    Today has just been a lazy day but I went on a run and to the gym yesterday. I used to be a bit nervous of going alone but it has been a really great experience so far. I also found some time to do some personal learning on a topic I've been interested in but haven't been able to pursue in the past due to lack of time.

    Managed to get through a rush hour commute for the first time in I can't remember how long. I know some folks have been doing this since the pandemic started, but feels like a big achievement for me.

    I had the courage to ask one of my Dance teachers to arrange an extra practice session for me next week in preparation for my mock exam.

    @Millie2787 hope it's going well, let us know how your first day goes <3

    @Dancer well done for being so brave, proud of you too <3
    Maybe somethings don't get better, but we do. We get stronger. We learn to live with our situations as messy and ugly as they are. We fix what we can and we adapt to what we can't. Maybe some of us will never fully be okay, but at least we're here. We're still trying. We're doing the best we can. That's worth celebrating tooĀ ā¤

    @Aife this week is just a lot of induction work and courses we have to do . Just waiting to hear back in where my orientation shifts are
    Sometimes all you need is one person to believe in you , for you to begin to believe in yourself.

    Today, I woke up instead of sleeping for longer as I am feeling pretty unwell atm. This is not to suggest that I shouldn't relax when unwell, but more that waking up allows me to have the entire evening to pamper myself and hopefully feel better!!! xx

    ā€œAnd 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.ā€ ~ Kirsten Corley

    Found the courage to look at the baby photos Dad took.
    It was emotional but it was needed.

    Showered. Did my hair. Went a short walk round aldi. That's more than I thought I'd be able to do even a few hours ago
