2014

2014 has been a funny year. We have had wonderful adventures but i have struggled a lot with my anxiety and haven't really felt myself most of the year. I have already started putting little bits into place to focus on my self and my health in 2015. I have joined the gym and already been twice since i joined three days ago. I have been inspired to write again also. I love writing little fairytales or just tiny short stories. I don't want to set myself goals this year to do as i never complete them and i don't want to put myself under pressure. I am going to take this year as it comes. Be presence, enjoy it and be me! Every year i do a little recap on the year. You can see my 2013 recap here and my 2012 recap here.
