Bright

Lately life has been so busy I barely notice the days slipping by. A new job is sapping all of my time and energy but I am getting so much experience and joy out of it that I wouldn't have it any other way.

While commuting I have been listening to the 'happy place' podcast by fern cotton and I have really been relating to and being intrigued by some of the thoughts they have been exploring. So much so in fact, that I wrote a poem about it (please see below).

I've been interested in the idea of being in control of how we pecieve the world, how we respond and how we feel. I think it's easy to blame 'bad events' or 'bad people' for our moods without taking responsibility for our own wellbeing. I think we forget that how we act and how we speak (even when angry/sad) impacts the world around us. Food for thought I think.

Bright

Some light flickers, 
But seek to shine, 
When light holds even, 
Emotions are mine

We seek constant, 
But fail to see,
We seek the light, 
But we are the key

To me and you, 
I seek to warm, 
For I cause change, 
Even when I'm torn 

Show kinds of light, 
Bright meaning smart,
Bright from your soul, 
And bright from your heart 


Hope you are all well,

Much Love,

Lozzy

Autumn reflection

Happy Monday folks! Where has this last week gone? In fact, how has autumn nearly come and gone! Scarfs, candles, pumpkins, warm drinks and leaves, this time of year is so lovely. This season is always one for getting back into the swings of uni/school work and coming to terms with the fact that summer is now a distant memory, the nights draw closer and the weather gets more and more dreary with each coming day…. Yay? But after a few years of study, I feel like I have got into the balance of life/work but every year September brings around the challenge all over again. With what feels like mountains to do, sometimes the things I enjoy seem to slip. So, having just been set 5 projects all due by December, I thought now would be a good time to outline what I find are the best ways to manage those stressy times but still get what needs to be done… well… done! 1)       Lists – an old but true suggestion. Write everything down. The stress of forge...

Just keep swimming

Hello hello, Heres my first blog post. Seemed fitting to start something new on the 9 th of October…. Anyone? Well I’ve been having the burning desire to chit chat and document my thoughts, ideas, mishaps, adventures and maybe even a sprinkling of advice for good measure. So here we go. Strap in folks. This is definitely going to be a bumpy ride so bear with me…. Well happy Monday. Today consisted of my theory driving test which phew I passed! Whoop whoop for me. But as anyone who knows me knows all too well, my stress levels are something that without… well…. I wouldn’t be me. So with stress levels still high but with a sense of success seeping in, I plodded through the ever coldening (not a word but should be) English weather to catch my train. Always busy. Like its midday on a Monday. What are you all doing. Anyway as I slumped into a chewing gum covered seat I rested my arm on the arm rest. But it wasn’t an arm rest. It was a poor unsuspecting middle aged mans knee wh...

Autumn at the Arboretum

Hey all, I went to Westonbirt arboretum  again this year and loved it just as much as the first time. The crunching of the leaves, the sun through the blazing leaves and a bitter breeze on my face. It was lovely to have a day away from everything. We got wrapped up in our woollies and braved the cold day and really was not disappointing with the array of colours. A time to really relax and just be in the moment. How hippy-fied of me… We spent the day looking at so many beautiful autumn colours, drinking hot chocolate and eating doughnuts! My boyfriend ( dark_matter97 ) and I took lots of pictures while I was there and thought I would share a few;   Happy Halloween and I hope you all have had a great autumn thus far, Id love to see any autumn pictures you have taken this year! Love, Lozzy
