  • WHEN DID I BECOME SO CYNICAL | QUEENBEADY

    WHEN DID I BECOME SO CYNICAL | QUEENBEADY

    When did I become so cynical? Is it my age? Is there something wrong with me? Is it because I’ve encountered too many pricks for one lifetime? (Ps. Dontcha just love the expressive cacti photo to work alongside this intro?)

    Truth be told, I’ve always had a little guard up. I never expect too much of people, (this probably stems back to my absent sperm-donor of a father that waltzed in and out of my early teen years – thanks, ya big ol’ twat!) but really, I’ve almost started to expect the worst in everything. Be it in a persons actions or behaviour or just general day to day life. It’s the most bizarre thing. “I’m going to get the sack!” or “Why did so & so do what they did, it’s so inconsiderate?” are just a few examples over the last few weeks my brain has decided throw at me.

    So I wrote a post about where Summer had got to? Then within an hour of the post going live we were subject to temperatures way past 20 degrees Celsius. I now know that all I need to do to win the lottery is write a blog post about “WHERE ALL MA MONEY AT?” (I joke, of course!) so I was a little bit worried to write a post only days later entitled “The sun has got his hat on” that he might go back on his jollies and take his sunshine elsewhere and leave us Brits with the rain, again. I guess I’m going to have to take a risk and we will just have to wait and see, won’t we?

    I saw something on Facebook the other day that quite frankly, pissed me off. Okay, maybe that is a strong way of explaining my feelings. First it pissed me off, then it made me sad, then it made me question society. All these emotions came from a post that kinda went like this “Omg I’m a size 12 now. I’m so fat!” Whilst I really hope that the person can work on loving her body, it just made me so sad that we are conditioned to believe we should be perfect all the time. Guys, you know what I’m probably at my heaviest (albeit not that heavy at all) and yet I’m still feelin’ sassy with all my perfect imperfections.

    At the moment I’ve really been reflecting on how happy I am. It sounds so corny but life at the moment is pretty good, things are making me smile and I’m encouraging myself day by day to cherish just the smallest things in life that make me happy, it seems that so much is happening at the moment which is making that an easy task. I’m making sure that I’m not running myself in to the ground either. Accepting things with my blog that I only want to do and not stretching myself socially or professionally.

    I’m in a really good place at the moment, as I mentioned in a earlier postI thought it was a good time as ever to grab the bull by the horns and really get back on track with my health and fitness regime. Both physically and mentally. I find that when I’m feeling really positive it spurs me on to be more mindful and look after myself that bit extra – there is no time like the present to kick some balls. Here’s how I’m keeping healthy both body & mind!
