I have always- almost always- been grateful
for most things in my life.
I always worked pretty hard as I was taught to.
I went on holiday for the first time on my own,
met someone, we fell in love and
came back engaged.
Three months later we got married,
we are still married now, from 1978
I was at first afraid it was just a dream.
But Robert is the real thing.
I can't live without him, as
I would fail completely.
When one of us dies , the
other will follow soon.
My sister promised to take our dog.
There have been things or persons
I am not happy about.
But who does not have these?
I like to end with a happier note:
Hope we get some of our health back,
rather sooner than later.
This is not a dream, sheer reality
