A conversation with a friend

Firstly, Happy New Year to all of my readers!

A friend of mine at work asked me a question today, it was along the lines of: 'will I ever be loved by someone else as much as I love them'. Now, before my current relationship I was in a 5 year relationship where I fell out of love with my partner. Even though it was my decision to end it, I still asked myself the same question, 'will anyone love me like he did?' The answer to that question was and is YES.

I know some people may sit there and read this and think, that's easy for you to say but you're not me or something else similar. The thing is, relationships are all the same in the sense that you fall in love, you sometimes love forever and sometimes you fall out of love. This is the same for every person in the entire world, the difference being that the relationship you have with your partner will be different to someone else's.

I have proved myself wrong as I fell in love with someone else pretty soon after my previous relationship. The point I am trying to make here is this, love a lot but do not live for anything other than the present. When you break up with someone who you spoke about marrying or having kids with, you feel like you have lost a lot more than just the partner when it ends. You feel like you've also lost that marriage, those kids, when you never really had them.

No one will only love one person in their lifetime and really if you think about it it's actually kind of silly to think that if you broke up with someone, you would never find someone else. There are millions of people in the world and some of those people will also love you like a previous partner did.

Final thought, love for now and enjoy what you have in the present. Love is inevitable and there are multiple people out there for everyone.

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

How people see you

Morning, I’ll get right to it.  So, I was in the middle of a conversation with a work colleague today and another colleague joined in and I reacted to something they said. For some odd reason this made me think about how people see me. I can’t see how I look to others, my body language, my facial expressions, I’m blind to how I look to other people. I’m not sure how I feel about this, I mean I would really like to know how I look to other people.  Have you ever thought this too or is this just how my mind works? I bet you’re thinking about it now though right?  BCL says 

Mental Health during lockdown

I never thought I would be able to say my mental health is in a good place, especially during a pandemic and a lockdown. Of course I have some days where I'm feeling a little down, but this is more due to boredom. I am fine, I sleep well, I can enjoy my day, every day for the most part (sometimes it can be a drag). I am so incredibly proud of my mental state and how I feel about myself at the moment. This post isn't to boast, I know there are people out there who have been through a horrid time during this pandemic and the lockdown, it's just gratitude for myself.  Having the cats, still having a job, having friends and family whom I can go through this hard time with does help massively, but being in a healthy mindset and having a good frame of mind, is most definitely the icing on top of the cake. I have a clear mind and clear (almost) emotions, I am so very, very, very grateful and again proud of myself. This means I win, GAD (Generalized Anxiety Disorder) loses.  I hope...
