In my thoughts...

I feel so bad for neglecting my blog. Sorry blog, it's not you, it's me!

It's partly due to the festive/holiday season and all the things that have filled my days, weeks and months both new and ordinary things.  Like my 2 yr old starting daycare, buying another property, packing up and moving, started a BA Degree in Applied Psychology (just finished my 5th assignment a few minutes ago) and having to sacrifice because my other half is doing a Postgrad in Business Administration so time is limited and very precious.

I  turned to my blog today because there's something on my mind. Something I was told recently. Something that was confessed to me. Something unexpected, sad and troubling (to the person mostly) but which I completely understand albeit a little bit of a shock.

I'm not gonna reveal the news, if it can even be called news because that's just not what buddies do :) Just wished I could help, i guess it's just my natural human desire to try and help others. Not for fame or glory but wouldn't it be nice if we help just once person every other day to get back on track. There's a verse that goes "if every man helps his neighbour then who would need help". That's so true, I love that saying and try and put it into practice whenever I can.

Unlike the usual case, this has very little to do with poverty, hunger, lack of shelter but rather I suspect a result of wanting to self-soothe or relieve stress. Whatever the reasons, time is a great healer and talking definitely helps. Buddy, you're gonna come out of this better, stronger and funnier than ever.
