Jul 8th, 2012 9:19:50pm Since I was deemed “officially a lady” and “too old to be mucking about outside” a few years ago, I’ve been limited in what I can and can not do, and how often I can do them. I went from being outdoors everyday jumping around, playing sports and even just making … Continue reading “Don’t Over-think, Just Do.”

I Am Lost Tonight.
May 4th, 2012 3:48:00am This is my light. This blog is where I post of hope, of strength, of one-day freedom and the lessons learned in between it all. This is where I write my way to the truth within me. Yet tonight’s truth is that I am weary. Emotionally, as well as physically. And … Continue reading I Am Lost Tonight.
To the Truth
Mar 10th, 2012 12:18:00pm I shut people out. Simple present, not past. It’s not something I had been doing in the time that I have been missing from this place, it’s what I do. I shut people out. I have built walls so high that the terms “expressionless” and “uncaring” are often used in conjunction … Continue reading To the Truth
‘Work Is Worship’
Sep 6th, 2011 2:47:00am I wrote a poem of that title, a long time ago. I wrote it is a reminder to myself during a time long ago where my heart was weakened by events that rendered it bruised and sore. I felt the best way to get through the pain would be to bury … Continue reading ‘Work Is Worship’
The Future Is Bright
Apr 15th, 2011 4:34:00pm I am officially in my last year of high school. Then A-levels (which is considered as college) then university. Just yesterday, it was my first day in first grade, and I was silently crying because my bag’s zipper broke and I didn’t know how to get my books out, scared I’d … Continue reading The Future Is Bright
The Wisdom of Youth
Jul 18th, 2010 12:43:00am When I was 11, I wrote a story. The plot and writing were quite terrible, really, but back then it was my pride and joy. A plain single-lined notebook was its home, in my best handwriting at the time, and a little picture was carefully drawn at the end of each … Continue reading The Wisdom of Youth
Desire to Be
Feb 22nd, 2010 3:19:00am In slightly less than twenty four hours, I have finished two books by the same author: Paulo Coelho’s Like the Flowing River and Veronika Decides to Die. After first reading The Alchemist, I had become a great fan of his writing, because I felt it spoke to me in a way … Continue reading Desire to Be
“You’ve Changed.”
Nov 19th, 2009 10:49:00pm I can not tell you how many times I have heard those words uttered to me these past few months. And every time, I ask how I have been altered. And every time, they do not have an answer, except for the fact that I am different than I was before. … Continue reading “You’ve Changed.”
On Hard Work
28 July, 2016, 10:25 PM Sometimes I'm terrified that I'm more in love with the idea of hard work than hard work itself. I like making plans and planning routines. I like the fresh beginnings and I like the idea of having reached the end. The middle, though... That's the part I'm not too keen … Continue reading On Hard Work
Before the rain
My god. This is beautiful. The sky is at breaking point with the weight of those beautiful ominous grey clouds. They’re lurking over us, and I can just tell they’re smirking as they wait for the right moment to let loose. Hanging onto our anticipation, feeding off the tension of the Earth as she waits for her thirst, and that of all she has borne, to be quenched. The … Continue reading Before the rain
