Start Here

I was going to start writing a blog again when I had all my ducks in a row. I say again because I used to have a mummy blog. But right now my ducks are far from being being in row....they're more like all up in the air getting shot at from all angles and there are feathers everywhere. So I asked myself, why I did I used to write in the first place? My rule back then was that I wouldn’t edit. I would write and push post. Because this is about me conveying my thoughts in their purest and most authentic and me-human way. It’s not about being perfectly edited and cited (although years at law school has drummed that into me). Because what you loose with that is the truth. It becomes another intstagram post. It becomes a airbrushed version of reality.

And that brings me back the question of why do I write. It’s not about the amount of readers or followers or thumbs up I get. It’s about doing something brave, about being me, with no apologies, or references or certificates or shred of credibility other than exactly that - and actually that’s all that matters - this is me. And maybe someone will read this and realise that it really is about the journey and there is no right of wrong, it’s just living. You always hear about the success stories, but what about the lessons, the moments, the “hick-ups”, the breakups and downs. And do these not mean just as much! Yes they do. So I’m starting this blog now. Not after the finished product is standing on a glittery shelf for all to OOOOH and AAAH at. Because, who knows what that product will turn out to be or whether it will even stand on a shelf or whether it even exists. That’s what doesn’t matter. What matters is….well this….

So here goes...

This blog is about my ultimate passion - what is the meaning of life. As cliched as it sounds the journey to the answer is not an easy one. And I'm still on it! Hard! I could type the answer to you right here right now but it's not about understanding the words it's about feeling it, living it and truly knowing through every part of your being I'm not going to write about 10 steps to a better you, I'm not going to give you the magic bullet, this is about me writing about my experience, my awakenings, my aha moments and my moments of illusion and confusion. Because we are all in this together. We are all on our unique journey's towards....well let's find out...
