Trying to ‘live’ again…

Trying to ‘live’ again…

It’s been ‘a minute’, since I was just plodding along in life, working way too hard, and fitting in lots of social stuff with friends in-between. Looking back, I don’t know how I did it all, but I did! Of course I was always kinda tired, but assumed that everyone felt that way, so I just needed to ‘crack on’ with it! I have fought mental health stuff, for as long as I can remember, and I guess after a while I just assumed that this is how it’s supposed to be and I guess got accustomed to it.

But, it wasn’t until a couple of years ago, I realised that mental health crisis’ can be life threatening.. and I think we know where I’m going with that one! It was a horrible time, in which I know has changed me somewhat. As, I have seen the horrible side of humans, I’ve seen the selfishness and damn right nastiness that can be projected onto innocent bystanders, and I’ve seen first hand how freely people can hurt others for no reason other than to make themselves ‘look big’ (but not clever)!

So, after a lengthy amount of time, living in what I can only describe as hell… here I am now. With this ‘fresh start’ I didn’t even plan for. Yet, I know already that this was for the best as I would’ve lived the same boring, predictable life forever. And a lesson from that is just because something feels/is familiar to you, doesn’t mean that it is actually the right thing for you!

The one thing I know for sure is that I have this opportunity to actually ‘live’ – opposed to simply existing like I was before. But, currently I feel somewhat stuck, as I don’t even know where to start! All I know is, that I’m going to fully immerse myself in what ever opportunities come my way and give life a proper try!

Until next time,
