Hey everyone,
It's no secret I have not been around in a while.. my apologies. Let me catch you up - the Pandemic happened and I found a couple of new hobbies.
HappyHousing was born and is getting raised by the minute. We went on a whole series of adventures last year, I can't wait to write all about them.
I learned a lot about myself and how to become the person I have always focused toward being, and it's going well so far, I'm making great progress.
So today, I wanted to talk about somethng different. A lot of my writing has been in the form of poetry over the years but if there is anything I have learned most about myself it's that I kind of see things with rose-tinted goggles, romantising life. I realise my view is my art - I think Shane taught me that. He doesn't take many photographs (and I always complain about it), but when he does, they are spectactular. I mean, they're from his angle, his perspective and they're worlds apart from the photograph I take of the same thing or the same moment. My point is my outlet is not only poetry, it's in my love for talking pictures, it's in my work, my friendships, my games and my stories.
With that in mind. It's important to note that while I have been absent from writing on my blog, I have maintained my micro-blog on Instagram, published in a series of poetry anthologies, went on many adventures and made and strengthened relationships. I have found my voice, my anger, my sadness, and laughter. I have reflected on the experiences, missed those who have moved away or passed on, and looked to the future.
I am slowly working toward just being in the present, and day by day, it becomes a reality.

I am in my 20s, and I am super excited to be in my 20s, in the 2020s haha.
