Today I did something scary. I admitted to a friend I wanted to be a writer. And here I am admitting it again. It’s a big day for becoming Lucy. When I admitted it, I was instantly reminded of something I saw the other day – if you want to be something, but already do…

Lately I’ve been noticing my patterns and how I respond to certain things, specifically around being supported and being seen. I crave being seen. It has taken a lot of internal work to realise that is what I want, what I need. I find myself seeking it in people I love, in people I know…

I burnt myself in the shower today.Not by accident.I got in and turned it up.Slowly.Gradually.It got to the perfect temperature.Then I asked what if I kept going,so I did.When the water touched me next,I couldn’t feel it.It was so hot, it was cold.Numb.My skin felt fine.But underneath the surface,it screamed.I wondered if it was a…

I’ve been listening to a lot of NF recently… I know, that tells you a lot about where my head and heart is at. Not sure what I’m to say about that, or why I felt the need to share. I needed to write tonight – I have nothing to write about but everything is…

A calling. It has been on my mind for a month now. I saw a video from one of my favourite creators, not knowing their calling,I realised I don’t know mine. I have never known what I was meant to do. Where I am supposed to go. Who I’m supposed to be. I feel so…

I’m just not sure today. I need to write because the thoughts feel like they are stacking up again (it has only been two days since I last wrote) but I’m not sure what I want to write about or what I need to write about. I feel like I’m waiting for something to happen…

I couldn’t write last night. I didn’t feel as though I had anything to say which is funny because I spent the whole day with the giggles. I spent the whole day catching myself laughing over absolutely nothing which is such a contrast to how I’ve been recently with this ache, the pull in my…

I just turned the music up in my headphones to avoid feeling, to stop thinking. Of course it didn’t work, the thoughts just got louder. They don’t want to be silenced now that I understand them. My head and heart are finally speaking the same language and they refuse to be silenced. This isn’t something…

So this week I wrote about not really being ready for the end of the year or ready to close that chapter of my life yet – how I feel like I’m still searching for something else but having no idea what it is I’m searching for. I’m still clueless sadly. This won’t be a…
