Can’t we skip back to the 90’s for some gentle escapism ? Maybe in the form of a little Sex & the city life romance.

Surely there is still a place for written inspo? I know I sound old when I say social media has taken over and for the most part I have signed up to it too and (disclaimer) I do find many benefits.

There is just something deep down that still hankers for the simplicity again. I do crave some time out but is my brain being reprogrammed in the doom of the scroll?

I don’t mind admitting that I enjoy observing behaviours online and have certainly recognised parts of myself that once happily played a “role”

I prefer to use social media now in the hope of aligned opportunity & light entertainment- it just doesn’t need to be my entire personality perhaps?

I used to blog – many years ago and I forgot that typing is a wonderful creative outlet.

I think some of us could be getting pulled into the vortex of technology under the pretence that we just want to share “little bits of life” but in truth we are ultimately hoping to crack the internet and grab a little fame just like the characters we tune in to watch ?

You might not wish to admit that but I can certainly unpack my own thoughts here and hold my hands up for you! It can be our secret.

What you will find in my blogs is honesty – break downs of a 45 year old mind and a woman that has started again more times than your favourite movie.

Does that make me a failure – I prefer to consider that each time I restart I move a bit differently and potentially with a little more savvy.

2024 humbled me royally (we can get into that another day) but in that humbling came a lot of positive change and those parts I feel a NEED to share.

We can’t all just be here to tick the boxes and serve our time – surely some of us must be here to create – in ways that help those who don’t feel quite so comfortable in those systems.

You do fit.

We just need to find the right boxes. (Mine typically contain shoes ) I haven’t got the mind to unpack that today.

Let’s chat again soon. I’m off to watch The holiday on repeat & procrastinate over dating sites! Take from that what you will.
