Accumulate.
They say you have to speculate to accumulate don’t they. I have always wondered exactly what they mean . I assume that,that means you need to take chances with, life,relationships and money to improve your lot!
When I look back on my life I am not sure quite what I have accumulated over the years?A lot of trouble and strife and rubbish in the attic.
There’s been lots of happy times too but personally I don’t think they out weigh the hassle.
My life’s accumulation of memories are not altogether happy but there is no point in moaning so instead I smile.
Who knows my accumulation of life might improve! Well here is hoping! ,😊😋😎😉☺🤗😇🙂

Female, wife, full time mother and Grandmother. I am not as happy go lucky as I used to be but I am still bubbling along on simmer! I have three handsome sons all grown and flown.The youngest married with a beautiful wife and two sons of his own. Back in 2010 I was working, running a home, driving and socializing then bang in a split second all that was gone. I had an accident at home. I broke my back, not for the first time, I had broken it 10 years previously as well. Unfortunately this time I had broken it really badly and it was truly messed up so I had to have two operations. I was told before each operation that the outcome could mean I spend the rest of my life in a wheelchair. Still as some guy once wrote "I am still standing " yes "better than I ever was " I no longer use the walking stick . I had lots of friends before the accident but when things like this happen, you loose most of them. Their lives move on and mine stood still and so they left me behind ...I know that is just the way life is but it hurt and always will. Then I looked around and saw those who were still there for me, these friends are the roses in my garden they need to be tended well. They are the diamonds in the dust. I will of been married 53yrs this comming year. I have found different ways to approach life, use my pain befriend it almost...yer right , well that is what they tell me at the pain clinic ROFLMAO ...... if only I could! I have found an outlet for my fears, frustrations and night terrors . I have started writing poetry if that name can be applied to my writing. I hope I do not come over as a moaning winger. I hope I am past all that. I also hope that you might see how the poetry is moving from very dark through the grey and hopefully in to light.
My back is no longer straight it is C shaped because of the injury and I have lost two and a half inches in height but my Pilates and Core teachers have helped me to stand up as straight and be as strong as possible. Pain and depression are still hanging on my arm but I have weapons to use against them and if I say so myself I cope well.
I have made lots of new friends, real diamonds. I am also very grateful for all the support and help I have encountered here on Wordpress. Hugs and welcome to everyone who visits.

Always here! I told you 😚😚
You are a good person Willow – kind and caring and giving – and I will tell you that it is not possible to see the positive impact you have had upon the world. For instance you trusted and opened up your blog to allow me to guest when I had never done it before. It has been with your encouragement that I have found the strength to write. I have never thanked you for that and I am now. Just think about how many others you have helped as well. You have accumulated much Willow for your treasures are laid up in heaven.
Thank you Paul I am so glad to have helped you it is really a pleasure to helped you. You are always so kind and supportive you always lift my spirits and for that, thank you! xxxx

As an aside Willow, I did a guest post over at Mark Bialczak’s .https://markbialczak.com/2016/09/04/im-sorry/ I would be honored if you had the time to drop by for read and comment. Thank you.
I shall endeavour to visit Paul!
You know when we think we’ve got a load of trash, we forget that there are possibly nuggets of treasure hidden in them and you’ve got accumulated nuggets of wisdom to offer.
Yes I do realise that, just needed a rethink!
