Best Birthday So Far

I was going to share pictures from my last birthday, but left it later and later until it was too late. I was going to describe it as 'the best birthday so far'. At least it was in principle but in practice I was so plagued with OCD it was exhausting. My friends went all-out … Continue reading Best Birthday So Far →

Silent Thoughts

I hope that, one dayWe can have a friendship uninterruptedBy impossible circumstancesIt's definitely possible; But until then, there are other prioritiesAnd I'm here for thatWhatever it takes. 🌪

Humbling

People can inspire and humble,Amidst the most desperate of situations,When you give the time to understand them,And share their experience; It is always worth it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5OJMOTe56tE 🌪

Escape Is Possible

We are nearly there,And she's being so brave and strong,Finding strength beyond her own expectation; The plan has been ethereal,Shifting, changing, going in and out of focus,But…the one constant remains—Her determination to leave; She's digging really deep as obstacles arise,As the situation becomes more urgent,But she has strength to match,It's an honour to witness. 🌪

Tried And True; Thank you! 💙

It's so amazing,To have for the first time, A network of people,Whom are on my side; Regular encouragement,And benefit of a doubt,True emotional acknowledgement,Of all that I've been through; Genuine interest,In what I do,And genuine empathy,For how I am; It's all brand new,In this brave new world, It's all brand new,Yet tried and true. 🌪

Digging Digging

Digging away,For my mental health, Digging up beds,Over at Green Health, Unleashing my aggression,Burning off the rage, Finally, some exertion,Fresh air, and sun!! 😄 (Headphones hair) 🌪
