The reason...

2011 - 2012 were difficult years for me, at a mere 21 years of age, so of you maybe doubtful. But without going into the sticky details, my experience taught me something. They moulded me, shaped me and changed me. At the time it was agonising, and I stamped my feet; screaming 'it's not fair', on a few occasions, and cried myself in to semi-consciousness at night. 

I was dependant, reliant and a complete push over, bowing and bending for one particular being of God's creation. Like every good story, it begins with heartbreak. But I say that now with the beauty of hindsight, but at the time, my world fell apart. And so did I.

With the help of some of the best friends and family you could imagine, I'm not kidding, I realised one key fact of life, and decided to live by it and strive for it:

You, and only you, are responsible for your own happiness. 

And so begun my journey, of slowly, brick by brick, putting myself back together. And the further I got the more I realised that, this is entirely, the formation of one's self, is a life long journey. Now I'm skipping a head almost a year, to now, where I'm sat writing to you, whom ever you are. Since then I've done things I never considered possible, and I've chosen to become a positive product of my past. 

I'd like to share my story of the last few month, up to this point, and take you with my on my journey of self discovery the highs and the lows. I'm aware that no one may ever read this, and that's okay. I'm writing letters to myself, to remind me, where I've come from, what I've been through and reaffirm who I am today. 

So I invite you to come with me.....
