Do More of What Makes You Happy

73.

Hello my loves, are you well? I'm very cold :( I felt like a midweek blog post I hope you don't mind :) 

Why do we let others control our happiness? Why do we find it difficult to brush off strangers opinions? We all get pissed off with others everyday, sometimes being angry at someone can consume our day but we really shouldn't let it. 

I try to tell myself and others not to let the opinion of those who mean nothing to my life, effect my life. Instead I feel it's important to let those who do mean a lot to me or effect my life positively, know. I will tell people that I think they are a lovely person. Sometimes it's nice to be nice for no other reason than just simply being nice. 

I admit I'm crap at keeping in touch with people, I often get a little too wrapped up in my own stuff, don't we all? But I hope that people know I would always be there if they needed me to be. I feel a lot of us forget that there are people in our lives who will be there in a minute to help. Sometimes they can be the most unlikeliest person yet turn out to be the best person for you in difficult times. 



We have a lot going for each of us even when it doesn't seem like we do. We can make a positive out of any negative we just have to keep going. Don't allow ourselves to get lost in others negative opinions and actions. Because for the small amount of crap we get dealt we have a huge heap of non crap we can surround ourselves with. 

When we have the opportunity to make ourselves happy we should, change what is bringing us down to something that will lift us up :) 

Much love,
Beth xxx

    Hello again :-) again relating to strangers opinions of us , I suffer from this a lot I seem to take everything personally even if that person means nothing to me , a child shouted freak at me the other day and even that made me feel upset , I'm trying to train my brain into knowing that what other people think of me does not matter , the right people will think the right things about me but it's also hard to let things go , I'm unusual and I should be proud of it x thank you your blogs really speak to me x best wishes

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
