I was his pet, he always brought me with him when he was going anywhere and when he needed a hand at home I got kept off school. Can you visualise your life now if someone passed was still in it and how different things might be if they were still here?

My dad would be delighted, Christmas would be Christmas again, we'd go for our little shopping trips, I would share my experiences with her, I'd have my anchor back. There is another way of looking at it though. Not having her meant I found out that the only anchor you have in life is yourself. Nobody else will prop you up. Sure there are people who support you and love you but ultimately contentment rests with yourself. I miss her everyday but not having her gave me an inner resilience I didn't have before. Same question to you

I still think of the old fella and what he would think on things I'm doing on the farm even yet, and he's yonks dead, and my twin brother as well everytime I'm at something we used to do together. Not a sadness but just what they would make of things I've done at home and the way the world has changed. Where's the party tonight?
