All good things don’t necessarily end, they change like the seasons…
“All good things” is a place for anyone with OR without chronic illness, debilitating illness, disability, or the carers for us to come and get away for 5 minutes to have a read and a piece of hope. Goodness can come out of hardship, and darkness can cloak itself for only so long until it bursts into the light.
Warmly,
Jonathan
“Hope is the last thing that dies. Maybe because hope is one of those dratted things that is truly, honestly, genuinely immortal.”

Crash
I sat in the passenger seat, laughing, recounting the crazy things my former students said to me as I returned to the school as a substitute teacher. Then there was a sound that took my breath away. Crunching. My chest lunged into the seatbelt and my head snapped forward; a roller coaster I never wanted to ride. “Oh God. Please don’t let this be how it ends.” My head snaps back into the headrest.
Celebrations
My phone holds “Speech Assistant,“ a Text to Speech Augmentative/Alternative Communication (AAC) app on my homescreen as well, which I have used time and again to speak for myself in times of celebration when the words in my heart would not make their way into the world.
