    “And when they look at you, they won't see everything you've been through. They won't see the **** that turned to scars that began to fade with time. They won't see the heartbreaking things that shook up and changed your entire world. They won't know how many tears you cried or even what it was you were crying about. They won't see how strong you had to be because you had no other choice. What they will see though is how compassionate you are because you experienced pain. What they will see is how kind you are because you experienced how cruel the world is. What they will see is how good you are because you've seen how bad things or people can be. The difference between you and your experiences are who you choose to be, despite everything that could have turned you cold and unkind.You are the good the world needs and the best of us.” ~ Kirsten Corley

    Today my mam went to lidl while I was at college. This is oddly specific but every Christmas I love a bag or two of cheese and chive wheels from lidl.

    Anyway I came home and found out she had brought me two bags(i won't eat them all at once 😂) and two more to take up as I won't be here for Christmas.

    It was so simple just her thinking about what I like most but I'm so grateful like I just needed that 💕 

    Reminds me that doing something for someone doesn't have to be hard x

    Social Services because they might be able to find me somewhere to stay when my mum goes into hospital.

    My old manager... he just said he's proud of me and honestly it means so much :) while I was in hospital a few years ago and everyone was making me sort my will and shit cause they didn't think I would be around much longer, he believed I would be and kept my job safe for when I got home, I don't think he realized how much that meant to me, having something to come home too, and him never giving up on me :)

    As I brought my boyfriends family a few gifts I realised in that moment even while I didn't fork out loads I still have enough to see him and get them nice things and be all warm on Christmas and others don't. 💕

    I brought a toy for the children's hospice and donated some money to a local homeless charity x

    Today I am grateful for only working three days, yeah they are 12 hour days, and I work alternate weekends, but today has been my day off, and I've been able to just relax and chill. Sometimes I feel bad for not doing anything when it's my day off, but today I've embraced it and I've had a really lovely day :heart:

    Grateful to the recovery man who calmed me down after I had a car accident by just being kind. There are some amazing human beings on this planet and he is one of them. I didn't really even get the chance to say thank you as I was in shock but I think he knew I was thankful anyway. <3
