I was so excited to see this university and the town of Sheffield. I had some amazing times and some heartbreaking experiences there in those days. It was a journey I looked forward to.
WE HAVE ALL LOST OUR WAY
I think this is ruining us all. We can’t be upfront about our feelings without being judged. I see people smiling when they are truly hurting. I see people sitting with those who is hurting them all in the name of not being judged wrong or considered troublesome.
You know parasailing? Yes, that one. The one you floats in the air in a parachute while being towed by a speedboat. Not scary at all. Take it from me, it is so much fun. I went on it, and I am alive to tell you all about it.
How wrong was I? Totally, Albufeira is a photographer’s dream destination. It is so beautiful, I couldn’t stay in the room as I promised myself.
The heat was brutal and took me a while to work out a pattern of sticking to the room till around 7 pm when the sunlight is not so fierce.
GETTING OLDER IS A BLESSING!
Yeah, I know and I am grateful. Getting older is a blessing.
But, can I have my long hair back please?
We all talk about celebrating the little, how good it is for our mental health and how it makes us appreciate and practice gratitude more. That is exactly what I am doing here.
Have you ever come across that saying- What doesn’t kill you makes you stronger- have you heard it before? That saying is true. But that comes with a lot of fighting on your part, no two ways about it. You have to fight.
Self-care is absolutely great. It is one of the best things you can do to make yourself feel worthy. I mean prioritising yourself above everything else is not just healthy but liberating.
There are people that are so difficult to be around. They are either moaning or they know it all. Some people hang around to knock your confidence or they are just there to take, take, take and never give anything back in return. Isn’t it a shock to realise that this is possibly you?
There are people who have some seriously warped ideas of what kindness, support, loyalty, are. Once you refused to play along with their ideas of these things you are a fake person!
