Good day to you my faithful Bloggets. Today’s blog is about
(A new start)
I some
years ago, made a huge new start in my own life. To do this, I knew it had to involve
so many other people. From my own change in life, I from the top of my head,
can count at least six people, who by me behaving in somewhat of a selfish way,
selfish for myself and my own sanity and greed, I hurt others. Do I regret it?
Answer, not at all. All my life I have put others first. At the age of 35, plus
V.A.T, it was my turn in life. Since my new start, I have cried buckets and
hurt so much. Visited that deep, dark, dunging of depression again, but once
again, I don’t regret it for a second. Would I have changed things in my life
if I could live it over again? Yes. For sure I would, but I would still end up
at the same place of my new start.
This
blog so far may seem a little on the cryptic side, those who know me inside
out, and that is about two of you, will know where I’m coming from. Those who
don’t but can relate to what I am saying, as I think these words can reflect
most people’s lives, who have turned that corner and made a new start will know
where I’m coming from.
A few
of my friends, are wanting so much to have a new start in life. By running away
from their life what they know it as now. Some would say a new start should
involve
A new
look
A new
job
A new attitude
And perhaps
a new name. All these things are possible. I did three out of four of these
above changes. I guess some would say a new job was the fourth thing which I
don’t regard myself as participating in, but, I went from being a one hundred
per cent good housewife and a absolutely dedicated Mother, to a part time
housewife and a very real Mother, who is still full of love for my child, but
show it in a different way. I had to be a Mother and Father of my child before
and in a way, still have to be that, but, now my Son doesn’t have the
atmosphere to live in that he used to have, I can relax somewhat. Not saying
the life he lives in is good, far from it, but the negative ways of my x, have
been replaced with a hard stone floor, with a warm coal fire burning on the hearth.
I tell you my dear Bloggets, for sure if I can
change you can. I know this is said by so many people, but if you really really
knew me and I am sure in some years’ time, you will, you may think you do
already, but I have shared about ten per cent of my life with you so far, you
don’t yet, but if you knew me and my soul, you will also say, if Fiona can do
it, I can.
Believe
me; I can’t stand people who say “If I can lose weight you can. If I can do
something with my life, you can!” As soon as someone says that, I turn off whatever
I’m listening to. Whether it is the T.V,
radio or a real live person in front of me. But I have had every experience in
life I can imagine. I am not so arrogant that I will say everything going, out
there, but for certain, at least a hundred different circumstances and the
things I have not been through, I know people who have.
So you
want a new start, but you have no money?
You
can’t move house because you don’t have the resources to do so!
First
lesson, only you, yes you, can do for you. Trust me on this one. It’s a sad lesson,
but if you have waited for years for help and it still has not come, it is now
up to you.
So,
how do you get that strength to lift up your head and feel the energy to do
this?
Ask
yourself this question.
“Where
do I want to be in a year from now? When you have an answer, write it down,
then ask the next question.
“How
will I get there? Write down your answer then the third out of four parts to
this life plan.
What
tools do I need to get me to that place?
In a
year from now, when all your above questions have been answered, sit down look
at where you have come from, how far, and know who got you there?
It
will be then, when you know that you are stronger than you ever thought! The
pride and achievement you will feel will be exhausting, but possible. I love
these quotes.
“Start
by doing what’s necessary; then do what’s possible; and suddenly you are doing
the impossible.” (Francis of Assisi)
“Start
every day with a smile, and get it over with.” (W C Fields)
Well,
Francis has it right, as for W C Fields? If you start with a smile, your smile
will be mirrored. Your very own smile will touch your heart and others, and
will spiral across the world.
Today
is a new start for my Son. The first day for him at his new college. I hope the
world will open for him now and he sees a “Realistic” future for him, full of
dreams which will, come true.
OK, for now, from yours truly

Should we look backwards, to stay where we are, or look
forward to have a future.
