Hi Readers,

Since it is the first day of the year I thought I would write a beginning post!

Firstly I would like to thank everyone who takes the time to read my blog and for your continuing support since late September (2018) whatever your reason for reading or if you are simply just having a quick peak, I appreciate it greatly! I hope you keep on enjoying reading my posts through (2019) and beyond! I would also like to say hello and welcome to any new readers that my join me throughout the year, we are all in this together you are not alone! Not to mention the obligatory Happy New Year to everyone!

I don’t really believe in new year resolutions, personally I think as soon as you say you have one you are doomed to failure within the first few days. One way that helps me to stay on track however is to write down things that I would like to achieve within in the year, a goals and targets list if I was to give it a title. It gives me more focus and satisfaction when I see my hand work paying of when I have crossed one off. For example one of my personal goes is to loose some well needed weight! As I am aware this is a very common goal in January! As I have learn’t from personal expierence once you “fall of the wagon” I fail because I say “oh another day won’t make any difference” and that never ending cycle continues. My point is if you haven’t achieved all your goals for the current year by New Years Eve it is ok! Everyday that we are lucky enough to see is a new start. I know it’s a little premature of me to talk about the end of the year when a new year has just begun! It is however good to keep a thought like that in mind as it might give you the strength and courage to get through any hard times. if you don’t think you can achieve something straight away keep going and don’t give up because you can and you will!! It may not happen today or tomorrow but it will everything we do gets us on the path to a happy brighter future! (Even if we don’t realise at the time!) As I keep saying within my blog posts and will be forever one of the messages within them is everything is “possible” you just have to keep going and stay strong and most importantly believe in yourself!!

Being disabled can be very challenging and scary at times, I am sure it’s a never ending fear of uncertainty for family members but I assure you everything will be overcome! I will be here throughout the year sharing my experiences and challenges to hopefully reassure everyone that is going through similar issues that there are processes and procedures that can be done to ensure a wonderful life for me and other disabled people and of course their supportive family and friends!

Make 2019 a year where you can say “I succeed” or at the very least look on the “brightside”and say I tried but I will get there in he end” Life can change in an instant so make every second and everyday count! Even if one day is just getting out of bed when life is being extra tough that day! It is ok!!! It is all leading you on a path to happiness and fulfilment!

Enjoy the first day of the year whatever your plans are, remember that you are never alone! I’m wishing everyone the best for what ever lies ahead for us all. I hope the readers that read this even if you are just reading it out of curiosity, have the best year and that it’s full of happiness, love and good health! I have hope that even when life ‘throws a spanner in the works’ that all of you have the love, support and strength to come back even stronger than before!

2019 is going to be a very instresting year in so many ways I’m sure that I don’t have to go into details on this but together we can do it!

Hello 2019 we are all ready for you!

Regards
