Catch a shadow


There it goes,
don’t let it get away,
grab it, hold fast.

I can’t hold it. I need help.
Oh, it got away.
No! There it is.

Stand your ground don’t give up.
Where’d it go?
There it is your standing on it.
Wow! I caught my shadow.

Jack this is so cute my friend.

I love the way you play with words.

This little poem is about not giving up in ones chosen field.
I guess it was a strange way to say it. I trust you are well.

It's excellent. I think from time to time we can all give up on whatever our chosen field may be. I know I certainly have and have come to regret doing so.

I bounced back though, and it's true what you said you shouldn't give up - no matter what it is.

I care for my elderly aunt who has Alzheimers, life can be very difficult day to day, as I never know what each day will bring. She, poor soul, naturally does not even know she has this horrible condition, so her day is a very simple one. I am all she has in the world, which is why I am caring for her.

It may be that this will become too much for me, and she may have to go to a nursing home nearby, there are some excellent ones in my immediate area - alas, no matter how beautiful or good they are, I still feel this will be a last resort when, and only when, I can no longer cope.

I do wish they could find a magic pill for this condition, it's such sadness daily to watch and deal with.
