20.01.2022 This popped up on memories from a few years ago. It's a poem about the black dog, aka depression, and I think the author puts it beautifully. The Black Dog A poem by Jamie Davis... Have you met the Black Dog? Has he followed you late at night, in your dreams or in your mind? He is cunning, and will lie in wait, until he senses the time is right. Then when you least expect it, he will pounce, taking your freedom, your confidence, your courage. Once he has you in his bite, he will control your life. He will make you do things you never thought you could or should. Those who have not met the Black Dog will not understand where you are, or who you are, and they will not know where to find you, or your soul. They will just see a different person, and won't know why. They will still care, still love you, and try to understand you. But you have the Black Dog, he is your new friend. He holds the power, and gives you his strength, but his strength will bleed you dry. He will show you the way to your new life, but this new life you cannot sustain, In the end you will put out your hand for help, and those that love you will release you from the Black Dog's bite. But beware of the Black Dog, as he will always be there, hiding and lurking somewhere. You must respect the Black Dog, and be at the ready, don't let him get you, don't let him win. Now you hold the power, and you make the rules, and, should that Black Dog cross your path, you will know how to fight to redeem your life, 'cause that Black Dog is never as strong as the person he bites. Jamie Davis



20.01.2022 We're currently walking into uncharted territory. And it's okay to be worried, scared or angry. I'd like to ask something of each of you that follows this page though, and if you agree with what I'm about to say, please share and spread the message. Our drivers, warehouse staff, retail workers, the ones who stock the shelves in supermarkets, pharmacies and more - they are more essential than ever right now. And yet ever since this started I have watched these people get abuse...d, verbally and physically, and that is not okay. So what I want to ask is this: If you're at your local Woolworths, Coles, convenience store, whatever today and you see a customer behaving in a manner that's not okay to staff, say something. Stand up and stand together. Tell that person 'Hey, you need to stop. They're trying to do their job.' People are less likely to be abusive and violent when they're facing more than one person. No, it may not stop it from happening right away. Know what it does do, though? That staff member who was at breaking point is suddenly shown, they are not alone. They have support. And it may just create a ripple effect. From experience, when you start that ripple - many others stand up too. They just need that first person to start it. So be that person. Stand up and stand together for another human. You might be the reason that one time today, that staff member isn't sitting in their lunch room in tears. Stand up. Stand together. Show them you are not alone. We can and will get through this but we must do it together. #youarenotalone #standupstandtogether

19.01.2022 Losing someone hurts like hell. It doesn't matter if you lost them because they passed, or because you can no longer speak to them. It still hurts, and it is still grief. You are valid. Your feelings are valid. And you are not alone.

11.01.2022 With everything happening around the virus right now, I understand the world has become even more of a scary place. Whether you are in isolation or not, at risk or not, or just trying to do your normal grocery shop, please remember you are not alone. When you are out and about, show empathy, compassion and kindness, even to those whose behaviour makes you feel may not deserve it. We need to support each other and not push each other down to get what we want. One kind act ca...n create a ripple of people passing it on. Try to do one nice thing for someone you don't know each day - and pass on the message. You are not alone. We can stand together in these crazy and difficult times.



10.01.2022 I learned something new I want to share with anyone who is struggling. 'Zoom out' It doesn't sound like much. But, I was struggling with something that seemed impossible before the weekend. And someone said something that resonated with me and, in practice, actually worked. Not saying it would work for everyone; but it may for someone.... This person after listening to my challenge, suggested to zoom out. From focusing on this seemingly insurmountable problem, Zoom your perspective out to your city, country, world, solar system, galaxy and infinity. Then back to your challenge, "This too, shall pass". This really changed perspective on the challenge I faced and enabled me to face it and put it behind me. I hope it helps someone else the way it helped me.

05.01.2022 There's alot of things going around social media at the moment, what with alot of workplaces shut down and people isolating. There's some fantastic baking tutorials. Free courses. Amazing examples of home schooling schedules. Ideas of what you should do in this 'free time' so that you don't waste it. But here's the thing. If you're over loading, over stressing, over committing, to the detriment of your well being, that is not a good thing. ... Don't push yourself to do more just because you should. Don't burn yourself out. You do you. Do what makes you happy and comfortable. Push your limits if you would like to. But don't throw yourself into a breakdown just because the world says you should try harder. Remember #youarenotalone in this.
