I’ve been wondering whether or not to say anything for a few days now. In times of ‘world events’ I’m usually one of the folk joining in on other people’s platforms, offering my love and support, not the one making a statement of sorts… But this time I’ve decided to do things differently.

We’re embarking on a new chapter together and life has changed so much since this time last year. I’m not usually very good at looking back and reflecting, but seeing as this is a natural phase of transition for me it feels appropriate - and September has that ‘new year’ feel to it doesn’t it?

The new year came and went and I’m just about getting started with my ‘resolutions’, or starting to think about them anyway. New Year’s is usually a great time for me to get going with fresh ideas, intentions and habits; but this year seemed to kick off with a sigh rather than the usual spark.
