Sorrow and Joy

This week we have had 2 gatherings of our family, we travelled to the North West again to say our final goodbye to my dear Uncle John.

As the family gathered together to comfort one another in their sadness all around us was the sense of solidarity, security and love.

The second gathering of our family was filled with joy and laughter as we shared a meal, caught up on each others daily lives, celebrated birthdays and the joyous news of new life and all around us there it was again... the sense of solidarity, security and unconditional LOVE.

Count your blessings this week.
Shelly.
