How can we learn truth, When all we’ve known is lies? Turn our lives round for good, When evil has been done to us?

Well, in a few hours it is going to be the end of the year and, as usual, so many things have happened over the time.

I have seen SO MANY adverts for bee venom as a beauty treatment, as a healing cream, as in getting rid of marks and helping your body tone up etc.

Well, as you all know, we have been through some really tough Christmases in the first half of this decade. 

Truthfully I haven’t been writing here for some time because I not only did I have a stomach flu but was suffering from daily headaches and migraines and couldn’t cope with light.

Sometimes I must admit inspiration comes from an unusual source - one that you never imagined in your wildest dreams to happen. 

I think I have mentioned this before, but I have a condition that is called Treacher Collins and needed my face to be reconstructed 16 years ago. 

This is actually something I have been considering a couple of weeks at least, I must admit. 

Have you ever known that the world has moved from one month to the next but you don’t register it properly?

I don’t really know what to say!  Actually I feel a bit speechless (writerless) I guess you’d say.  After updating the website my readership has increased dramatically!

Have you ever watched people reacting in an overly “sweet” way to people and wondered if it was real or an act?

I don’t think you’ll be surprised to hear I’ve been thinking about how having low self-esteem has impacted my life for many years. 

I don’t think you’ll be surprised to hear that transitions are on my mind at the moment.

As you have seen, I have thinking about decisions we make quite a bit.  And the fact I am going to be 51 on Monday - how did I get so old? 

As I am fast approaching my 51 birthday, my mind has began to think back over this past year and the things that have happened to me. 

This week has been very different for me in a lot of ways.  After the week in hospital, life has been much better for because of how well I have been feeling.

There have been so many thoughts going round my head this past week - as you can probably imagine.

I thought I had finished writing about nature and nurture and their impact on lives, but actually realised I haven’t.  There is more I would like to share with you about it. 

I was considering talking to you about being proactive because it has been on my mind quite a bit recently. 

One of the things I have been considering is the different levels of ability in work and the kinds of structure needed to craft together something.
