James Nesbitt is one of my favourite actors. For more
reasons than his sexy voice and good looks, remember Bloggets, it’s been 20
years since I had sight, he may have changed in his, mirror, but to me James,
you will always be a stud muffin. Smile. Well he has a JustGiving page, he has
teamed up with Fighting Blindness and is hoping to raise money for premature
babies to prevent them from going blind. 300 baby’s eyesight can be saved with
the hope that James has with his fund-raising page. It’s a sad world when
eyesight could be saved if only there is enough money. Thanks to the public, I pray
these babies sight will be saved.
Now, old Bloggets will know I have distant history with
Thompsons holiday company. Way back in the 70’s when I was the size of a doll,
a bitter cold winter in Moscow and a load of press, created a situation. But
that is another story that I have shared and again I hope to in my autobiography
when I get the inspiration to write it in full. Anyway, they are now wanting to
be known as,
Tui
Oh, my, that name isn’t
going to role from my tongue. Not when it’s been Thompsons for so long. I just
don’t know why they are changing their name when they are known worldwide? I’m
sure they have a good reason.
Thank you to those who have been asking about my friend in
America, bless you all. Well after her open-heart surgery, and many
complications afterwards, two days ago, she had to have a blood clot removed
another operation. She is in her 80’s and was very weak, but her lovely
daughter has been keeping me up to date and her Mum has thank God survived
another day another dollar. I told you she is a fighter. I have never met a
lady with as much fight in her. She is so positive and this knock in her world will
have affected her mental health I am sure, but knowing her, she will battle and
I pray will get strong again. She isn’t the kind of person to sit still and
laying in bed will be driving her crazy, hopefully crazy enough to give her the
determination to build up the strength she needs right now.
She has RP but hasn’t really been bothered with it until
lately. Her sight has got a lot worse over the past couple of years, but, she
did get to a great age before she started to lose her vision and still has a
lot as far as I know. But facing blindness has not stopped her from being so
positive about what is out there for those who need help, like cane training,
she is on the list to do so and the day she received her white cane, was like a
child opening their Christmas gifts. She was so excited.
She is a very intelligent lady and an inspiration to me for sure.
She is blessed in having a fantastic family her daughter is like her sister and
best friend, they have wonderful girly days together, I love to hear about her
days out. She’s like my beautiful friend and our Blogget in South Africa, wow, I
eat and drink her words. To me, when I see an email from her I am filled with
joy. She too has RP. She is in her seventies. She sounds to me though rather trendy.
She still takes good care of herself. Her life is a perfect picture but it’s
real at the same time, it’s like a forest painting with beautiful colours of
the surrounding foliage, with a stunning pure blue sky with the sun shining on
the wild flowers, but, if you look close enough, there will be a fallen nest
with broken eggs in it, then a lovely red squirrel is in the corner of the picture
but a rabbit lays lifeless. Only if you look close there are moments that make this
lovely ladies life not so perfect, but that is what is so perfect about her to
me. She isn’t nauseating. I know of someone who really likes to make out as if
her life nothing bad ever happens. I can’t stand it, as her life can’t be this
perfect all the time, and the difference is, the person who likes to depict her
perfect world, I wouldn’t want her life, but my friend, I would love her life.
I wonder if what I have written makes any sense? I often don’t.
I guess what I am trying to say is my friend from SA, has a beautiful life, and
for sure the way she writes is art in itself. Her words dance on paper. I told
her she could write the phone directory and it would be poetic to me. Her grasp
of the English language is just the best. Where is my friend who has a perfect
life in her opinion, it’s far from that description? I really find it difficult
to talk with her but my friend from South Africa, if she was the only one left
in the world, I wouldn’t get bored of her. And I love the sound of her daughter
too, wow, she is a real gift. Like a super hero. And again, she’s real, not
pretend like the other example.
So, my friend who had a really bad cold for weeks, is
getting better, my friend who has had open heart surgery I pray will be OK and
a Blogget from India, I have been concerned about of late, turns out he hasn’t
been in a good place, but again, is fighting and not standing still. Our
Blogget family, we have to stand together help each other out and send positive
powerful vibes around the world.
If you are not feeling great today, remember tomorrow is
another day and when there seems to be no hope, dare to find some. And, no body’s
perfect, we all are one step up from the devil and one step below the angels.
Smile.
