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 things

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.

Results Day

Today is results day... Today is the day where I discover my long-awaited fate. Am I going to fail and regret every decision I’ve ever made? or am I going to pass , in which case I’m destined to be okay, or at least that’s what people say.   That’s on the condition that I go on to do well at the next stage Yet why must my life be a continuous series of tests and games? I’ve been absolutely dreading this day,   I can feel my heart beating out of my chest just pleading for this moment to go away.   Knowing that people are going to ask me what I’ve got is something I cannot face.   The pressure to do well hangs over me like a dead weight. What will people say? What if I’m the only one who fails and everyone else does great? It seems that we’re put under so much pressure at a young age   Expected to know what we want to do with our lives, make the right choices, get the best grades.   And expected to somehow, come out of it all okay. We’...

BLIND

I don't hate you, Because I still love you. I can't look at you, Because it hurts to. We don't talk, Because there is nothing left to say. You apologized, but I still walked away. I'm leaving you and the thought of you behind, Because I just need to clear my mind. I'm angered because you wasted my time, Hurt because I believed you were mine, But I just didn't see the signs. I guess that's why they say love is blind,

September: For my friends

I looked for inspiration for this online, researched poems about friendship, looked at ones that rhymed. You see, I wanted this to be good, I wanted this one to matter. These words I wish you to read, After seeing your faces, hearing your laughter and chatter. It’s been months since we’ve all been together, And I didn’t know how It would be, would it be awkward,stilted,would the experience be crappy? But I don’t know what I was worried about , we all fit together as one, tonight was nothing but warm ,sparkling and fun.
