Reflections: I am Sorry

I am sorry; I have not been constant in my writing, In November 2017, they moved my husband to a senior lodge, for extra care.

It has been a transition for all of us. I found the last year a lonesome time after so many years of marriage together. 

After, almost a year now I am looking forward to moving into a smaller apartment.

Along with the sorting of years of memories, furniture, books, and papers, and arranging to sell our house, it’s been hectic. All the while wondering why I held on to so much “stuff.”

I would ask if you would remember me in prayer for the next few months. I get overwhelmed by all the decisions of downsizing in all areas and letting go of things.

I have been praying that God will help me to live with open hands and an open heart.  To pass on the things I have loved and enjoyed,  I need to learn to bless others as He has blessed me. ©

“A memory is a photograph taken by the heart to make a special moment last forever.”  And sweet memories remind us of the roads we have traveled and the people we have loved. Unknown author
Praise the Lord. Blessed are those who fear the Lord, who find great delight in his commands. Psalm 112

Thank you, dear friends, for spending your time with me.
 I love you all and am praying.

 
HUGS,
Lovingly, Karan

    Wishing you peace and a continued sense of God’s presence this Christmas season. What a job to have moved! I hope that when the last picture is hung and the last piece of cutlery is in the right place, that you can have a very long, deserved rest. You and Lyle are often in my thoughts and prayers… lucille

    Karan, I’m sorry to hear this…we didn’t know. I can only imagine how hard it has been/is for you. Wondering if Lyle is in Taber? Or Lethbridge, or the Hat? Where will you be moving? And yes, I will pray for you! Love, Norma
