Today

I learnt a lot today.


I learnt that a human being can cry an unimaginable amount of tears.


I learnt that boys get uncomfortable when you cry.

I learnt that one simple act of kindness and thoughtfulness could save me from potentially undoing years of hard work.

I learnt that things can change, for better or worse, in a matter of minutes.

I leant that I am incredibly strong and immensely brave.

I learnt that life is unfair.

I learnt that M.E. is even more so. 

I learnt that I have too much respect for myself to give up now.

I learnt that I am incredibly lucky to feel that way.

I learnt that people cannot read minds; if I don’t tell them, they will not know.

I learnt that you won’t always get what you want.

I learnt that when you have M.E. this will happen a lot. 

I learnt that it’s okay not to be okay.

I learnt that deep down I know that I am doing the right thing; that sensibleness was the best path to take on the road to recovery.

I learnt that most of my real friends live inside my computer.

I learnt that my soul really is unconquerable just as I’d suspected. 

I learnt that the good will always outweigh the bad.


I learnt that sometimes you have to hit rock bottom.

I learnt a lot today.

Blogging about life in the slow lane with an invisible, chronic illness. I wasn't always a sick chick so this is somewhat of a life changing experience!
