We all know that our minds control our lives, our thoughts create our reality, and yet it took me a very long time to understand how key that information is. I used to say the words, believe the words, but I never actioned the words. I never grabbed those words by the throat, shook themContinueContinue reading “Within/Without”

Does the Law of Attraction Work?
The Law of Attraction is a more complex thing to understand than at first appears. It’s often sold simply as: decide what you want, ask for it, you get it. It was quite a while before a guy I follow, Mike Dooley (www.tut.com), added “visualise, show up, do something.” That’s the Law of Attraction plusContinueContinue reading “Does the Law of Attraction Work?”
Busy Doin’ Nothing
Perhaps a little more dynamic Just a quick blog to ensure that I maintain my daily posts, sneaking this in just before midnight. Hubby has had the day off today, haven’t done anything special, just mooched and lunch. He got himself a couple of much needed wardrobe update items. As a younger woman the veryContinueContinue reading “Busy Doin’ Nothing”
Not Always Anxiety
Photo by Pham Khoai on Pexels.com As a long-time sufferer of acute anxiety, over 40 years until I learned how to clear it, I have learned a lot about it, especially since it went. I personally found that anxiety made me feel like a fool, stupid for feeling the way I did, even though IContinueContinue reading “Not Always Anxiety”

Hope or Hopeless?
Photo by Pixabay on Pexels.com I put up two contradictory poems on love today, Not Lost Anymore, and Maelstrom. They’re both true. I’ve always wanted to write a book about the misconceptions we have about life when we’re younger, to give young people a heads up about the fairy-tales they will hear, and the voicesContinueContinue reading “Hope or Hopeless?”
The Trouble with Death
It’s about love Let me begin by saying that this isn’t going to be a grim or upsetting blog. I won’t be dwelling on bad memories, illness, or funerals. It’s a purely emotional blog but not a tear stained one. It’s difficult I decided to start with the patently obvious, but in truth this isn’tContinueContinue reading “The Trouble with Death”
Marketing Plan
Photo by MART PRODUCTION on Pexels.com I wrote this in 2012 when I was thinking about the work I wanted to do and how to present it. Often, when my ideas won’t fall into a semblance of order, I turn to poetry and just let the words flow onto the page. This was the result.ContinueContinue reading “Marketing Plan”
Just to help
What change, big or small, would you like your blog to make in the world? I used to suffer from terrible acute anxiety. I was born into a very messed up family, no abuse, but I’m still seeing the effects in my younger brother and until recently my cousin, to this day. I way toContinueContinue reading “Just to help”
Self-ish
Photo by itsmeseher on Pexels.com Another poem about the struggle to make a relationship work, and support each other without giving yourself entirely away, and ignoring your needs. Hopefully a meet in the middle poem. It’s unfashionable to be selfish Un-natural not to care more for others than yourself But you have needs and wishesContinueContinue reading “Self-ish”
