You are More Important Than You Realise

October 29, 2013

There was a period in my life when I thought I was worthless, useless, a horrible waste of space. I thought that I was incapable of bringing any good to this world, that nobody would love me for who I am, that my opinion simply did not matter. But I managed to get myself out… Read More You are More Important Than You Realise

Sometimes Just Being There is Enough

October 3, 2013

I want to tell you about someone. Someone very special. She is one of the most beautiful people I have ever met – not just in terms of her physical appearance, but because of who she is on the inside. She is kind, caring, compassionate, and so very selfless. If I needed her, I know… Read More Sometimes Just Being There is Enough

It’s Okay to Ask for Help

September 25, 2013

Have you ever heard of the term ‘Shark music’? Last year, I attended a mother’s group for my second daughter to help manage her anxiety issues, and I was introduced to this metaphor. In the famous ‘Jaws’ films, there’s always that same eerie music that plays as the shark swims nearby. It basically foreshadows that… Read More It’s Okay to Ask for Help

Don’t Tell People to Get Over It

July 23, 2013

As some of you might know, I’m currently going through a bit of a rough time. A friend, who has meant a great deal to me, for many years, is no longer in my life. It’s been a tumultuous fortnight, my emotions have been all over the place. But I’m getting there and I have a… Read More Don’t Tell People to Get Over It

Being There at the Right Time

May 31, 2013

We all lead such busy lives. Some of us are parents, some of us work, others study – maybe even a combination of the above. But no matter who we are, sometimes life gets us down. Sometimes we just need someone to be there for us, right at that moment in time. Not in a… Read More Being There at the Right Time

Everyone Loves Differently

May 22, 2013

I love going to visit my parents. Every time we go, the kids have a great day with their grandparents. They’ll laugh, smile, run around; and I’m reminded of the life I had before I met my husband. But what I love most about visiting my parents is remembering how much my mother and father… Read More Everyone Loves Differently

Be Nice Because You Can Be

May 14, 2013

If someone were to ask me, “What makes you happy?”, my answer would be pretty simple. I’m not a woman who cares about owning an expensive pair of shoes. I’m not a woman who cares which fashion trends are ‘in’. I’m not a woman who needs a beautiful house, lots of money, or extravagant gifts… Read More Be Nice Because You Can Be

This is Your Life

May 4, 2013

I’m not an angry person. Emotional, yes. Angry, no. If something upsets me; I might feel hurt, I might even cry if I feel that bad. But recently, something absolutely infuriated me. You probably know by now that I got married and had children quite young. I don’t regret any of my decisions for a… Read More This is Your Life

How to Truly Be There for Someone

April 28, 2013

My husband and I are like two peas in a pod. We’re so incredibly similar. We love blogging. We’re obsessed with cars. We love the same movies and songs. We laugh at the same jokes. We have the same values. Despite all those similarities, though, we are so incredibly different when it comes to our… Read More How to Truly Be There for Someone

Money Doesn’t Always Matter

April 23, 2013

If anyone were in a position to say that money matters, it’d be me. My husband and I are in our early 20s. We have three young children, all of whom have special needs. Some days we’ll have to spend $500 on appointments alone, other days it’ll just be the rushing around of other appointments.… Read More Money Doesn’t Always Matter
