Such a simple sentence but at times in life you might just find it a life saver. I certainly did two years ago when life turned upside down, and still there have been days when to move forward feels nigh on impossible. Slowly though you learn to take one step at a time, and occasionally it can feel great.

Other weeks, like this week, it might feel more like a lean forward than a move forward, but that’s okay too.

We were in Brussels for Robert’s 65th Birthday, and hadn’t planned our visit at all. Not like us to arrive in a new city with no idea of what we were going to do or see. However on this occasion we had done so much before from going to the paralympics to a Birthday meal with family in London to organising our Eurostar travel, we had kind of forgotten Brussels was our final destination. I still remember our joy when we stepped around a street corner and found ourselves stumbling upon this procession.

  1. I love those parade balloons. I’ve never seen one except on television — at least not floating though I’ve see a lot of stationary balloons on lawns, especially around Halloween and Christmas. I have ballons, but they both say “Get Well” and somehow, I didn’t think that was quite the right “tone.”
