I used to be a worrywart, always in turmoil.
I went to bed one night kissing three children goodnight, to wake up in the morning with two children, one dying during the night.
My perspective on life changed. The reality is at the end of the day we all die so you have options: waste the limited time being happy or miserable.
It took me years to truly accept that fact, but once I did... |

In different circumstances but about a year after my son died i came to a degree of peace i suppose you could say. I realised how lucky i was to have been his mum and how lucky i am to have my daughter.
Once you reach that point you look at things differently. Xxx |

Yes but it wasn't until someone showed me the way. I had very different outlook in life but now enjoy life in its simplicity.
Internet, social media, marketing how products and lifestyle. It is shoved down our throats, manipulated and brainwashed into thinking we need all this. Soaps, reality TV could go on but it is all noise and interference in our lives.
Don't get me wrong still like WhatsApp facebook interesting TV. I don't let it define who I am or should be  |
