to change the not so good into better things.

OK so I'm ill, and I can't do a lot of the things I wish I could, or I used to be able to, and there is little I can do to change what has happened to date with my illness, but from here on in it is up to me and the choices I make on a daily basis as to what I do about being ill and my life around me.

You can see from my last diary entry that I still use a lot of energy up on letting other hurt me, and by trying to please others even at a huge cost to myself.

So from this day on I am going to only involve those who truly care in things I do and things of importance to me.

We have one more planned BBQ at the end of this month with people invited that are friends but live that bit to far away to be caring friends, so this one BBQ will go ahead as planned but after this it will only be true friends who care that will be invited to our home, or to join in with things in our life.

I have some friends who live in France who care more than some I see weekly here. These are true friends who would travel miles to see us, and even brave the tunnel despite being terrified of it; just to be our friends.

Then there are others who wouldn't even remember your birthday, or send you a Christmas card, even though you only live 15 miles away.

The sort who never phone and are so wrapped up in their own little world the rest of the world doesn't exist only to help them.

Well from this day forward anyone or anything that hurts my health or my family will not be invited to be part of our lives, if it forces it's way in beyond the invite it or they will be asked to leave.

Life is too short to surround yourself with negative emotions or people who don't really care about you.

So here's to a happy & more fruitful life, and to enjoying the little pleasures that surround us every day.
