    I won’t be sharing my positive thought of the day it’s best left unsaid but it has made me feel a little more positive about myself. I feel a little less weight on my shoulders.

    Nothing particularly intriguing, it’s just people/relationship issues. I think I’ve been beating myself up about things that I could not influence. I’m learning a great deal about myself - some of it is good, some of it is not and some is confusing.

    I think that actually working out the not so good stuff about ourselves is just as important....

    Confidence has been a rare commodity in my recent life and I was pleased to be able to visit my solicitors’ today and be decisive about what I wanted to happen. My attitude wasn’t negative about my divorce but it was positive about the future I want. The negative thoughts are still there but I’m continuing to challenge them with positive mental attitude. The battle continues.

    Tomorrow brings visits from the carpet people to measure and fit flooring for my new home. I’m looking forward to it! Now that’s positive.

    That’s an amazing post!
    The purpose of life is not to be happy. It is to be useful, to be honorable, to be compassionate, to have it make some difference that you have lived and lived well.

    I’m not amazing or phenomenal I’m just trying hard. I’ve done it before and still not sorted the underlying issues and that’s the bit that worries me. Previously I’ve managed to convince myself and others I’m dealing with my problems but at the end of the day I’ve ended up masking the issues rather than addressing them. I really hope this time it will be different but I still have this nagging doubt.

    Day by day Drew, that’s all you can do

    All you can do is keep putting one metaphorical foot in front of the other.. You are amazing and you are phenomenal because you are working hard to fight how you have been feeling for a long time and you are making very definite positive changes. That's amazing.

    Happy carpet measuring and fitting day!
