Life's Tests

The worlds a strange place and it never fails to amaze me.
Just less than a week after letting out how I felt about my dad and my fear of him having an early death,
I get the news this morning that he had a heart attack last night and is in hospital. It's typical just as I say to the world "this is what I'm afraid of this is what I fear" life tries to test what your saying strait away. Luckily he was taken to hospital pretty soon so he should recover well.
I'm not sure if it's a good thing or not but i Have not shed a tear yet, but if I would have got the news a week ago I would have been devastated. Well I'll just have to wait until I get home from work it might all catch up then.

So my moral to this is make sure your ready for the challenge if your going to let your feelings be clear.
Because life will normally try to test you pretty shortly afterwords.

You

Six years has past since that day now. The day when my whole world was turned upside down, when everything fell apart, when every little feeling filled my heart at once.

Life

I've been called pretty. I've been called ugly. I've been smart. I've been dumb. I've loved often. But mostly I've lost. It's hard to believe things are so different. I've lost huge parts of my life.

Heartache

I've been chasing heartache, Running right up on its heels. Reaching out barely touching, The arguments that causes it yields. I've been chasing heartache, Sailing it to the end of the world.

Family

This is my family. Small, not fully functional and at times scared to death. But I love my family, without them I would be dead ... Without them I'd probably be in a ditch right now.

Nothing Personal

I can only take you seriously when you actually mean it. Inserting bad words really doesn't help unless you say it to my face.

I very rarely get moody or depressed but a few weeks ago due to a combination of events I found myself in that " life is a four letter word " place. I deleted all my posts and was ready to leave...

What Is True Love.

First of all writing something like this is completely out of character, this is for two reasons. 1. I'm a stereotypical male who never shows his feelings to his friends. 2.

I'm so sorry @stablish. At least hell be ok. Sometimes life does test you but you were ready for it by expressing yourself first. Hopefully everything will be alright. Hug x

He's gonna be allright!!!

@Liza @sark I was with him at the weekend decorating and something didn't feel right then. He can speak so that's good news. Things like that are the reason why I feel there is so much more to life than we know. Thanks for the good wishes positivity is always the best cure.

Damn right it is @Stablish just keep him smiling and everything will be ok x

@Liza my sisters going up there so I will tag along. Hopefully it's the wake up call he needs to slow down a bit.

Does he work too much? Yea maybe he needs more chill out time@Stablish

@Liza yeah he's addicted. When he gets home from work he never rests either. It's always one thing after another. I always put it to the fact that if he didn't he would have to much time to think about stuff. He didn't have the easiest upbringing.

Yea I suppose I'm the same way in that respect. Would keep busy than think about things. Has he tried council long? Or even talking u etc

@Stablish damn life can be a biatch sometimes. It's a test of character tho, life can throw stuff at us from time to time to see how we deal/cope with it. I truly hope he will be ok my friend. You said he talking, so that a good sign......hopefully we will calm down abit and enjoy, relax a little. ;-)

@Liza err I think he would laugh his arse off unfortunately even at the suggestion. I suppose that's a big reason I "try" not to hold stuff in.

I guess so. I use to be the sane

And was soo unwell. I'm slowly sorting it out tho

@smellyfingers yeah that's what I'm hoping, thanks for the wishes, means a lot from someone as high rank as you (-; lol

@smellyfingers ps. I've got a feeling it's only going to throw more my way. Now though I am starting to feel anticipation rather than fear.

@Liza happy to hear, it's not that easy to people so close)-:

@Liza to open up that is.

True. But it's not always talking. Just finding something that eases the problems or shows u uve moved on from those problems.

But I know it's different for everyone @Stablish

@Liza The best we can do is try. (-:

I hope everything will be okay. U nd Ur Dad are in my prayers. xxx

Hope he is ok mate. I always hold stuff in, don't know why, scared to show my emotions I suppose.

@bambz8701 Thank you that means much to me xx

@glensaggs yeah it's not easy, I still find it hard with some people. Like my dad ironically.

Awww babe I hope he gets better soon. Best wishes x x

@aleishagayle20 Thank you, my sister just phoned and said he is in good spirits so I couldn't hope for any better at the moment. (-:

@Stablish brilliant that's great news :-) x x

@Stablish When life throws things at you, you just gotta duck. Hopefully your dad will get better soon. :) 🏥

@RedWednesday thanks, I'm writing something nice now to show how I feel. (-:

I'm so sorry! I fear that too. But I'm sure he will be fine and I wish him a happy and healthy recovery!! Stay strong for him Xx

@annaa thank you, he's having a stint put in tomorrow so hopefully that all works out ok, he's in good spirits though.

I'm sorry to hear this, hope your Dad will be okay. Keeping you, your Dad and family in my prayers. Stay strong through this tough time. :)

@GroundB he's doing well so the good vibes must be reaching cheers mate (-:

@Stablish That's great to hear! x

Wishing your dad a speedy recovery and wishing you strength during the time ahead. May you and your Dad make many more happy memories together :)
