Thank you for this. I doubt if any of us look back and think we have become what we expected. We evolve and change. We react to life, people and experiences. And it's OK. As long as, along the way, we do as little harm as possible to ourselves and others. xx
Thank you, John, for sharing that incredibly moving song. It never ceases to amaze me how music can break through to our innermost core and lift us, if only for a few blessed moments.
Try anything by Sam Fender. Remember My Name makes grown men cry after the first few seconds. Spit Of You hits hard, as does People Watching, especially the video with Andrew Scott....and so on. He gets described as everything between a British Bruce Springsteen to a musical savant. Give his music a try. You won't regret it.
We all change. It is interesting to me that sometimes, the people that are closest to me do not see those changes. There is sometimes this stubborn mindset that everyone has changed and grown...except me. That I, for whatever reason, am incapable of growth and change.
And there we are. And there we will seemingly remain.
I lost myself when in my first marriage and having young children. In my second marriage I was with someone who really encouraged me and I found my self worth again and really grew to be the best me. I am alone now but happy with myself and happy with the lessons learned along the way. You have been on an adventure of learning about how you tick for the last couple of years and seem to be in a much better place now. Go John. That song was so good. Gigi

Owning change is always vital I think
