Inspiration post – Women
Today, I ran my first Womens group – WISE (Women Inspire Self Empowerment). Being the first meeting, I wasn’t sure what to expect. However, I am pleased with the outcome. It was a small gathering, only 8 of us, but it was informative, close and we shared many things about ourselves. I wanted to start…

Inspirational post – Anger
I am angry. A lot. I have no idea why normally, sometimes I am aware, but mostly, I just feel an incredible anger at everything. Yet, I don’t feel I have the right too. Nothing in my life is that terrible that I have a right to be angry. So, I struggle with this emotion.…

Inspiration post – I’m struggling
At the moment, I am struggling. Struggling to talk to anyone about how I am feeling. I am keeping it all hidden and wrapped up inside because to me, that’s safe. I feel that if I let anything out, those feelings will come alive and I am scared to face how I really feel about…

Inspiration post – Dealing with Grief
I work in a hospital. I am regularly faced with confronting situations, death of children, adults and relatives coming to terms with this grief. Over the last 10 years I have been witness to six children die. I didn’t think this had much of a long-term effect on me. I felt that I dealt with…

Inspiration Post – Life, pure and simple
My life is the inspiration behind all my work. During tough times, I found I couldn’t journal so I turned to writing as a way of getting things out. It helped and I continued to do it, never expecting anything to come of it. Starting a webpage or a blog was never my intention, after…

Inspiration post – other people’s work
Finding inspiration in others’ work is great. I have started reading all sorts of peoples’ work online in all sorts of formats. I find listening to spoken words is really encouraging and listening to the way people speak their poetry can be inspiring. Learning new words from people can change the way you write your…

Inspiration post – New Year’s Resolutions
I’m not one for making New Year’s resolutions. I see them as a waste of time and setting yourself up to fail by putting unreasonable expectations on yourself. My husband and I truly believe that if you want to make changes to yourself then you shouldn’t have to wait until the first day of a…

Inspiration post – The Sound of Music
I LOVE music. I have to have it playing everywhere. It sets my mood and can change my mood in every way. All different types of music, in any setting. In my car, it has to be as loud as possible, and I either sing along at the top of my voice or listen and…
