It has been quite a few days since I have wrote anything and I have just been caught up with endless work and deadlines. Life does really catch up with you sometimes. It has been quite a difficult week for many reasons and I realised I let it all get on top of me.

I have always been a worrier- worrying about every little deadline, what might happen in the future, what might happen if x, y or z happens. And in the end, it is all just pointless. My late father used to say to me, is worrying going to help? Of course it is not, so there is no point worrying about something you can not change.

I think that is the difficulty, a lot of things are out of our control. Since my father’s death, I have definitely changed my outlook on life. My worries are very different now, but I guess I have been an overthinker and that always comes out here and there.

I hope everyone has been well. I am really enjoying seeing the weather change. Although, I am going to miss the summer, I am liking these earlier sunsets and the feeling of the leaves changing and the crisp cold air in the mornings. I can not wait for Halloween, which is a time of year that I love.

With love,
