Who are the biggest influences in your life?

Hello my friend

Firstly I send from me to you Seasons Greetings and may the New Year bring you Peace, Hope & Security, in whatever form that may take.

Now the biggest influences in my life have been;

1. My wonderful step-dad
2. The twins at St Claire’s, and all of Enid Blytons books. She brought me through my childhood.
3. A wonderful lady who lived down a woodland track near Dads farm. She was the most amazing teacher of life, baking, gardening and nature.
4. Mitch Album, author of Five People you Meet in Heaven. That book changed my thinking .

Two people that were actually in my life and two authors, amazing when I stop to think of all the people that I have come in contact with in my 58 years and those are the only ones I can say have really influenced me.

I am lucky to have had My Dad he was the most amazing lovely kind man.

As for the lady in the wood she was a beautiful soul, who I could tell all my troubles to. As was the custom when I grew up, adults were always Mr & Mrs, this lady became known as Auntie Babs to me. I guess she adopted me into her life.

Looking at this I can see how blessed I have been

Take care
