One of my daughters posted this on her FB page today. As I read it emotions that I thought had sufficiently been stuffed inside came rising up to the surface; releasing a flood of tears. The outpouring of feelings led me to record my thoughts and motivated me to share these words.

We, as a family, have had a very difficult year. Some of us more than others. 2015 has been long and hard. I’m looking forward to saying goodbye and turning my back on a boat-load of heartache.

Here’ to NEW Beginnings! Let’s hope 2016 is a better one.
