My husband says I am a nightmare, actually, a ”complex nightmare”, said with love and understanding of course! In truth the phrase probably does sum me up which is why I will use it.
Explanation:-
• Complex due to my thoughts being varied, deep and even conflicting
• Nightmare due to their constant, numerous and consuming nature.
I am an emotional writer, finding writing a medium with which to express myself; I find this difficult verbally and am averse to any conflict.
I am creative and artistic at work and hobbies; (working in jewellery) but only have enthusiasm for “bespoke” creations. I find it difficult to label a theme to my writing but recently am enjoying learning and experimenting with different forms of poetry. A few very difficult years emotionally have drawn me to this genre. Somehow, I am finding more clarity in my thoughts by using words that are not always so clear, or even placed in a structure that take me out of my comfort zone.... hmmm work that one out LOL.
I am excited to see what I write, as it is a total surprise to me every time; but draws me....
My life experiences are such that I have a personal view on most subjects and if you follow me you may find my topics to be what my daughter would call “random”.
Even when my focus is dark, I am actually a positive person by nature and have found strength to get through many obstacles in life - even if some "down" times are more lengthy than others ; maybe it is in my DNA - my blood group is B+ (be positive)!
If you have read this, welcome to a bit of my world ....

It is most often a lovely feeling to fall into sleep like that…

When I first learnt to meditate I would always fall asleep (and yes lovely) but now can actually mediate for 5/10 minutes and it can restore my balance, reduce anxiety and aid my ability to focus on what’s really important…. Live in the moment 😊

I was so intrigued from the beginning with “Meditation/ chauffeurs slumber/ through internal labyrinths” . The poem alone, was very calming. I have not tried meditation, but I’m sure I need to.

dissipating clamours of my racing heart”
