Let’s jump straight in.
How often do you wish for a clean slate or a fresh start?
I must have had this thought at least once a month when I was ill. If you are anything like me, you probably find yourself getting bored quite quickly and looking for something to entertain yourself with. That might be a new TV programme, a book series, jigsaws or even the likes of sudoku puzzles. This was one of my frustrations with my ME. I liked to be on the go and doing things so having all of that stop suddenly due to my ME, was a real blow to the system.
I have been told, over the years, that I am far too positive. That it could be seen as toxic positivity and that I should be more realistic. Whilst I have a few choice words for the people that tell me that, I know that I’m able to keep things in perspective and that not everything is happy, shiny and coming up roses all of the time. I do believe that you can always learn from your situation and the circumstances. For me, it’s important to keep a balance of the positive and the negative as both can bring opportunities for learning. One of the many things that I have learned over the years, is that I don’t need to be on the go constantly, to find my inspiration or continue with a positive outlook and hope for the future.
