This time of year is very difficult, I think we all tend to look at what we've lost. I'm guilty of doing this myself. I am trying to think of the good in my life. At times like this you may not feel there's anything positive but there is.
I lost my grandpa who was like my dad (my father chose to stay out of my life) the day after Christmas a few years ago, so for me this time of year stinks but I am trying to find that positive vibe.
Taking life one day at a time even one hour at time is how we can get through it.
There's an old saying If you love something set it free, if it comes back it's meant to be. You have a lot to live for, it may not seem that way but you do.
It sounds like you, your brother and nieces are close. Can you help each other through this difficult time?
If I can be of any help,please feel free to pm me or post back here.
Hang in there

The holidays are a time we all tend to reflect back and wonder if only...
It's a very common thought among many people.
Hang in there everyone.
Merry Christmas

| Hi jo_1982
I understand about families all to well and them crossing the line. I have a big family but you'd never know it. We were very close but things change, I try to adjust to it the best I can. I focus on my own family (spouse and kids). They are my family now. I'm glad to hear you spent Christmas with your brother. I am dealing with so many health problems which are getting me down again. Remember I am here if you want to talk, it sounds like we have some family issues in common. Take Care and I hope you have a Happy New Year!! |
Hi Butterfly
Thanks for the reply it sure dose sound like we have same kind of family issues my family are way past that line of no return also been doin alot of thinking about my ex partner who walked out in june last year without a word after nearly 3 yrs together did think i was over him but something inside me misses him so much i cant work out weather i wanna try and go back and fix thing or weather i just need to see him to put a close to what we had as i have never had any answers to why hes done what he has only 2 weeks into this year so far and its already started with problems my brother has ended up moving back home as him and his partner have split up and its starting to get messy over the kids looks like the start to another stressful year anyway apart from my head banging life how are you? hows your new year so far? have not been on for abit as have had alot going on but will check for your reply in a few days take care
