That moment when you realise things are looking up. It’s a breath of fresh air, a feeling that you may rarely come across in life. Capture it and don’t forget how far you have come. This is how I’m starting to feel right now.  It’s been a long rocky road. Ups and downs along the […]

So it was my 25th birthday. I thought about how many years I had wasted over thinking about things that don’t matter too much in life. Mostly self image related and comparing myself to others. When the time spent on doing that could be used much more wisely. I could have lived more, experienced more, […]

Happy new year.. sorry it’s late! I thought it would be silly to abandon my blog as I’ve received so much support and feedback from it. It’s been great the response I’ve had from it all. So to update you, I was taken off the liver transplant list in December as they had felt I […]

I’ve never be sure about festivals bcause I don’t think I’d cope with the lack of daily luxuries, such as warm showers, clean toilets and a warm comfortable bed. This year I’m feeling more inclined to go but I best […]

Summer is here! We all wait for it all year,  the season comes but ends so quickly. It automatically improves moods, urges to have barbecues commence and the famous ‘beer garden weather’ saying is mentioned most weekends.
