From as far back as I remember, my mom used to quote the Serinity Prayer. Even though I knew the words however, the real impact is only coming through now. An ex boyfriend of mine even gave me a fridge magnet with these words on it, which is still sitting on my fridge. Maybe it’s that old ‘can’t see the woods for the trees’ thing, but lately, serinity is something I have been thinking about a lot. For a very …

It’s funny how some songs take you back. Like watching a music video of life flashing past… all those moments, experiences and memories. Sometimes I think that it will always be …
September has always been one of my favourite months. It was this time last year that I made one of the biggest and most rewarding leaps of faith ever, to go freelance again.
