    I’m sorry to be so crass in the opening title of this post, but I think it really needed to be written just so I follow through on this post. I also think I need to apologise for the amount of blog posts that start with “The Importance Of…” and then I end up going off on some sort of wild tangent, but I’ll let it slide because it makes for a good blog post. It’s just in my latter twenties (eurgh – that sounds so scary to say) I’m starting to realise so much about myself and my daily surroundings, and now that I’ve started to accept it I’ve found that my anxiety is actually starting to calm down.

    My brain is now mentally taking its own “woo-saa” approach to life and it’s never been so clear that there’s a huge importance to letting shit go…

    I’ve not stopped. Like literally, not stopped for the last two months or so. Every weekend has been jam-packed and many weekday evenings, too. Weekends away, gigs, parties, racing, festivals, baby showers. You name it. There has been something on the calendar that I just haven’t been able to get out of and, after running myself ragged, last week my body succumbed to the dreaded cold. And you might be screaming, “oh poor you, only a cold?!” but seriously, this one has hit me like a tonne of bricks (and the poor sods that I’ve passed it on to as well!) Never have I realised just how much I need to start re-practicing a little bit of slow living!

    STUCK IN A RUT AND NOT KNOWING WHAT TO DO? | QUEENBEADY

    This blog has been my baby for a good seven years. And whilst, it’s had it’s peaks and troughs it’s been something constant throughout those said years. There’s been long illnesses, loss of loved ones, break up of friendships, job changes and more so it’s easy to feel like this space on the web offers me something when there are both life-shattering and life-changing events going on around me. So, why do I feel so lost with it all and feel stuck in a major rut?

    All of my life I’ve known I’m a little bit quirky, a little bit different. I never liked to follow the herd. And often, I felt like I was penalised for that. Going through school despite having lots of friends there were still some god awful people out there. I’ll always vividly remember someone coming up to me on the school playing fields, grabbing my hair and pulling me in to a crowd of people to try beat me up. The reason for it, I was never quite sure of. I’ll also never forget the moment an older school girl smashed my head on a metal bar on the school bus because her brother was also picking on me. I’ve sadly had to face facts that there will always be someone, somewhere not liking me.

    I am enough to feel like I belong.

    I am enough to feel like I’m strong enough to conquer every single day put in front of me.

    I am enough to feel a million dollars when I slip on that perfect dress.

    I am enough to allow myself to eat and drink what I please without fear of putting on a few lbs.

    I am enough even if I do put those extra lbs on.

    I am enough regardless of what I look like.

    I am enough even if I don’t dress like that girl on Instagram.

    I am enough even if you don’t like me.

    I am enough to make life decisions without fear of implication.

    I am enough to speak with anyone who feels that I don’t deserve their time.

    I am enough even if I don’t have as many followers as you.

    I am enough even though I can only afford last season Mulberry and not this years.

    I am enough. Full stop.
