What gives you direction in life?
I have to say Family,
Stability,
Dependability,
Mediator.
Being someone to rely on in a crisis.
To find laughter on tough days.
Advocating and teaching to advocate for themselves.
To always teach no matter what give it a chance. If it goes wrong, take a break and try again.
You can’t always take away someone’s pain but you can ride through it with them.
That’s it for tonight
Much love Faye

HOW WOULD YOU IMPROVE YOUR COMMUNITY?
Its very simple really , be kind , dont judge people before you give them a chance. You never know them if you first don’t say hi and ask them about themselves, we all guilty of pre-Judging I think over the years We lost something important people skills.
Times are different when I grew up where family and community were part of life.
We here older people talk about the good old days , they were tough but you were never alone you spent time chatting to people , at the shops , days out.
These days, everyone is trying to find their group , their communities.
We live in our world now where everything is talked about more openly with people you probably will never meet in real life. Because there is miles between you.
Neighbours come and go replaced by new families.
Friendships fall apart quicker over disagreements,
Sometimes life is so fast-paced that you dont have time to stop and chat.
Have a beautiful weekend
Daily prompt
What secret ability do you have? Or wishes you had.?
Intuition and Empathy.
Both I think are important things.
I think it’s is something I have always had.
Maybe, though, because routine plays a huge part in my life and experiences keep me on high alert for things that can go wrong.
There is a subtle change in people I can pick up on easily. People’s tone of voice, the way they say something , body language. Or unspoken differences.
Maybe that’s part of being a carer. You have to be so observant of all these things
I guess though it is like walking in a room some people you emidatly feel at home with and others something tells you to be aware and on alert.
Maybe we all subcontiously judge people, but the empathy kicks in when you decide to give someone a chance despite your spidy senses being up.
I have had many intuitive moments in my lifetime, but maybe that’s also because I know the person I have this intuition about.
I would say it’s a secret ability but also a hard thing to live with sometimes.
Have a beautiful day 😀
You’re going on a cross-country trip. Airplane, train, bus, car, or bike?
Car less crowded, I can stop when I want , I love to take in the views as I drive.
Music in the background, no scedual or set times, just the road.
Many times, I have made the cross-country trip to visit mum at home or hospital. Visit my sons.
The destination is always family.
There is something peaceful about that.
Talking on the phone or messaging is never the same as seeing people in person.
Night Night much love Faye ❤️
