Who's this handsome beast then...?

Ok, i gotta say...I've been feeling pretty blue recently. Why? Well, life's changing, and no-one wants to change something when it's already pretty good, right? People from home getting jobs and moving on with lives, whether that's getting married or sorting out careers. And of course uni friends that have graduated are moving away, back home, to a new job. I really didn't appreciate this when i first came to Birmingham, but jees 3 years has flown by. I've achieved much (we all have), but i really wish i'd made more of it, particularly the initial months.

I felt the same coming to uni - "I don't want to leave home and friends and go somewhere new, life's great as it is". It took time, but i realised the new life was amazing too. And so it happens again. I hope i don't make the same mistakes again - there'll be new opportunities, new people, and those that i want to stay in touch with and see, i will!

Doesn't stop us from being down, nervous and unsure now though does it? "So little comfort in my loneliness" - ok, so gotta take comfort in something else...find it!

"Everything exists in limited quantity...especially happiness". Well balls to Picasso. He was an artist, not a philosopher. Find something - a song, a book, a cookie, a person, anything you can take comfort in or from, and hold onto it.
