  3. Chuck is slipping away, I can't stop it and it's breaking my heart. Near the end now.

    If you have a moment please think of him, he's a super-sweet soul and I'll make sure he has a comfortable rest.

  5. Love and Wishes
    ©️ Nona Rose 2023

    I love my job.
    But I wish the pay was better.

    I love where I live.
    But I wish it weren’t so expensive.

    I love my friends.
    But I wish they were more supportive.

    I love my son.
    But I wish I had more kids.

    I love my mum.
    But I wish she had her own life.

    I love social media.
    But I wish it provided more engagement.

    I love writing.
    But I wish it was easier to get published.

    I love my crush.
    But I wish he loved me back.

    I love photography.
    But I wish more people hired me.

    I love my life.
    But that doesn’t mean it’s perfect.

    🌹
