So my aim on a Sunday is to have a day for me and seen as this is my new venture/ hobby/ focus, blogging is a good start!
‘A Sunday well spent, creates a week of content’ …
The tricky part is knowing where to even begin when blogging and then Timehop throws this little beauty of a memory my way! (Timehop - I love it because it gives me a daily trip down memory lane, from my last blog you will know why this is something I value)
The thing about life is that special moments in life soon become cherished memories. I now look back at this memory with a completely different feeling than I felt whilst stood in the photo. I now feel warmth, positivity, love and appreciation looking at this photo, however anyone close to me will know that this was not how I felt during this period in my life.
After spending two years of my life living on cloud nine planning, preparing, living and breathing my perfect wedding, having to pack up our lives, literally into boxes and move back in with my amazing parents, felt like the biggest come down in life. As a newly married couple, being refined back to the bedroom that I spent many a years planning for everything I had just lived, felt like a massive step back in life. All our money was being pumped into the house and having no money to spend always brings out my inner diva (ask the husband).
I felt like I was back to being the 14 year old girl planning a life rather than the 27 year old living a life. All I did was spend the time wishing time away and honestly being very ungrateful. What was the worst thing that was happening? Spending time with my amazing Mum and John? Having them wait on us hand and foot? Having our families store all our beautiful belongings, without any questions because they do everything in their power to help us? Having the opportunity to save money? (when does this ever happen in grown up life) or waiting for our beautiful home to be built?
I could scream now as I sit in the living room of my beautiful home. 'What were you thinking?’ 'Why were you so negative?’ 'Why wish away precious time?’
The reason for this, ultimately comes down for my need for perfection. What screws me up the most in life is the picture in my head of how it’s suppose to be! And at that time, my head and heart were telling me that newly married life doesn’t look like this!
Perfection … what even is this? But god damn it, this is what drives me, inspires me and excels me in life! Something I will in time delve into more.
But for today, I sit here looking at this photo, feeling very grateful for my life! Thank you beautiful memory for bringing perspective back into my life.
'One day, you’re planning for someday. And then quietly without even noticing, someday is today, and then someday is yesterday. And this is your life!’
