Don’t be afraid to Create Space for yourself today!
Hi... failte (Irish for welcome! and pronounced fall-thhha). I'm a newbie to blogging, here just over a year, but what a great year it has been! I've turned the corner to 50 recently and two things become more relevant...time and experiences! Material possessions are less important! Using time wisely and truly experiencing each day holds a new significance for me! If you wish..., a little of the back story... I''m blessed to be married to a kind and loving man for 28 years, we have two children now 19 and 21. As I approached 40 and searching for something more, whilst holding down my then part-time legal secretarial work, I trained as a voluntary adult literacy tutor, with the hope of helping adults improve their literacy skills and have a second, and better experience of learning! However, little did I think that wanting to help others improve their lives would see my own life improve beyond measure also! You see for years I found it difficult to know what to do as I watched our two children suffer at the hands of bullies. Their struggle began to change when I returned to education! Through education I slowly gained valuable knowledge, I grew in confidence and self-esteme and it had a ripple effect! By 2014, aged 47 I had completed a Higher Certificate in Literacy Development and a B.A. in Adult Education. I love my work as an adult educator, particularly when adults trust me enough to let down their defences and 'let me in'. Then I can help them by getting to know what makes them 'tic' and what 'lights their fire!'. As an added bonus along the way I've realised that I also have a love of writing and that writing is cathartic (providing psychological relief through written expression of built up emotions), both for my students and myself. This blog enables me to pursue that new-found interest and I've really enjoying reading your blogs, sharing comments, getting to know so many people and gaining new perspectives. I also like to share any little 'gems' of learning I've gathered along the way! Thanks for sharing your stories and for helping me realise that it is all possible...and that together we write a truly better story! Much love, Marie x

As long you act out of love , compassion and righteousness, everyone has the right to be and live the way he or she pleases …
It is a personal choice and free will to co-create with the omniscient and omnipresent divine…

I really like this Marie – thanks so much for sharing it! Holding onto things that don’t serve us tends to make us stagnant and hinders our ability to move forward. Creating some space for ourselves through releasing those things allows us to become who we really want to be. I hope you’re doing well and staying safe sweet friend. Hugs!

Very true Terri, we can too easily become stagnant! Here’s to continuing our growth towards the best version of ourselves. We are well and safe thanks Terri but new clusters and community transmission on the increase! I hope you are likewise taking care of yourself! Xx
