Relaxation
What a strange idea. Finding a spot within your own head and looking for some peace.
Wow.
I haven't found the time to look for a place in my own head for a long time.
I don't know what's up there. All that space to think. Hmmm.... even thinking about it makes me anxious.
Every mediation book speaks about finding the space in your own head where it's comfortable - I'm too afraid too even start looking.
I've never tried yoga, mediation or anything like it. I don't have the time.
Everyone tells me that it would be good for me but finding the courage to start is hard.
Maybe its time to gather some space for me. I want some space in my own head. A place I can retreat too and call my own.

Another day in the office (home)
Another day in the office.
Wake up, feed the kids, dress the kids, kiss hubby goodbye, clean the house, have coffee with friends, play with kids, clean kids, cook dinner, sit on the couch in a heap.
Sounds like a good day, right?
Well, it should have been. Its the sort of day I always wanted as a Mum. The perfect life.
But today, again, it felt like something was missing. Today it just did not seem the same.
I don't know what it is.
I don't know whats missing.
Some little part of me has slowly disappeared into nothing over the past few years. Now I am a Mum, a wife, a friend but I'm not sure who I am to me.
If I sat myself down in a room with no windows, who would I be?
How would I describe myself?
I don't know.
But I really want to find out.

Mum trying hard!
I am perfect.
Well, I should be.
Every article in every magazine says I should be.
All my friends appear perfect.
But, sadly, I'm not.
Nope, not even close. Not even on the same page as perfect. Very, very far from it.
I am a Mum of two young children (under 4) and I think I have everything I ever wanted.
I have great kids, a good husband, a good circle of friends and a great house. Yes, it all appears perfect.
But something is missing.
And I don't know what it is.
What good possibly be missing?
Really?
No magazine has ever told me what is missing.
I'm now on a journey to find out what it is, so join me on my blog and help me out :)
