People, life in general. Sometimes life sucks, but mostly I think life is beautiful. I believe that people have their own big part to make it beautiful. Working at home care gives me a boost and fills my heart with joy, laughter, sadness, hope and love.

Anything that will bring me up in space and makes me forget the time. I love the books of Colin Forbes!!! Mary Stewart is great too. I love thrillers more than the romantic ones :) The books of Alistair Maclean. The Poldark books, Angelique books, North and South books.
Heroes:
31-5-2007. This is a tough one. There are actually heroes in my book, but I never came up with it, I guess because I have been living with two of those heroes for such a long time. And today it finally did hit me because of a conversation that I had with someone. Someone who has experienced what I have written down here now.
What about the MENTALLY/PHYSICALLY/SEXUALLY ABUSED CHILDREN!!! For they have never known love by their parents and are forever damaged, living with the scars. Forever fighting their past that comes up in every unexpected period in life. SURVIVING is all they have learned and will continue that for the rest of their lives. Fighting forever for love, fighting forever for intimacy and afraid to let them loved and giving love. Fighting forever for getting trust and for giving trust. For never feeling really free.
I have learned so much from them, have such a huge respect, feel so much love for them. Because what we do/feel automatically because our own parents learned/gave that to us, the abused children really have to fight for it and using their energy twice as what we use for energy. Once they have grown up, they still pay for what is done to them, FOR THEIR WHOLE LIVES, BECAUSE THEY NEVER KNEW A LOVING AND STABLE CHILDHOOD!!! They are heroes because they have to fight from nothing to getting and being someone loving!!! Hugs and kisses for those people.
