15 Things I am grateful for:

05/09/2017

Today I woke up and I felt good, really happy, in fact.
This kind of fulfilling happiness is so rare these days that it took me completely by surprise.
This is not to say that I am unhappy everyday.
But just that usually, even when I’m having “fun” , I am usually still  slightly anxious , sad , or distracted.
I am hardly ever enveloped in an unconditional happiness and having an appreciation for life.
So today’s post (for once ) , is a happy one.

On the way to the Harry Potter studio’s I took the time to reflect on all the things I am thankful and happy about.
Then , maybe on bad days , you guys, just like me can remember just how good we already have thingsJ

So , 15 things I am thankful for .....
 
1.     My Health
2.    My loving parents and the rest of my family
3.    Having money ,financial security and a home
4.    Having a group of (mostly great ) friends
5.    Having had an Education
6.    Feeling safe and secure
7.    Being able to drink clean water and not worry about having enough to eat.
8.    Being able to read all the books I want.
9.    Art ( all of the different types)
10.   Being able to watch film and TV programs.
11.    Freedom of Speech
12.   Electricity and plumbing  
13.   Music
14.   Being able to hear , see , communicate , touch and think.
15.   Being able to type this in a car on the way to the Harry Potter studio tour with my mum sat next to me.

September: what am I doing

When people ask you “what are you doing with your life?” You say .. “umm, I’m just going with the flow” Which is basically code for.. “yeah, I don’t really know”. You’re supposed to have everything figured out right?  You’re supposed to just know who you are? But you can’t help but look around and think mate,  I don’t even know where to start. You go from being a carefree child,  to a life full of responsibility, Decisions now have consequences and you’re sat there, questioning your abilitys. You’re expected to have a five year plan - house, kids, car, Yet you’re still standing at the starting pointing feeling like you’re not going to make it very far.

Could grab my fags light em up or add some ket into my cup Might as well get all the drugs because any will do numb my pain For an hour or two. I’ll grab the takeaway, Stuff my gob More and more that’ll do the job.

Dear readers...

It’s been so long since my fingers stretched and yearned for the gentle clicking of the keyboard. Now I have chosen to be back online, with my thoughts unwinding onto the internet, trying to find a home in my own corner of the internet. When I first decided to post on here I was searching for an outlet for my mental health issues -a way of finding closure on my past. I wanted a way of telling people how I felt without having to actually tell them. U ltimately, this blog helped me understand myself and work out where I wanted to go  next,  whilst developing my own passion for writing. So , reaching the end of 2018 I have added some of my writings from this year in the hopes it means something to someone one.   Hope you have had a good year x
