    “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

    @GreenTea I love music. I was thinking about watching netflix before bed but not sure now might just put music on instead :) you watching anything good at the moment?

    That is a darn good question @Shaunie hopefully soon because OMG it’s so cold at the moment. Usually tends to get a bit warmer in April though.

    Ooh Lily Alan is amazing! I don’t think I’ve heard that song but it sounds like it would be good lol.

    Haven’t really found any new music lately, it tends to go through phases sometimes there’s loads of new stuff at once and then suddenly there’s none lol.

    @Shaunie Yeahhh it’s over zoom which makes me nervous but there’s no expectation to have my camera on in the beginning which makes me feel a little better

    @GreenTea just wish she would refer me to the anxious patient dentist instead so they can give me some sort of sedation

    Can you ring up and speak to them about how you are feeling and see if they refer you?
