life :: new found strength
This time I personally took time out of blogging to allow things in my life to settle, and for me to reach a place where I felt strong enough to write again. It has been a summer of weird feelings. Not even a summer, but an autumn too. It’s been like a slow rollercoaster that […]

life :: all i’m dreamin’ of
It’s a rainy Sunday in Lancaster but it by no means a dull one. (I even made it to the gym this morning. I say made it, I left the house at 8am feeling more energised than ever.) Last night’s events hit me like a ton of bricks. Without going into too much detail, British […]

university :: one down, five to go
Happy Monday lovelies! Wowee, the last twenty four hours have been completely the opposite of the contents of my last post. And for that, I am grateful. This morning I had my first written exam of the season. It was not by any means ‘good’ and there was inevitably so much more I could have […]

life :: dwindling
As I sit outside, the birds tweeting their last tweets, and the sunset filling the sky with a pink hue, I can’t help but worry. It is the last thing that I should be doing, yet the only thing I seem to be doing. And I’m no longer quite sure why that is. The dwindling […]

life :: surreal
I am going through something at the moment. Truth be told, I always am, as is everyone else in the world, and those of you reading. Whether it’s normality, or the depths of despair, or exam stress, or money troubles (the list is endless), part of accepting life’s phases is part of healing. I am […]

life :: forward
There have been critical moments when I wanted to move forward in my life—but I held one foot on the brake. I felt such grief at the prospect of leaving behind relationships and beliefs that were once essential to me, yet these attachments kept me weighted and weary. I’m now learning the joy of letting things […]

love :: foundation
I find myself on Valentine’s Day alone on the sofa, after having watched part of PS. I Love You with my beautiful friends. Not alone but alone, yet so content with where I am right now. My coffee and cardamom candle is burning, and the lights are on low, and I’m gently watching the ending […]

life :: nerve
Saturday 9th February 2019 It’s been a while since I’ve spent a Saturday in a town centre nursing my tired self with a cappuccino. If you hadn’t already realised, cappuccinos are my go-to, I feel so basic but you can’t go wrong with a lil’ coffee and a whole lot of milky froth. Today I […]

2019 :: january

No matter how your month has been, don’t let a dull, stressful January influence the rest of the year! Here’s what’s happened this month […]

faith :: true
A constant invitation, that is what He offers us. Maybe that is quite an intense way to begin a blog post, but sometimes we need to be hit with the truth. Truth gives us confidence, and instills trust, whether that be trust in someone, or trust in something higher. Confidence is heralded by the world; […]
