Josh Groban "You Raise Me Up" With Lyrics In 720p HD Lyrics: When I am down and, oh my soul, so weary; When troubles come and my heart burdened be; Then, I am still and wait here in the silence, Until you come and sit awhile with me. You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains; You raise me up ...

Re: Taking the plunge

Thank you @Maggie - one of my favourite songs. A perfect pick for me tonight 😀 - what I really needed to listen to right now. You are such a rare genuine lady.  I am really lucky to have such good friends in my life here in the real world - but I consider you the same as them and treasure our friendship - always 🌹 You are a shining diamond here 🌹

Re: Taking the plunge

Hi @Maggie - how are you going my friend? How was your day? Mine was a little hectic helping daughter settle back in. It will take some adjustment but this wasn't her fault as she was trying so hard on the outside. I feel sorry for her as she didn't deserve what happened. She is at work at the moment. She will now try and find a small one bedroom house to rent on her own. She prefers to live on her own.

I was listening to the song you shared with me again, it has to be one of my favourites and I found it very uplifting (no pun intended here). 

I am still struggling with my sleep hours, didn't nod off until 3:00 am and slept well into the morning. It's frustrating but just have to take it a day at a time and do my best. At least I slept this time lol. My spirits are picking up.

What did you do today? Did you get back out in the garden? It's so hot here @Maggie - 38 degrees predicted on the coast where I am this Sunday and 45 degrees out west 😬😓. Wish us luck! Hugs 🤗❤️

Re: Taking the plunge

Maggie, love your honesty. Keep being you. Embrace your beautiful. Not a nice feeling being abused in any manner, I know. You are still here and fighting. Courage comes in waves. Never feel bad about what you want to share. We are all human beings and entitled to freedom of speech. I was encouraged not to speak out for a long time. I'm breaking down those walls as we speak. I'm sure they'll call it a psychotic break but the truth about what makes us us, should never be left to fester alone in the dark. Chin up, you're a good person and deserve so much more from life.

Re: Taking the plunge

Hi @Maggie - you have been very quiet and I am hoping you are okaish. Is everything alright? I hope my previous avatar didn't upset you - it was a self expression of my innermost pain and it can be rough and scary at times, but I fight it and overcome -  it passes. I am good now. I apologise if this frightened you. I feel bad if that was the case. I have my old one back now and feeling back to my old sense 😊

I hope the pain in your shoulder has alleviated for you. 

Hoping you are doing alright and that you are happy. Missing you 😘

Re: Taking the plunge

Dear @Maggie, and a wave to @Former-Member @Former-Member @utopia @CheerBear @Zoe7.  And hello @Manicmatt22, we havent met before I dont think.  Lovely to see you here.

Maggie, I havent been around for several days and came on here this morning, only to find that you havent been on here for a number of days either.  Are you okay, I'm concerned for you?

I was outside around midnight last night with Holly and I had another visit from my resident ringtail possum.  So I got a strawberry from my fridge for him and this time he accepted it from me.  Taking it into his little paws and ate it with great delight.  You know how I didnt know if it was male or female before?  Well I know now that its a little female.  Last night while I was stroking her tail, I saw a lot of movement around the belly region.  Sure enough there is a pouch and as I watched a tiny little head poked out, then it must have summersaulted because there was a skinny little tail out the top of the pouch then.  Quite delightful it was.  I expect soon I will be seeing the baby getting around on its Mums back, rather than hidden in the pouch.

There was a full super moon last week Maggie, did you see it?  I sat and watched it for a long time, and thought of you.  I havent seen any recent photos from you of sunrises or garden flowers. Perhaps soon?  I hope so, I've missed our chats. 

I realise we need to stay on topic as per a thread I read the other day.  Little difficult to actually go off topic here really, taking the plunge can relate to almost anything.  So hope I'm not going off track too much.
