I’m not saying it would be easy.
We’re willing to take it.
“I’m dying” you say, with tears falling
into crevices lying deep in your cheeks.
What is holding you here?
What is it that makes you stay –
when all you’ve ever known is no more.
Your mind lives in a different time.
The woman you ask for is gone.
She’s had her rest – well deserved.
Go to meet her.
She cannot come back to you.
She has gone home,
to her babies beloved.
Both had waited far too long
to feel their mother’s embrace.
Don’t be afraid to go home.
You deserve a rest from
constant confusion.
Pounding beat..
Stinging eyes
Fingers crack
As night time sighs.
Forever.
Eternal.
Cut short by the wise.
Words lose meaning,
the keys won’t play.
Lying here lonely,
Wishing lifetime away.
Though it is still
It passes so fast.
Numbness, fear,
How long will it last.
While watching the Live episode of Emmerdale (I never watch it but decided to see how they got on due to the copious amount of tweets about it) I decided to do something that has, inevitably, been done a million times over. I decided to compile a playlist of Happy Songs, songs that will cheer me up no matter what mood I’m in! So… here we go… (These are in no particular order by the way!)
In my old secondary school the students pick a graduation song which is the last song they hear at the end of their graduation mass. My one was a weird mix of three songs, only one of which any of us knew. It was a joke and an embarrassment. However, when my brother left the school, this was their graduation song and I fell in love with it. I had never heard a more positive, gentle, encouraging song in my life. It seems to be the only song I can listen to that assures me that there will be good times ahead and that everything will be fine no matter what. Love it.
Let’s face it, how can anyone listen to this song and not start tapping their feet and jiggling around a bit?! It’s such a feel-good song! (Even as I’m typing this I’m doing a little jiggy/bumpy/boppy sitting-down-dance in my chair… Irresistable!!)
The more I’m listening to these songs the more I’m dancing around the room like a lunatic! This song, I just adore it! Imagine waking up to this every day – you would be the most positive person on the planet. Fact.
5. Glad All Over by The Dave Clark Five
This is the song on the McDonald’s ad. It always makes me happy imagining running in and/or around gigantic Happy Meal boxes! It reminds me of the inner child….or outer…take your pick!
Just putting this post together has put me in the happiest mood EVER! It’s amazing how much of an effect thinking positively can have!
Try doing this – I can promise you it’s worth it!!! 🙂 I’m a seriously happy bunny right now!

Although it’s only Tuesday, I’ve had a good start to the week. I haven’t been in trouble in work (yippee!) and I’ve had a brainwave of going to Wales during the mid-term to visit the person that many mistake as being my other half. I’m looking forward to the prospect of getting away from it all! Even if it is to somewhere that’s just slightly different to here!
I’ve managed to stay positive in school and not feel disheartened – like I said, it’s only Tuesday, so this could change drastically by the time that Friday arrives. There have not been any issues so far with any parents, teachers or students that have made my gut twist or wrench. I’ve had no reason to be upset, no reason to feel down, and no reason to feel despair. I’m in a good place today.
Last night I went to see The Perks of Being a Wallflower. I had bought the book but decided to go to see the movie with two of my cousins before I read it. I must say, I was a little disappointed. I could see the “twist” a mile off. Emma Watson gave a beautiful performance, which added to her enchanting desirability. There were many laugh-out-loud moments and many tearjerkers but, if truth be told, the movie lacked something. If anything, it highlighted the importance of the book. It made me feel that the book must be a million times better and more powerful than the movie and that I simply must read it.
It’s nearing the end of the work day and I am quite tired. WordPress is blocked in the building so it will probably be a while before I get to post this. Sometimes I wonder who actually reads this stuff. I mean, let’s face it. There is little on this site that will be of any use to other people. I said this earlier on Twitter and it’s stuck with me since – “I’m simply having a conversation with a world that’s not listening.” Hits the nail on the head in ways…
