Invincible

91.

In our life's we have invincible people. People who have always, in some sort of way, been there. And there is no way that they will never not be there, somewhere. 

They are invincible. 

They have a bubble of protection around them at all times and nothing will pop it. I don't believe I'm silly in thinking that. We get so used to each other how could anything change? Especially when that's how it's always been. 

But then life happens, for some reason it doesn't like to be consistent, it doesn't like to be content. It thrives off the waves it causes to people, I guess to keep us on our toes. Make us appreciate what we have. But it seems that in a lot of cases to make us appreciate what we have, something bad has to happen. Something that smacks us so hard in the face we remain dizzy for a little while. 
Why? Why must it do that? Why must it make our invincible people no longer invincible? 

I guess people seem invincible because we have no reason to think otherwise until it becomes apparent that it's not the case. Why would we want to remind ourselves of the nature of life? Why upset ourselves? I don't like life when it makes us think about it. I wish for life to see the good in our invincible people and for it to never let anything bad happen. Ever.

My family are my invincible people. From a young age I learnt that it's not possible to be a superhero, we don't have skin that heals itself, we don't have hearts that beat forever. I don't want a heart to beat forever if I'm honest, I just don't want the hurt of the loss of someone close. Selfish but true. For some reason growing up I believed it would be easier to be the one to be gone before those I never wanted to leave. Thinking now, those people I never wanted to leave would see me as their invincible person, surely? Because it's love. No one wants the hurt that love can cause. So they would never want to see me go. I know that's a depressing thought but I can't help what I think.

We're lucky to have our invincible people in our lives. We're lucky for the time we had, and we're lucky to be having the time right now. Because they are beautiful people.

I think what I'm trying to articulate here but failing at is we have people we love deeply, people who are always in your heart but no matter how much you care for them it's only until something sad happens you realise just how much they mean. And how this bubble we are in that's called life seems to plan a very tough road for us to drive. But involves a beautiful scenery.



Much love

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...

This fat chick's gotta get fit!!

18. My loves, I have something to share with you... First of all I'm listening to You Me At Six - Room To Breathe and I can't believe how different they look and kinda sound! I like it though. Weird how I loved this band back in the day and it's been years since I've heard their stuff, thanks Kerrang for playing them on the radio a bunch of times today :) I'm also listening to a bit of We Are The Ocean, now I've never listened to these before and I kinda like the sound of them, not overly fussed though to be fair.  Right then, as you can see by the title of this blog, I've got to get fit!! After talking to my work colleague/friend Audrey (hi Audrey if you're reading this) on Monday and Tuesday I have decided to enter the Run For All 10K in Hull on the 14th June 2015...I know what you are thinking, I won't do it but please, please believe in me, please support me. I've told 4 people so far and the reactions weren't fantastic, in fact the...

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...
