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

I love the way you laugh out loud The way you make me smile The way you're not afraid to hold my hand, if only for a while I love the way you look at me And the way you always care The way you look me in the eyes And sometimes even stare I love the way you give me hugs That sometimes last forever But think you should believe in yourself more, because you are actually really clever. I love the way you understand me completely, And even though it sounds really cheesy, the way you complete 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.

December : old habits die hard:

Old habits die hard, So roll a dice , and lay down a card And neck your drink, pour a shot, drink until alls forgot. 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.
