• The windows to the soul

    It fascinated me what is within a person; their beliefs, morals, desires, aspirations, and to know what it is that drives them; to know what is deep within their soul. On any given day you will pass countless people. Most will be strangers; some will be acquaintances, like that friend or a friend...
  • HTW: Relieving a migraine

    While today's post is a little bit specialised, my hope is that I may help at least one person. You see, I am a migraine sufferer. Prior to this, whenever someone complained of a migraine I had imagined the pain to be that of a larger than average migraine. Boy was I wrong! This fiend can get you...
  • Back to School

    Today is filled with mixed feelings for me. You see, I go back to studying today. I study externally so in essence I shall be studying from home but I am kind of regretting over-extending myself so much. I have chosen to study four units this semester as well as work full time so please bear with...
  • On being the best that you can: part 3

    Stop denying yourself a break: For years I have failed at this point. I work myself down to the bone then wonder why I can’t get out of bed in the morning. My problem is that I don’t know when it is acceptable to simply take a break. It is as though the best time to actually take a breather is...
  • Tall Poppies

    I was listening to Triple J on the way home from work on Friday and they were discussing the notion of Tall Poppy Syndrome. This is the idea that people who have genuinely earnt their successes, talents or achievements are being ridiculed, resented or cut down by their peers. It occurred to me...
  • Finding your mind/body balance

    Allow time for meditation or contemplation: Meditation is a fairly new concept for myself. For years, I have had excruciating stomach ulcers brought on by crazy high levels of stress, so it's a wonder I hadn't looked into meditation sooner. It is amazing just how fast you notice results in your...

To future expectations

2

I feel I have been neglecting to write lately, on here and in general. I'm finding the more time goes by, the more excuses I can come up with. Life gets in the way, assignments need to get done, the dishes need washing, the list goes on. But, I think, what truly makes a writer is getting in there when you're tired, cold, in a bad mood, or knowing there is a pile of other stuff to be done. Being a writer is writing at unattractive times when you would prefer to be doing something else.

So, taking this into consideration, I hope to "blog" a whole lot more in the future, as opposed to my track record of one per month, which to be honest, is quite dismal. I can only hide behind the facade of writer's block for so long.

Here is to keeping my promises :)
