The last 4 months I have been pre-occupied and kept away from writing for a bit (even though writing makes me happy and it is freeing) and even hidden away from my friends. But it wasn’t straight away, I disappeared slowly over time. my point is, I knew something was up but, I was too scared to admit it and face my fears and life. So, I ran the opposite direction and distance myself from my friends. But, last week my bestie in the whole world rang me and we video chatted and we were catching up as usual. And then she goes Em, what’s up? You’re not yourself and you are not happy. what’s going on?

Right then and there; I knew she was right. So, I told her everything. We chatted for 7 hours and it was one of the best conversations I have had with her. And it turned my whole thinking around. Turned my heart around. Turned my mind around. And I knew in that moment something needed to happen. She even invited me to go up and visit her. And I am. It has been 7 or so years since I have seen her. And a break is what I need to get through this. A lot has happened since that phone call, and I personally think it is for the best. And I owe it all to my bestie.

I thank you for being ‘that person’ I needed in my life in that moment and always.

I wouldn’t be here today with you. If you have ‘that person’ (previous blog) then stick with them. Keep them around. Because believe me you need them, and they need you. And you are better off. don’t lose ‘that person’. Don’t lose yourself either. I know I have and do all the time, but I always find a way out with help and time. time is so important.

THANK YOU
