About Me

My photo
Well, where do I start? I could start at many stages in my life; all very exciting and adventurous in some sort of way. Probably best to start when I met my husband 10 years ago, as this was the turning point in my very emotional and dramatic life. Met Ben through work, we had a wonderful life together, very ambitious, career driven until we decided to started a family 4 years later. The fertility Journey did take 2 years to conceive but we got there eventually and conceived little Thomas, now for someone like me who has no patience what so ever this was a agonizing and stressful wait but well worth it. We moved from our home town Bournemouth to Ipswich with Ben's work, I gave up my careern and then married in Cumbria in 2009. We continued to have 2 more children very easily compared to Thomas, Jesiica and Baby Wilson.
One of the main reasons I have set up this blog is to gather advice and information on how I can be guided through my Journey into Christianity. "We need others around us who know Jesus. Who want God to influence their lives", "The Spiritual Starter Kit" Lesson # 5 - The value of other believers.
I am not perfect nor do I want to be, I am not here to change the world, or the way people think. I am just here to be happy and put the past behind me, wash away all the pain and view the world differently to the way I see it today. I want to be happy in no matter what I do, feel completeness and at peace with the world and admire all the beautiful things it has to offer me, my family and all my beautiful friends. I know this can happen it is just a matter of believing!


Please, I urge you to join my site and welcome any thoughts you may have or advice that will help me on my way! This site would not work without your input. Please note I am dyslexic, so, if anyone wishes to volunteer to edit my posts, by all means feel free.

Concentrating on the Positives not the Negatives.

I love this site and this lady, I have only been reading her blog for the last 2 days, but I am already hooked and in love with her beauty and happiness for life.

She has 10 steps to finding your happy place, please click on Galen's blog link above to view. I am going to start with one of them this week. Hope you do not mind Galen Pearl.
Gratitude, I am going to try to live, breath, read and write about it the same as Galen did, see if it has any significant improvement on my negative feeling and train of thought.
Wish me luck starting with church tomorrow. x
Continuation......


Found this great site which discusses Positives taking place of Negatives. Thought I might share with you. http://www.bible-knowledge.com/renewing-of-your-mind/

"Once you know the Bible tells you to have self-control over your bad temper (just going to butt in here, boy oh boy oh boy, I have a terrible temper and my children and husband gets the brunt of it) and over your condescending and critical attitudes – then it will be your job at this point to make some kind of concerted effort to actually “put away” these kinds of negative and destructive qualities from your personality."

Physical and Mental Abuse in childhood

I came across this website tonight and found it very true, while I am not quite ready to deal with these issues as yet I thought the following words describe what I seem to try and tackle all the time.
Rossocomedy states on the Daily Strength Webiste "Good grief Charlie Brown! Punishment of children with beatings and humiliation like this do more than inflict pain on the body, they strip away self esteem, and inflict a lifetime sentence of damage to the victim"
I never want to be classed as a victim but I would so agree with the stripping away of self esteem, boy, oh boy, oh boy, I so have issues with self esteem. I can totally understand why now after reading this article.

It will be very interesting to see what Christianity has to say about this subject, another time perhaps.

How I feel today!


This is all I have to say about today and how I feel. I will explain why another day!! Thought this was quite appropriate. makes me feel much better.
1 Corinthians 13:4-8
New International Version (NIV)
4 Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. 5 It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. 6 Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. 7 It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.
8 Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away.

Please God, I pray, guide me and give me the strength to learn patience, not an easy task for me and my soul, but I am learning fast. A Men.
