Most of my life's big anxieties have been borne out of ridiculous expectations I put upon myself. I wish I could be one of those people who is completely chilled-out and just accepts each day as it is without panicking about the next hurdle. But where on earth do I start to change things?
I guess I need to beat the pneumonia and the asthma and the kidney infection. That’s probably the best place to start... just focusing on myself and things that make me happy...
...simple pleasures.
I cannot wait to have my socked toes warmed at home in front of the fire in Cornwall. I cannot wait to hear the sea again and to feel the sun-baked rocks against my skin. I cannot wait to lie in the heather and empty my thoughts. I cannot wait to hear the chatter of my family around me, and to listen to my Dad’s latest jokes. These simple pleasures I know and I love and I feel safe with. And this is a good starting point to help me become well again.
