A Purpose

Life took me for a ride up It took me It took me down It spun me round and round like a spinning top () () unknowing where it will stop out of control one minute then in control the next changes and more changes arranging and rearranging Building and taking apart in the journey called life brought to a place to fulfill a purpose. 28/06/17

I agree...life is sure like this Phyl. I hope you are mending well after your surgery? I can relate to slowing down. If I walk too fast, my knees have me on crutches. It is the hardest thing for me to deal with...slowing down. Cheers, Connie : )

Thanks Connie. Yes I have a bad knee so know if you overuse it and how you suffer. I am mending slowly. Picked up an infection so set me back a bit. All is all hoping by 8 weeks will be back to myself. love phyl

loved this, Phyll - hope you're feeling much better now & that the get well card has reached you by now (I know snail mail really does seem to be delivered by snails at times) x

Hi Anne Lise. Yes patience is what you need. Not being able to bend over yet is hard thank goodness for flip flops and that it is summer. love phyl

At least that's what we've been told, everything happens for a purpose. Hoping you are feeling better, Mrs Phyllis:)
