I am most certainly an all in kind of person. I have always been more selfless than selfish. You need some company? I’m there, even if I’m miles away. Need an arm or a leg? Which one? I’ve got two of each! Being all in is a big part of my personality and I amContinue reading “The Curse of Being ‘All In’”

Indulge in Nothingness.
My world is loud. Too loud sometimes. Both externally and internally, and it often gets too much. Being busy every day creates a very loud world: The hustle and bustle of people, and music while I shop. Screaming children, cages and pallets rolling by, and callouts being shouted over the tannoy while I’m at work.Continue reading “Indulge in Nothingness.”
Life With No Plans
If there’s one thing I love in life, it’s a plan. Whether it’s what my day looks like, a coffee date with a friend on my calendar, or a life plan, like to have children or get married. Plans help me feel as if I have some kind of control in my life, but whatContinue reading “Life With No Plans”
Be Who You Need
“Be the person you needed when you were younger.” It’s a powerful quote I see float around on the internet quite often; a quote I once found empowering.

You Are The Process
Most nights I dream. Often, I have multiple dreams and my poor boyfriend hears all about them the next morning. I even downloaded an app to keep a track of them all as they’re usually pretty bizarre; it makes you wonder where in the depths of your brain these mini, night time, movies come from!Continue reading “You Are The Process”
My New Life

If This Is Happiness…
Over the last week I’ve felt like a different person, like a switch has been flicked and I’ve been able to do things, go places and enjoy life. I’ve felt happy. Now, I know all of us here know I’m depressed. I near enough write about it every week! (And yet you keep coming backContinue reading “If This Is Happiness…”
Back To a Happy Place
There was a lot of things I missed during lockdown. I missed seeing my family and having the hugs I desperately needed. I missed meeting up with my friends for a coffee and a catch up. I even missed going to work, and wandering around a supermarket when I was in my twelve weeks ofContinue reading “Back To a Happy Place”
It’s Time To Turn The Volume Down.
“How am I going to get my plants to the car without looking like an idiot that’s being viciously attacked by two plants?” I always worry about the silliest of things. I had fallen in love with a faux cheese plant at work, but they were far too expensive and I couldn’t justify buying one,Continue reading “It’s Time To Turn The Volume Down.”
