Oh dear blog...


Im so sorry for neglecting you!
But i'm back now, with many more musings and goings ons :)

Life since April has been eventful to say the least. I've had an interesting journey.
I've learnt so much about myself and about life.. I think learning about ourselves and our emotions is such a massively important lesson in life and really, more people should take the time to do it.
I don't believe for one second that I am now completely in control of my emotions but I do feel more equipt to deal with them and accept certain feelings and saying 'its okay' to feel that way and move on.

I am trying to take better control of the practical things in my life these days.. my modelling is, as ever, hugely important to me.. but I have also, with a little help from those around me, found the creativity inside me once again and am finally getting on with my clothing label.
I will dedicate a little post to my clothing soon and hopefully include some images too.
What I should say is that is a huge help to me and my wellbeing to be feeling creative again and to feel inspired to get up and get on with the day.
Creativity really is the best medicine I have found.

We have also moved into our beautiful house, a proper house. A home, really. Something else, I so much desired.
I've descovered how important the comfort of a real home is to me, somewhere to nest and to make my mark on, somewhere to surround myself with all the things that make me happy, a little sanctury. A cat filled sanctury at that...
These are our two new additions to the family:


Needless to say; I am feeling rather domesticated these days :)
Domesticated, but what comes with that is comfort, stability and safety. Something I always crave.
Call me home bird..

With love x

The Monk That Sold His Ferrari

I mentioned in one of my previous posts that I've been enjoying studying a really great book written by Robin S. Sharma called The Monk That Sold His Ferrari, it is a brilliantly inspiring read... One I certainly recommend.  There are so many incredible quotes I could share from the book, so many of the words leap off the page to me with such intense significance I have to keep turning back the pages and re-reading them in affirmation; absorbing them like gospel. It a fair to say this book if quickly becoming a favourite... 'Awaken yourself to the power of your own mind to make things happen. Once you do, the universe will conspire with you to work magic in your life.' 'There was one quotation, however; that he carried deep within his heart; one that encapsulated all the values he had come to cherish... The words came from the great Indian philosopher Patanjali... Julian then showed me the card. The quotation read: When you are inspired by some great purpose, some extra

A little perspective.

I was talking to someone recently and conversation led on to us sharing our mutual appreciation for this beautiful quote from the film American Beauty.. A long standing favourite of mine, I think it is one of the most beautiful pieces of script I've seen in a film. It's one of those moments where all the world seems to stop and all you can do is watch and listen as everything you've ever felt gets expressed so wonderfully. I remember the first time I saw American Beauty, and the first time I saw the scene in the movie when this quote is spoken, I wanted to rewind and listen to it again and again so every word of it could soak into my soul, I never wanted to forget those beautiful words and how they made me feel. Back then, I was still very unhappy.. And those words meant something else. Now I read them and feel something different. I can almost relate even more.. As something horrible did  happen to me, I was not dealt the kindest card, and I could  be pissed off about that
