I'm concerned by my numbers They're not adding up good Yet when I started to write I didn't need numbers To know where I stood
Now I need all the numbers I can get on my stats Or my mood as a writer Gets ever so flat And I worry I'm boring And worry I'm bland Or is there a secret I don't understand
I know that a writer Just has to appeal And should pursue that appealing With powerful zeal But there are millions of people All different - unique And it just does my head in Trying to speak To all those free minds Individual hopes I don't know if they're happy Or trying to cope
Do they want a giggle? Do they want a hug? Do they want some advice On how to live life? Or something more useful - where to buy a new rug?
Are they bored with their chocolate? (Now there I can help) Are they struggling to decide Between spinach and kelp? Are they seeking adventure Or a small quiet space? Do they want to be 'out there' Or stay in and stay safe?
If I don't get this right Then my numbers will fall Which would really upset me And results in a call To think more about figures And less about words Which for a girl who’s a writer Is frankly absurd
However I'm thinking That when I started out No one was reading A word I put out So the fact I have readers Means progress is great
So I'll stick with the words And leave the numbers to fate
I'm a writer, public speaker, medium, and spiritual thinker. I suffered from acute anxiety from the age of 16 until I was well into my 50s, when I finally found methods that helped me to put it behind me. My struggles led to me exploring life through poetry, then plays, and over a 15 year period I made notes for a self help book which I published in 2015. Details on the book page. Although I am a psychic medium and loved the work, it didn’t feel right for me. It was an utter privilege, but my path was the exploration of what it means to be spirit in the real world and how we can make practical use of those abilities. Nowadays I write, blog, and teach soul-centred living, which is a gentle way of undoing past programming and connecting to your essential self, or soul. If you’re interested email me and we can chat. No pressure, it’s right for you or it’s not and you will know. The groups meet on line so no going out on cold, wet, winter’s evenings. On a personal note, I’m based in the UK. Married with five cats, no children, and four grandchildren, thanks to our inherited daughter, who has gifted us four beautiful little people that bring us such joy. Hope you enjoy the blogs. Deb xx
