Life continues to surprise me

 Hi all, I don’t know if anyone still reads this blog but it’s a platform that I created not to be read but to be written.  Life threw a curveball at me this year, a horrible and nasty curveball. I was hit by a car and I’m now recovering from concussion, a head wound and the trauma of the experience. I was feeling quite optimistic about things before the accident, I had just started a new role, me and my boyfriend had decided to move in together next year. A few things to be excited about.  The accident was on the 19th June and this was only a month into my new role which has well and truly made me feel awful. It’s not my fault that I was in an accident but I always feel guilt when I cannot fulfil my duties. I don’t think the guilt stems from letting people down although I do have a sense of that feeling whenever I’m off sick but I think it’s because I need to keep a job. I am not in a position where I can be unemployed and I think that’s where the sense of guilt comes fr...

What I have said still matters

It’s been a very long time since I have needed this blog, it was my solace and my safe space for a long time.  Sure I have still written a couple posts that were not written as a coping mechanism for the generalised anxiety disorder but I think it’s beautiful that you still value my writing even after a long hiatus.  I still read and write and I think writing will always be my way of expressing myself no matter what I feel or go through in this life of mine.  I may not be using this blog so much as an outlet anymore but I do hope what I have written is helpful in some small way to you readers.  I’d like to thank you for still being around and would love further support through my new way of writing.  I told you last year I was now a published author and wow is that still surreal.  What I would also like to share is my newest short story which I hope you decide to read.  Let’s also hope you enjoy reading it as much as I enjoyed writing it.  https:/...

Interpretation

I  feel enriched in so many ways when reading. I do find myself lately only interested in reading fiction that actually teaches me about people and how they feel. Fiction is super relatable but even when I cannot relate specifically, it helps me to understand more about myself and others in so many ways. When I tell this to people, sometimes they don’t understand how fiction can have this effect. I suppose it’s all down to interpretation.   BCL says 

I love, love

Just on my way out and throughout my journey I have seen so many couples and families around me and I just get that warm fuzzy feeling. I love, love. I love seeing it. Keep it up beautiful world.  BCL says 

Small wins

Small wins are big wins in life depending on your perspective. I touched my toes for the first time tonight doing yoga. This literally has made my day. SUPER PROUD. BCL says

Green

This morning a thought popped into my head on the colour green. It popped into my head whilst I was walking past beautiful greenery and I never thought about this before. I say one of my favourite colours is green and I can’t help but believe this could be because green is the colour of nature and nature brings me joy and peace.   BCL says

Empathy

Being an empath is super hard but on the other side of things I’m so grateful. That intense empathy I feel invades my whole life, I feel the intensity with every aspect of it. I feel as if knowing yourself so rawly is scary but also rewarding. There’s a certain contentment with understanding yourself and others. Everyone you cross paths with and their emotions impact you and you learn things about yourself without even realising it.   BCL says
