M.I.A

Sorry about the lack of regular blog posts recently, I know that the first rule about a blog is to regularly post but sometimes a little social media and technology detox is needed but need I say more it will not be happening again for a long while.

Today I had a day of realising who I am and me time. I sat down with a cup of tea in my rose gold mug and watched Breakfast at Tiffany’s and wondered about how I’ve always dreamed of being Audrey. And then I realised, I have always had the tendency to pine over being someone else, and having the life of someone I think of as superior to me, to the point at which I forgot who I was. And so I thought about a fresh start. Then I began to purge my wardrobe, uploading to Depop like my life depended on it. Which did make me feel better until I realised I now barely have anything to wear as well as a large lack of funds to aid my shopping addiction that had just taken over me. But it did bring me closer to myself, knowing I was ridding myself of the monster I’d become.

The moral of this story is that no matter how much we go off track in life, there’s always a way back and that it’s fine to go off track, even if it is just buying clothes that is just to be within the latest fashion trends. It’s fine to lose yourself, infact, it brings you, closer to you. Well it did me. And personally I think it is what I needed to be able to do this blog properly and transparently. And I know what I said about what would be coming up, and I know I haven’t done any of it yet, but promise you, this is just me settling, I’ll get into the swing of things soon enough. ‘Watch this space’ as they say….
