What Inspires You?

67.

Good evening my loves, lying here in my bed, it seems to be the new location for the posts lately. And I'm feeling very inspired to write to you, at the minute I'm having feelings of really enjoying my blog. I've always enjoyed my blog but sometimes when I see the posts being viewed I feel like WOO I'm maybe helping someone today with my words. 




I recently watched Tom Fletcher's video on YouTube about inspiration and previous to that I had seen Jack Howard's video too and although I'm not a vlogger I felt inspired to write a little post about what it means to me. My take on it you may say. 

I get very inspired by music, listening to music can take my mind into so many different creative spaces and avenues. Music sets my imagination free. I once wrote a whole script (not a very good one) just by playing the same song over and over because it some how got my mind moving. 

Music is a chain reaction, that artist the music belongs too was inspired by something to write what they wrote, it could have been something small or something huge but something, anything created that song which then goes onto inspiring others. 

I love how music makes me feel, I love sitting on the bus on the way to work with my headphones on looking out the window and letting my mind get lost in it. I can go to another place sometimes and I absolutely love it. And that makes me want to do things, make goals for myself or to write something that maybe one day I could share with the world and make an impact. It makes me want to be and do something great. 

I think that's what inspiration does to people, it makes them feel like they can do the best they can, they are going to put 110% into whatever it is that they are desperate to do. But not for other people's sake, but for their own. To prove to themselves that they can achieve what it is in their minds they want to achieve. To give themselves a massive pat on the back and a 'well done' it's pretty amazing. 

I believe it teaches people, people learn from it. Because when there is something you want or something you want to create but you're not too sure how to go about it, you research, you learn what to do to make it possible and by learning you make mistakes and with mistakes you learn to fix them and so on and so on. 

Inspiration is about letting your mind go wild with imagination, it's about giving you determination and confidence. It's actually a pretty big deal when you really think about it. 

It's pretty awesome. So loves, what inspires you? I hope it's something amazing to you. 

Much love,

This may upset you...

50. Hello my loves. WOW we've made it to the fiftieth blog post, if you're reading this one and you've read all of the ones before, thank you for sticking with me and my public diary entries. If you are new to my posts then Hello and welcome to my life, my little world of, well, I'm not to sure...this. I'm listening and watching Sia - Elastic Heart, I absolutely love this song and I love the video! It's so incredibly powerful , I watch it without knowing what it is that is keeping me so drawn to it (maybe Shia's body...) but seriously please go and watch it, don't read the comments of the video if it's the first time you're watching it and let me know what you believe it is portraying. I won't tell you what I believe because I don't want my view to alter what you may initially feel.      I feel like it might be a good time to update you guys on my Dad. By the way, everything I write is solely my feelings and from my point of vie

In difficulty there is strength and laughter

53. Hello my loves... This may seem like a very strange time, some may think I shouldn't write at all right now but as I'm just sat here, waiting, I feel I should (plus I've been given permission from my sister Kellie and Rob) On Wednesday 4th February, which seems like a lifetime ago, I got a phone call to say things with Dad had took a turn and we all needed to get to the home as time was looking short. I can't explain the fear that was going through me. The panic was so strong I was physically shaking until i got to the home to see him.  I had no idea what to expect, what had happened or what was going to happen, I just had to go with it. I guess we all do when faced with these extremes.  I have to admit I was pretty shocked to see that once the sedation had worn off he was back to his smiley self, even dancing along to the music.  But we knew it was serious when they said he was now completely nill by mouth, no food, no liquid.  An influx of fa

Our story with MND so far..

6.  These are my feelings and my thoughts, no one else's, just mine. In June 2013 my Dad was dealt the card of Motor Neurone Disease, a horrible disease. MND attacks the central nervous system and causes muscles to weaken and waste away. People with MND have to struggle everyday with activities that wouldn't have affected them before. It can be different with each person but sadly the outcome is always the same, there are no survivors, only true fighters! There is no cure... In some cases of MND the person can also have Frontotemporal Dementia. A less common form of dementia but nevertheless devastating. My Dad also has this... I first realised that something wasn't quite right around January 2013, my dad and I were sat in a cafe and he couldn't open a folded lottery ticket my exact words to him were "can't you use for hands or something" his reply was "no, my hand has got really weak" I asked him to make a fist with his right han
