happy new year to my hw buddies. i am not doing resolutions, i am just going to do it!!! i will, as we all do have, my good and bad days, and very bad ones, but i aim to achieve much more in terms of accomplishments and positives. i have done really very well for this year actually. i have said no when required, backed off when needed, vented when needed and i reckon relaxed a bit more too. you wonderful girls and boys have helped and aided this little turtle becoming less critical, and yes i agree-cynical!!! hey i am more than half way there as i admit to my weaknesses. i got jack of going to interviews when i was unemployed, and the same strength and weakness question came up. so one day, after being on the outer nearly two years i responded with my strengths, and on the weaknesses i said, good coffee and chocolate!!! it worked-ice breaker and a cute way of showing a point of difference-cut through. i did get the job by the way........many moons ago.
i guess it is so with our lives. strengths, weakness, character attitude, drive, personality etc. i love diversification. we all learn from each other, be it old or young, educated or not, sick or well, working or not. so as you can see i am adopting the happy turtle of just do it principle. it is amazing how good your clarity is when you have slept well. slept well last night, got up, feed, shower pills, lotions and potions, went back for a five and a half hour kip. i feel great, been to the chemist, post office-check my funds, and visited a mate. i mean this is ultra productive for me, but if i can keep some of that going it will hold me in good stead when life chucks a hissy fit at ya.
may 2015 be a positive and productive year for us all. let's journey through the new year with positive thoughts and deeds. most of all be kind to yourselves, be proactive and strong. have a mars bar. (work rest play) not a bad motto. with depression and depressive illnesses, sometimes it takes a bit of time to reconfigure happiness. i say it like this: i may be depressed, but it does not mean i do not feel happiness, i am just less happy. well i have rambled on. yeah ht doing his annual thing. much love 2 all.
