Thread: The goodness of people

Don't forget to let the rest of your (Landy) family know if we can help, even if it is just to listen

Mate, keep ya chin up a things will get better, it's taken me five years to get back to just even, the disco has been sitting for a couple of years in a shed, lost everything else so to speak of apart from my sense of humour and ability to work, one thing I found out was NOT to keep quiet, even for a chat as pop058 says just PM or shout on the forum..... never forget YOU ARE NOT ALONE when your on this forum and there is some great people here as well

It never ceases to amaze me when I read of acts such as shown to your goodself. I am sure that as time passes and you sort thru things you will never forget the kindness shown and will repay it as you have said.

I remember when I was a little nipper, our house burnt down and my parents lost everything (with no insurence) and the generousity shown to us was truely amazing, I still remember it to this day.

Some wise words spoken from the posters before me, and I hope for a better 2013 for you and your daughters.

Cheers Ean

Mate, that is a great story, shows there are people out there who care. You always hear the bad stories about people, never the good. Good luck, things will get better!! I tell you what, I don't know how old your girls are now, but when they grow up, they will always remember that you stuck by them and will love you for it!!!

Such a nice story to hear, always so warming to hear that people will always help others when they can

So sorry to hear of your troubles, sincerely hope things improve for you.
Hope you and your girls have a good day tomorrow as best you can.

My sincere thanks to all above and all who thanked the post.

Our day would have been better with a Christmas miracle. Mum didn't come back to us.
But it was a great day none the less. My girls were overwhelmed with the volume of pressies under the tree. There were even some scratchies thrown in for me. I'm now $4 richer myself.

After breakfast with all the neighbours we then left to spend the day with my wife's extended family. Very unusual being together with a load of family but not being with the person responsible for getting us together.

I'm still hoping for the miracle. Apparently my wife spent the day alone and then at work. Surely being with horrible old me must be better than spending Christmas alone.

People often tell me not to worry, things will sort themselves out.
In a way they were right
Through the generosity of near strangers and the love of family we've had an amazing Christmas.

Thanks to all
Kenley

Mate, as one who went through the same thing 3 years ago, it will get better.

There's some great people around, on here and on the outside. As Pop said, never be afraid to talk about it.

Glad Xmas turned out well for you and your girls.
