That is a sweet picture @BambiFawn from the Winnie the Pooh stories. It used to make me laugh so much as a child - Winnie the Pooh 😆😆😆😆😆 Silly innocent childhood fun.
I don’t think we laugh nearly as much as we should when we get older. I was walking in a park today and came across a group of people doing a laughing session. Very funny.
Even your name depicts the mother and child connection. My kids are my world.

Hi @soul and all reading;
My username comes from saying/writing "I hope..." many times since my breakdown. Hope's eternal so there's always hope for me.
My avatar's a happy colourful bee which represents my inner child and innocence; something torn from me early in life.
One of the reasons for becoming a member is to act out my silly side somewhere safe to 'remember' the 'me' that was lost all those years ago. And...I haven't been disappointed.
Thankyou...
Hope x

Wonderful positivity @Hope4me. Hope is so vital. Without it, we are swamped by despair.
Bees are amazing creatures. I admire their work ethic and what they produce. I'm sure you're as sweet as honey.

Agree @Former-Member - sometimes we can be critical of people’s behaviour but we are oblivious as to the reason why they may have acted that way.
I’m continually trying to figure out myself. Hopefully I’m getting closer each day.
