LEARNING TO LOVE LIFE

LOVE LIFE & IT WILL LOVE YOU BACK

Hi welcome to my blog this evening. I am sharing my new collage with you which is describing where I am in my life right now.

Clinical depression at it's worst for me was the inability to love anything about me or my life. It was as if nothing in the world made sence any more. I could not see any beauty. I could not feel any love. I was totally numb & disconnected from myself & my relationship with myself & others.

Since January 2013 I have been working so hard to be well for not only myself but for my precious family & very dear friends. 

My blog has really been a creative journey, which has helped me express certain emotions through art & writing.

This new collage is where am hoping to remain, in terms of it's message. It is a positive message, (a quote I read by Arthur Rubinstein), which I felt applied to me.

We all have times when loving life is almost impossible...times of grief, loneliness, uncertainty or illness. I have been through all of these things many times, as we all do in our fragile lives.

This maybe a time to ask for help, tell our stories, open up to the truth, be silent when you need to process your thoughts. It took me over 20 years to get to this point!! 

It has been a great time of acceptence, change, courage, learning & loving from a different perspective. It has been about me learning to take care of my needs, as well as everyone elses. It is all still work in progress, but I am grateful that I am feeling so much stronger & can now see just how far I have travelled since January!

Practicing LOVING LIFE.

Thank you for reading & looking today.

Until next time, take care.
