Approximate reading time: 7 min Written on 22nd February 2021 But for you I woke up this morning, a hint of summer in the air. Feeling frozen as I looked, out the window and stared. You were in my dream; it was your birthday. I came to give you a hug, you turned and walked …

Childless by Chance
Written 17th March 2021 Grief like love Takes on many forms Yet we live in a world That so often ignores… “Be positive Don’t look back always uplift You, alone have the power to make the mental mind shift” But so many griefs Are engraved in our souls A child losing a parent Will always …
Jealousy
Approximate reading time: 5 min You see this is why I could never be a professional writer….. my inability to follow through and finish the bloody assignment would mean I would undoubtably be fired in roughly 3 weeks. I can almost hear the editor now: Oh, you mean the one on the Anxious Avoidant style? …
Let it be
Approximate reading time: 3 min 16th February 2021 Another beautiful day, sitting quietly on my own. Painting random pictures to accompany all my poems. Listening to hours of transcripts (therapy sessions with Gabor) So much this man teaches just resonates to my core. The doorbell rings, a surprise delivery for me? are those Blooms Flowers …
Liberty
Written 7th June 2022 Blue eyed angel Replica of a girl Blonde, shiny hair soft gorgeous curls A deadpan look so hard to reconcile Why someone so young is unable to smile? Like a doll, a mannequin you intensely stare I wonder my sweetheart what’s going on in there? As you float around the class …

For the love of Melancholy
(Approximate reading time: 5 min) It has been an interesting week. I feel like I have been flying sky high on the fumes of a) My attachment studies (which I am loving!) b) The fact that I am blogging regularly (Wohooo – Yayee meee!!!) c) And that 13 days ago I finally found a tenant …
Flipsides of a coin
(Approximate reading time: 8 min) Dam, this back-blogging is difficult;-) I kind of see why people so often ‘sanitize’ their stories and leave out the yucky, dark parts of it, because when you are feeling happy and sunny….. it’s sometimes the LAST thing you want to go back to. At the moment, I feel a …
A day of contrast
I just have to say, today was AMAZING!! I had my first day of online lectures for my master’s course in Attachment Theory and… I’m not going to go too much into the logistics of it all…cause I am a little too excited to even be sitting down and writing at the moment…..but I just …
Triggered
Estimated Reading time: 8 min A little catch-up in my story;-) In February 2021 I had been working full time, for just over a month, teaching in the Reception class (with the Lovely Mrs Shawnigan;-) and that was when I started my Compassionate Inquiry studies with Gabor Mate. The world by that point, was slowly …
