One of those diabetes days….

This time of year I struggle with my diabetes. 
It’s not about being overweight, or being stick thin, 
This is about your auto immune system being attacked constantly within. 

You see, it‘a life… unless their is a solution there is nothing you can do,
This is about science and God working together, to resolve this condition that is attacking people like me… and perhaps you.

Today, it was raining and also it felt really cold,
my auto immune system was constantly attacked, I ate the sugar that was with me but that was a temporary reprieve, 
I am at home now, resting and at peace and slightly relieved.

This condition will be the killer of me,
But I need to stay with God, the one who has supported me through thick and thin
One day this condition will be no longer…but that comes with prayer from within.

Release

Releasing your feelings is when…:
Some people shout
Some peope moan, 
Some people acknowledge, and other feelings we can’t identity in ourselves, therefore are unknown. 

Some people write
Some people, stop and reflect, 
Some people pray to God… and ask: “Father reveal yourself… I know I have never been… perfect.”

Some people seek to be the centre of attention, 
Some people want to know if there’s something ‘out there’, 
Why do people seek something they can’t see… but blame a God they don’t believe is there,
These are thoughts I feel I needed to share.

Some people need to let go,
Some people are searching for answers, but won’t reveal themselves to grow,
Some people need to accept that life isn’t fair, 
Learn through the battles you are presented with, God is always there. 

How many times, have I said God is here today
The pain is hard to manage, especially when you feel vulnerable and lonely,
Until we realise it’s about God and your faith in him
This complaining that you release shall be put in the bin.

An angel is always their

The home in heaven, now I have arrived,
Destined to reach a peaceful place,
No longer in pain, the Earth guides us to this spiritual home in order to embrace.

The people who have left
There shall eventually be peace in our hearts, 
The chaos of the world will always surround, but we don’t need to be apart.

Don’t worry, I am okay and you shall be too;
God’s guidance is the place we detect
Calming our heartbeat doesn’t mean we are aiming to be perfect. 

Remember, we have loved but never lost,
God’s timing is part of our day to day,
My Angel, I send a blessing for you now,
We all love you, and thank you for us to allow.

“Claire bless you always”

Went on that road

I didn’t expect it, to be absolutely fair 
I wanted to die and end it there.
It was 2023 and my Dad unexpectedly passed away,
I didn’t want to reach out nor did I want to stay.

It was chaos
I was hurting in my heart,
Alcohol became my best friend, it calmed me down… my family, those chaotic Greeks were not calming at all from the start.

The drink took over
I made it my best friend, 
It was a sad time as all the uncertainty was becoming so real, I even felt my God wasn’t there to depend on, as that felt surreal.

I was scared 
I didn’t need the chaos inside my head,
The drink was taking over as all I wanted for God to take me instead. 

People cared but I felt people expect me to snap out of this quick,
I can only thank my God today for taking away my addiction, even though I couldn’t depict.

Let go and trust in him…

However you perceive God to be? 
Let go and have that touch of faith, 
It’s about praying and discerning in order to remove the haste.

It’s all about today and be grateful through a prayer, 
There is an omnipresence, which is available to share. 

Leave it to the God of your understanding,
Today can and will be a beautiful day,
Building resentments generally have no place in your head to relay.

I now safeguard my heart, I now don’t despise, 
I need to lean on the God of my understanding every second of the day,
I pray for the same for you.., this new day shall have God’s final say.

Do you remember???

Do we remember the day when neighbours side to speak to each other, 
‘Top of the Pops’ brought a smile to all our faces, 
Music was uplifting back then and took us to fantasy places. 

Things were perfect, even back then
But they were managble and people looked out for their friends, 
There was Youth training schemes to get youngsters the start to be on their way,
When these youngsters went to college one day a week,
As a trade took them to places which they often flourished and rightly peaked.

Do you remember people were more patient?
And phones were a thing we had indoors, 
And the TV has 3 or 4 channels, these things were more manageable during these times…as we wanted no more.

It wasn’t perfect, 
Technology didn’t dictate what we did day to day, 
We wouldn’t say ‘I’ll send you an email’ from what was already discussed
We learned to listen and through those methods we were able to trust. 

The pace was slower
And yes, people were limited in their thinking to a degree,
It was because we did more physical things and able to be.

We learned to have a pen and paper with us at all times,
Where we jotted information by having a trained memory, which held information as google search engine wasn’t around 
And we learned to be more vigilent and learned to be with our friends, to keep their feet more on the ground.

Remember the 1990s

Do you remember when we dialled up to get the internet started?
And we had a compact disc to release the music we felt uplifting and delved wholehearted. 

Do you remember the big TVs, that were heavy and needed two of you to lift?
And the Nokia 3210, the mobile phone which was indestructible like a mini brick,
And those days we put the phone down and didn’t pick it up until the following morning, 
Those were the days when the ‘ping’ from our phones rarely started calling. 

There was ‘The Word’, ‘Big Breakfast’ and Saturday daytime TV,
We didn’t feel compelled to our phones to check emails and or texts,
We had letters which came from a written list,
A physical thing we often couldn’t miss.

We had ‘Take That’, with ‘pray’ and  ‘relight my fire’,
We had night clubs and a kebab afterwards, those things we didn’t need but always desired.

He had fun and knew how to focus more,
Yes, the 90s had it quirks and way of living,
But those were the days we had teletext, our version of the latest news
Those were the day we didn’t need smartphones to make us feel amused. 

“90s enjoyment and challenges…”
