Lifestyle: Social Media, The Good, The Bad & The Ugly.

With the ever growing presence of social media within every inch of our lives, sharing our day-to-day activities to the outside world, is something that is now very much, for the majority "a daily do".

I am all for expressing what we love, and when we are happy, or proud of something - well our natural instinct is to share this passion, and enthusiasm.  I could never fight that, and I love the positive aspects that social media bring to the modern day world. I adore the fact you can share special moments with family and friends, no matter where they are in the world.

I love that you can celebrate, support, and share each others joyous moments, with just a couple of taps on a screen.

Lifestyle: Embracing Our Differences

The most singular thing I love about other humans, is that we are all different.

Some people love to travel the world, meet new people, see new places. Some people like to stay at home, visit the same places, and be close to their loved ones. Some people live to work, some people work to live. Things that I find interesting, you necessarily wouldn't. Some love make-up and reading magazines, some people like watching the Opera and reading Shakespeare. Some love to be the centre of attention, some would rather sit and observe.

Lifestyle: Dealing With The Bad Days.

We all go through hard and sad times in this lifetime, some more than others.

Sad and bad things happen in this world that we cant explain, and they can make us feel incredibly down.

Bringing this back to a more personal context, what do we do when people, or circumstances upset us, or make us angry?

Lifestyle: Following Your Passions Or Dreams

We all have dreams, aspirations and goals we want to achieve in our lives. 

Sometimes it can be a challenge, we can feel defeated, not good enough, and sometimes not worthy of deserving what we desire.

Lifestyle: The Biggest Battle - Your Inner Critic.

The dreams we have, the things we want to achieve, and the person we want to become is always a work-in- progress don't you think?

The one thing that hinders all the above for me, and I feel a lot of people, is the inner critic. At times we can be our own worst enemy. 

As I have got older, I have become more aware of the little rascal,  and on a quest to try and bury the little fool for good.

Beauty || This Is War- Spots! The Essentials.

Bad skin days grace us all with their presence and make us feel pretty down.  (Oh ok,I would even push it and say I have actually cried and refused to leave the house, such a drama queen)

I wish I had the option of living under a rock until it sorts itself out, but unfortunately every day life doesn't let that happen and you can`t just stop everything because the mother of all spots has descended bang in the middle of your fod.
