I’m in the high risk category. Are you?

I’ve been away for some time now, again not due to having nothing to write I really thought this piece would look at grief, as I suddenly lost a friend to cancer. Totally unprepared and unexpected. As far as we were all concerned she was fit and well. Young, healthy weight, non-smoker, and otherwise in …

I’m committed to me.

The hammer and chisel – a mere metaphor for the source of what you’re truly afraid to open your heart to. True vulnerability is the answer to all our fears, but how many of us are brave enough to explore it? Sometimes we must let go of what we are used to, what we think …

No such thing as compromise, only sacrifice.

***What are the things that have helped shape you, that are ‘frowned upon’ or ‘taboo’? *** ** What standards have you assumed on your life, as a result of examples you’ve seen or what you’ve been told/taught? ** When I say self-love, I think people automatically think I’m referring to my physical appearance (as let’s …

Ahhh!

Being brave, following my dreams, facing fears and jumping when its scariest. I've been taking the small steps that all seem to be adding up. Right now the feelings are mixed, I'm feeling proud about the few small decisions I've made over the last few weeks, but also like things are about to heat up …

5 steps forward…

... 0 steps back. Back, at the time of year where reflection is of prominence. It’s been the same every year, for as long as I can remember, those last couple of months, before my next birthday. My "trigger time" is usually the end of September/beginning of October, this is when I begin to scrutinise …

(pt1) Love is not black & White …

… It’s all colours of the spectrum Do you believe in love? Do you believe in being in love? Do you believe that there’s a difference between the two? How possible is it to fall in love with two people? To be in love with two people at the same time? Completely impossible would’ve been …

Going public, STILL keeps me accountable!

Once again I have taken this long pause in my writing, it’s my plan to try to touch base at least once a month, especially as there have been so many developments and plans around my life and views. The personal journey I’m on is taking me in so many directions, sometimes I feel so …

Happy New year?

I hear writing while the emotions are raw is the best time, I’m still trying to decide if this is the case, as it’s probably gonna be too raw to be public. I suppose I did say that 2017 would be the truest most transparent views of me- total vulnerability. I knew I wouldn’t wake up …

It’s been a while…

I’ve dropped off haven’t I? I knew this vulnerability thing would be a challenge when I started this to be honest! It’s just like, there’s so much to write, where do I start? I have so much put down, but how much information is too much information? Really starting to contemplate how realistic I was …

#blastfromthepast

I’ve been avoiding the 3rd piece, as this is when I told myself I’d officially allow people to start sharing the link. Of course I have things written, lol, just here trying to actively encourage myself to put them out there… this vulnerability ish is not that easy! Did I say I used to be …
