I don't know about other people but music is a great source of joy for me. When I feel down, I put on some music, and I'm lifted, I dance (yeah, I do!) and I'm transported to another place.
I've written a few worship songs and sung them at my old church. I've had comments from people, saying that they relate to me, because I'm real and they know where I have come from, which is a pretty dark place and it inspires them when they feel depressed. That's when I realise just how much God has worked in me and changed me for the better....still loads of room for improvement though lol!
I am a worshipper, most definately, I love to worship God, there is no greater pleasure for me, the feeling of being close to God in worship, it's so sweet. Even when I feel low, I can sing God's praises, can't get better than that! Amen!!!

Hello everyone,
Well, here I am, trying to blog again! I look at the blogs on here and think, why do I bother? they're all interesting, funny, thoughful, whereas, I just tend to prattle on........
I'm going to talk about my life a little, see if there's anyone else out there going through much the same as me; I'm sure there will be.
I'm on my own with two boys, aged 8 and 13. My eldest has Asperger's syndrome, Dyspraxia, ADHD and Scoliosis. he is due to have an operation on his spine; it may be in a few short weeks. I will know for definate next week.
Recently , I have been feeling very tired and I think some of that is down to stress, wondering, hoping, praying that my lad will be ok after the operation. It's a biggie, will take about five hours, to fit titanium rods to his spine, to straighten it. Helpless, is the word I would use to describe my feelings. Sort of scared too. I do pray about the situation but sometimes feel very alone in my endeavours to keep my family healthy, happy and well, peaceful.
I have a depressive illness, for which I take medication and I also have diabetes, so I sometimes find it an uphill struggle to keep everything going, sometimes feel like giving up. Most of the time though, I am positive, and just know how fortunate I am, when compared to others who are struggling.
I went to church today and ended up crying in the loos..lol!..I know...this little voice said from the other side of the toilet door, "my dear, are you alright?"...to which I said, oh yes I'm fine thank you!!...Don't we say the daftest things?
Anyway...felt better for crying and a lady prayed with me...God seems to pick his times to make me vulnerable , usually in a full church and I don't do crying in public!!
I'm sat here, typing this and listening to the birds twittering, the children playing outside and feel peaceful, safe, in God's hands, who knows all my needs, my wants, my desires; what more could I ask for?
