As I look back over the last 2 years i cannot believe how much my life has changed. From feeling like my world was crumbling around me i have walked my path until i have found acceptance and peace. Living life on your own is hard, but living life always wanting more is harder still. This blog is about life and living and dreaming a little. My last 'About Me' i said i wasn't pretty and no i am not, i am beautiful. Welcome to my blog i hope you find what you are looking for.

  2. you have such a wonderfully eclectic taste in books. I love it. I’ve committed through Goodreads, to read 35 books this year and my wish is to make those be non-fiction. I have cleared a shelf in my office for them and so far there are 21 on the shelf. Right now I am reading Joseph Campbell’s The Power of Myth and also Writing Down Your Soul by Janet Conner.

      i have committed myself to read and keep reading but to read more novels this year. I have also included a book or two in my budget which is better but still very slim. I think i have about 20 books to read at the moment and most of them are novels some bought as presents at Christmas. Good look with your reading.
