Stars

Star gazing – it is a beautiful past time. It’s hard to believe something can be so beautiful yet so far away … and when you get up close to an actual star their appearance is completely different

I like to think we are stars

Each one of us is unique and although you think certain things about each one of us – once looking up close you notice something completely different

Another thing that I notice while star gazing is the number

Sometimes there are very few stars out while at other times there are way too many to count

In life I truly think you go through periods – one: being alone (but not completely) and two: with your love (of many shapes and forms)

You also seem to get less or more opportunities in life depending on the people you know

If you know few then you tend to get less events available to you but if you know numerous amounts of people, more events seem to appear

That’s another thing about star gazing and life – they are both unpredictable (for the most part)

Shooting stars are always a surprising bonus when looks at the night sky – it allows you to make a wish of another surprising bonus to occur in the day light

They are magical in their own way just as we have a little magic in us too

I like to think we are stars – a magical wonderment that allows for brightness while the rest of the world is dark

It's all about perspective

I found myself earlier reflecting on yesterday - was it a bad day, or was it a good day? I don't usually label my days as bad or good, to be clear, but yesterday wasn't a regular day. Niagara Falls, Ontario The short of it: I had an anxiety attack, in the rain, in downtown London, on the way to an event with my partner who had yet to witness an attack. The works - tears, hyperventilation, nervous energy and jitters. But to truly elaborate the perspective bit, there is a longer story to it.  I think it's important to add context, to shape why it was a matter of a bad day vs good day. So here we go.

Moving Forward

New year, new goals. For so many of us, our goals or 'resolutions' created every new year quickly dissipate.  I'm not sure if it lack of focus, lack of time, lack of determination or simply slacking.  It doesn't truly matter why so many of us cannot follow through on our goals, at least that isn't my point.  My point is that many of us enter every new year with a new goal, a new outlook...striving for improvement, for change. And for once, I'm excited. I'm not going to rehash my 2012 year for you- it was the standard ups and downs and you all can relate in your own way.  Rather I want to focus on the future.  One of my biggest goals is to conquer my anxiety and kick it to the curb.  I am so tired of it controlling many aspects of my life.  I want to live again.  I want to stop the doubt, the fear, the uncertainty, and the worrying.  The past 4 and a half months have been eye opening for me, and I feel like I've already come so far.  I...

Consistently Inconsistent

 I've certainly proven that I'm unable to regularly journal or blog. That I'm pulled to write when things are bad or awry or beyond my control, but rarely in a time where I feel joy, happiness or am at peace with things. We all know I'm here, journaling again, because I'm in my head. Feeling. Reflecting. Likely overthinking. As to be expected - consistently inconsistent.  I've been pushing myself for months now. Focusing on doing more, achieving more, earning more, finding more....always more . And I am so t i r e d. Somewhere along the way of trying to redefine myself and achieve goals I had set for myself, I lost sight of why I was doing things. What was motivating me. Why I set these goals.
