No Copyright infringement is intended. I just want to share this song with other people.
No doubt this is going to be seen by a certain few as an attention seeking post, but I don't care what they think. I'm also not looking for sympathy, I'm just simply going to say what I have to and get it all out in the open.
May 2018, I wasn’t bothering with a 40th birthday party in order to put the finishing touches to the renewal of my wedding vows to my husband after 10 years of marriage. Since then, I have moved house twice, left 2 jobs and we have split up.
Since January 2019, I have been so very close to taking my own life on several occasions; I just wanted to give up. But, however close I came, especially through the actions of a certain person who will remain nameless, I stopped myself, mainly because I was too worried about the people I would be leaving behind.
Thankfully, I am slowly getting out of that dark place and I am starting to build myself back up again.
So, on my 41st birthday, I want to thank those people who took time out of their own lives and worries to contact me, just to see how I was doing and to give me support and positivity. I am not going to name you, but I can’t begin to tell you how much it meant to me. A simple ‘Thank you’ would not be enough.
I have also seen those who have deserted me like rats on a sinking ship - whether this is because they have listened to and believed the lies that have been told about me lately, I just don’t know, to be honest, I don’t care much either. (Just remember, there are two sides to every story, and the first one you hear may not be the truth!)
The other day I was reminded of a song that has a special meaning in my family and I would like to share this with you all. I'm not overly religious but i have to say, this song has helped. To quote C.C. Bloom in Beaches (1988) “This is a song I’ve been singing for a long time, it’s like an old friend. But I think it, it’s only recently that I discovered what it’s really about.”
