This is ME!

So I must admit that the first part of the "Why not me?" post could be seen as very negative, pessimistic or just plain down and out.. Definitely not the intention of my posts at all where one is left feeling slightly worse than better off. The truth of the matter is that there are always two sides of the coin as we all know - we can't have light without dark just as life has good times and things and the not so good times and things... So where as Part 1 (read here if you missed it!) focused more on the embracing life and its struggles side of life, this post focuses more on the lighter more brilliant side of "Why NOT me?"...So today, I want you to ask yourself, WHY NOT YOU? Why not you to live your greatest and best and biggest life? This quote below sums it up... Maybe my favourite quote of all time that follows the same theme is one you may be familiar with, titled "Our deepest fear" by American author Marianne Williamson. If you somehow haven...

It's been a series of those sort of the weeks... you know the ones right?

Why why why ?.. It took me going through a series of challenges in a very short space of time for an aunt of min...

Many of you may have journeyed with me through my various jlogging  adventures (journal blogging for those newbies - you will realise I am a great maker-up of words, especially those ending with "ness" that I like to think I've somehow coined!) ... But here I find myself, 3 months to the big 4-0 and more excited and ME than ever before... hence the titled of this chapter of my jlogging exploits being called " This is ME!

I'm not sure if it's when you turn a certain age, or maybe when you've been through a lot in your life as I, and m...
