Some of you who have known me for a long time will know that I used to not have much confidence at all, particularly when I was at school and I would be frightened to say hi to people I wasn’t friends with. Also, up until I started my blog, I never really shared the thoughts I have written about with anyone unless I was extremely upset. However, through my recent counselling, I have started to challenge previous instilled beliefs and anxieties and as a result, I have found out more about myself, some of which is new to me!

Until recently, I haven’t experienced some feelings before like sometimes missing the company of people and enjoying sharing my day-to-day happenings as well as deep, personal feelings.

That’s what reminded me of a song from High School Musical which is about people coming out with surprising, unknown interests.

I feel this represents my own initial reaction to these changes, feeling used to how I dealt with things for such a long time (being reserved and an over thinker) and learning how to deal with things any other way would be a big, scary learning curve. Also, I have felt at times that it would be strange for other people to see me in a different way too (although, maybe I’m wrong!)

You could argue that these changes have already helped me to make my blog what it is but I’m hoping that I am going to have more Troy/Gabriella like moments and that these new discoveries lead to more new and exciting things happening in my life.

Thank you for taking the time to read this and I hope you find it helpful. As always, feel free to get in touch with any questions/feedback/comments, I always love to hear it. Stay tuned for the next instalment.

Until next time
