A little bit about moi:
I am a mom, a nana, a sister, a woman, a friend, a human being…a youth counsellor, Family Life Educator.
I have been working in the helping profession for over 25 years and volunteered in various capacities from youths to seniors.
Tournesol is my nom de plume for haiku and other Japanese form poetry here at Tournesoldansunjardin https://cheryllynnroberts.wordpress.com I hope you enjoy reading through my daily waka.
I also have another blog "Stop the Stigma" where I may stand on my soapbox now and then and hope it will become a place to drop in and share or comment on issues important to you. In that vein this could be a great way to learn from each other.

It is those who we least pay attention to who should inspire us for the reality of hope in their constant efforts to keep going. Beautifully done there!

thank you so much…I’ve learned so much about “hanging on” from many who suffer so much more.

I noticed a spider this summer doing this over and over and over …it just astounds me.

They are very tenacious about their webs that for sure … but their life also depends on that web.

True…makes sense.

Makes me rethink desperation–that for some it apparently grows more hope, for others only more despair.
