About me

Hi, my name's Angela and I live in Glasgow with my two children Caitlin and Dominic. I was with Clive for ten years and getting married was something we were always going to get round to. But we did on March 10th this year in the Prince and Princess of Wales Hospice as Clive was very ill at that point. The nurses did a fantastic job of making Clive's room as 'wedding like' as the could, we had balloons and a cake! It was a lovely service given the circumstances.
Clive and I met at work - he was a clinical psychologist, I was a psychiatric nurse. We were both with other people initially and got together in January 2000. We had a great 10 years and although it ended much too quickly, I wouldn't trade a single minute of it. The old cliche goes 'better to have lost in love than never to have loved at all'. I'll always love Clive.

December Thoughts

Virgin Mary
The blessed one
Baby Jesus
Gods only son

Children laughing
Church bells ringing
Nativity plays
Choirs singing

Baking mince pies
Hanging holly
Writing cards
Full shopping trollies

Santa’s sleigh
Skating on ice
Cold winter days
Pink sugar mice

Dundee cake
A glass of port
Model trains
Presents bought

Playing board games
Families coming to stay
Chocolate logs
Oh happy Days

Pulling crackers
White snow flakes
Pine cones
And Christmas cakes

Oranges and apples
A brand new penny
Chestnut stuffing
Glacier cherries

As the 25th of December
Is drawing near
I wish you all Merry Christmas
And a Happy New Year

The Pink Dress

There was this little girl sitting by herself in the park.
Everyone passed by her and never stopped to see why she looked so sad.
Dressed in a worn pink dress, barefoot and dirty, the girl just sat And watched the people go by.
She never tried to speak.
She never said a word.
Many people passed by her, but no one would stop.
The next day I decided to go back to the park in curiosity to see If the little girl would still be there.
Yes, she was there, right in the very spot where she was Yesterday, and still with the same sad look in her eyes
Today I was to make my own move and walk over to the little girl.

For as we all know, a park full of strange people is not a place for young children to play alone.
As I got closer I could see the back of the little girl's dress.
It was grotesquely shaped.
I figured that was the reason people just passed by and made no Effort to speak to her.
Deformities are a low blow to our society and, heaven forbid if you make a step toward assisting someone who is different.

As I got closer, the little girl lowered her eyes slightly to Avoid my intent stare.
As I approached her, I could see the shape of her back more clearly.
She was grotesquely shaped in a humped over form.
I smiled to let her know it was OK; I was there to help, to talk.
I sat down beside her and opened with a simple, 'Hello'

The little girl acted shocked, and stammered a 'hi '; after a long stare into my eyes.
I smiled and she shyly smiled back.
We talked until darkness fell and the park was completely empty.
I asked the girl why she was so sad.
The little girl looked at me with a sad face said, 'Because, I'm Different...'

I immediately said, 'That you are!'; and smiled.
The little girl acted even sadder and said, 'I know.'
'Little girl,' I said, 'you remind me of an angel, sweet and innocent.'
She looked at me and smiled, then slowly she got to her feet and Said, 'Really?'
'Yes, you're like a little Guardian Angel sent to watch over all the people walking by.'

She nodded her head yes, and smiled.
With that she opened the back of her pink dress and allowed her Wings to spread, then she said 'I am.'
'I'm your Guardian Angel,' with a twinkle in her eye.
I was speechless -- sure I was seeing things.
She said, 'For once you thought of someone other than yourself.

My job here is done'..
I got to my feet and said, 'Wait, why did no one stop to help an Angel?'
She looked at me, smiled, and said, 'You're the only one that could see me,' and then she was gone.
And with that, my life was changed dramatically.
So, when you think you're all you have, remember, your angel is Always watching over you.

Pass this to everyone that means anything at all to you.

Make sure you send it back to the person who sent it to you, to Let them know you're glad they care about you.


Like the story says, we all need someone...

And, every one of your friends is an Angel in their own way.

The value of a friend is measured in the heart.

I hope your Guardian Angel watches over you always.
