The Sentimental Heart
As I pondered the question raised in a blog post on Pointless Overthinking by Betul Erbasi. I was reminded of this poem I read in a local Christian magazine many moons ago. I wish I remembered who to give credit, but this poem has stayed with me. Sometimes choosing to share as a note in … Continue reading The Sentimental Heart
Random ramblings
I've been feeling exhausted. Not physically but mentally. Tired of my thoughts, tired of overthinking, tired of any and everything I think I have to do, should do, want to do but don't. I know I should be practising self-care, but when I take a moment to think about what to do, all I come … Continue reading Random ramblings
Glitch in the Matrix

His or … Continue reading Back to the Future
Sometimes we need to go backwards.
I wrote my first post in November which was a pretty big step toward talking about my Mental Health Journey and though I would have written another one by now. I guess it just wasn't the right time but I had to check and I had written to posts which are probably incomplete because I've … Continue reading Sometimes we need to go backwards.
Overcoming…one day at a time!
I have been trying to write my first post for a while, but like most things, I aspire to do I engage in the battlefield of my mind.  I sit down to start typing and my mind decides to wander. Thoughts about my spiritual journey and the constant feeling of not being enough, my life … Continue reading Overcoming…one day at a time!
