Things I have learnt from my Garden
Having a garden is a luxury- but I would always rather have a garden than a big house. It is one of the reasons I could never live in the city!

The Power in Changing Your Mind: An Unneeded Controversy
Do you know what you want to do for a job? Are you happy in your current one? ...Honestly? Do you know your true style? Have you ever wanted to change the way you dress, or the hobbies you have? ...Honestly? Do you really want to go to that meal or event you have been invited to in the future? ... Genuinely? There is some kind of 'secret antipathy' or 'disapproval' if you will- regarding changing your mind about things like your job status / type, whether you want to go out o

Rat Race: A Sunday Poem
When everything needs to be better, and all is said and done nothing inside us feels richer we begin the rat race- Run Rats, Run... When we have bought that brand new rug even though we already have two in storage at home is it the house that needs cheering up? Or is it us that yearns for that hug? When we sit inside our big new house wearing perfume of Gucci or Prada when we look inside, do we feel content? Do we feel pride? Do we enjoy bragging of the places we went? When w

My 10 Favourite Films So Far
I absolutely love my films, and I am borderline obsessed with the way they are created- from prosthetics to CGI and what makes an 'Oscar winning performance'. These are the best films I have watched so far for both in the way they are made and most importantly- how they touch the heart using deeper meanings.

Remembering What Makes You, You
Fitting in is a biological need. We are biologically developed to live in small communities of people- and in the wild, in a tribal community- 'not being securely bonded to a group could be fatal'.
So at what point do our personalities mould into others, and we forget who we really are?

Top 10 Best Books I Have Read So Far
I am the kind of person who will get upset over a book series ending, or get so invested in characters I am kept up at night thinking about them. My favourite category of book is definitely fantasy-fiction, however I do really like a good autobiography, 'self-help' and romance too. The more subtle life lessons and escapism, the better! Here are some of my favourite books and book series I have read to this date. There are probably more I have not thought about that I will pos
