If I had been writing my life all along, well I’d have to say I wasn’t doing too badly … I have pretty much got all I asked for. Maybe I should have asked for way WAY more…. a big fancy house, a Hollywood career… money in an endless supply, smarts to be a Doctor or technology guru, a chocolate box of potential partners and the ability to eat a box of chocolates without gaining a pound.

But I still think I’ve done pretty well.

I remember being 6 years old and dreaming of living near beaches with palm trees and beautiful oceans, that I’d seen in picture books…. I. actually lived in freezing Scotland! So many years later …I’m living in a beautiful oceanic climate, I just have to walk for 2O minutes … and here I am right on that Beach! I’ve noticed over the years that things you wished for and hoped for…. did eventually show up, sometimes when it seemed impossible…. but you had to be careful…. so did the things you worried about …. and hoped would never happen.

After all they do say thoughts become things…. and I’d venture to suggest that absolutely yes… it’s true … the problem with us is that we find it hard to corral our thoughts … squash our worries and not only that … we can’t make up our minds about stuff. And asking alone is not quite enough… not always .. you have to take some action… even if it’s small.

I’ve started to write it all down… I’m trying to stay consistent… and not give up. Hard though it sometimes is, don’t wish anyone ill, in fact try and mind your own business, try not to assume…. or let yourself be provoked…

Write a little every day, even though you may be repeating yourself. And although you’ve probably heard it all before… say Thank you for whatever you have, be grateful, even for the little things.

Even though it’s pretty late on in mine… I’m going to give writing what remains if my life a go… hopefully it will keep the negatives at bay, and what do I have to lose by trying…I’ve already got it pretty good.
