Do you ever look back on your past self and realise that it seems so foreign? Like the things that used to be important to you are no longer important? Or those things you never cared about are now at the centre of your attention? How weird is it to think that we can become a totally different person within just a few months. 

I look back on where I was this time last year; I was a fitness freak, new Christian, but overall, quite unhappy. I think this comes down to not knowing who I was or thinking that the rut that I was stuck in would never be over. 

If someone had told me 12 months ago that I would be where I am today, I think I would have just laughed. In the past few months, I have realised what (and who) is important to me and what isn't. And I think this is one of the most crucial things to realise; things do get better, and as cliche as it sounds, time really does heal. Embrace the moments, for now, but realise that they get 1000 times better (and sometimes 1000 times worse). I am now almost a completely different person to who I was a few months ago but it's great!! Let's see where I am in another 12 months :-) 

Excuse the shitty posts for the next week, they get better once I'm overseas - I promise!

much love,
