A Cross To Bear

Life is filled with questions, some have answers and some you cannot find. I have seen many with a cross to bear, heavy~painful~so unfair. Fire is needed to make gold pure, is this fire to make them stronger. When trouble comes they will make it through, because they have been through the fire. Some live their life with no cross to bear, they live life as time goes by. When trouble comes they will fall apart, because they have Not been through the fire. I have seen this in many lives, when divorce~sickness~death comes they fall apart. We may not know what others are going through, A Cross To Bear. Be kind~loving, put sunshine in everyone's day.

I have been to helll and back, so many times, Paula ...the fire actually strengthens you, dear heart. I am here in hospital with my broken leg. Horrible! But will do my best to come round. I have not been around much due to being in hospital. Sorry Panagiota Yikes, just had a blood test. Not fun
