Greetings

Hello and welcome to my blog where you will find a collection of my poetry.

I've been writing for over twenty years and have many a handwritten notebook and A4 sheets. A notebook is never far away and even occupies a space on my bed as ideas come to me most when I'm trying to get to sleep!

I still frequently use a pen and paper despite being able to type really quickly as I find the words come to me at any time. This is one of many blogs I write to help and support people.

I am what you might call a hypersensitive. I feel the pain and suffering in the world. My body feels physical pain when others are in pain and joy when others are happy.

I tingle when I see someone overcoming their nerves to do perform and admire them greatly wishing I was so brave. That is not to say that I am not brave, I'm just not ready to be the performer I would love to be - my mum is currently the only person who's functions I perform at.

I regularly feel out of place in this world because I care too much but use my gift of writing to help inspire and uplift all those I come into contact with that want it.

I say that because not everybody wants to change their situation, many are just happy moaning about it. But, for everyone who does want help or advice there isn't much I haven't experienced. It keeps me going to think that using my experiences to help other people is the reason so many 'bad' things happen to me.

I am a Virgo, we love to make things perfect and we love to help people and fix things. Our intentions are always good. I don't follow horoscopes but there are undeniable characteristics shared between Zodiac signs once social factors like family, friends and environment have been taken out of the equation.

Although I do not follow any religion I did have a religious upbringing and have taken those values throughout my life. I use my writing to provoke thought and consideration of others, to educate, inspire and provide hope for people who need it.

Hope you enjoy it!
