All good things come to an end.

It has been a year and a half since starting “Daily Bizness – Starting Over” and the purpose of this blog was to provide me with a platform where I could open up, unpack and process the deep anguish I felt for a long time.

My sisters were really worried about me when my Mum died. I had already experienced a huge life changing set of events just before she passed and her departure was almost more than I could handle. I withdrew, I was angry, resentful and not honest with my own feelings, I wasn’t mentally well at all. My sisters urged me to seek counciling which I really didn’t want to do but I knew I had to do something so I picked up my phone and started pouring my heart ache onto my screen.

It was raw, it was public and it was effective. The public nature of it helped me stay accountable and when I felt so alone the support I received, even from complete strangers or people I never really speak to really helped me get through some of the toughest parts. It helped me talk indirectly to my loved ones too, it let them know where I was at without having to face them and make them feel akward for having to listen to me.

The impact of using this tool to get through the hardest part of my life, to date, is something I cannot to put into words and today I am glad to say I am ready to retire it.

The exercise of reporting my feelings in their rawest form has served it’s purpose in far more ways than I had ever thought it could. It has not only given me an effective outlet but has also allowed me to achieve a real sense of perspective and a very clear and sometimes in your face time line of my progress as time went on.

I have realised that I have had less and less desire or need to unpack my emotions and thoughts using my blog now days. I am proud to say I am in a healthy frame of mind where I can deal with my emotions effectively without the help of this incredible therapudic tool.

I still love to report on my world and put my thoughts and experiences on the screen and plan to start something new where I can talk about my up coming adventures with Caleb and all the great things I plan to do with my future. The plan is to discover Austrlaia now that (for now anyway) the borders are open and local tourism is on the up and I am so excited about travelling overseas again eventually.

I have a new job that will allow me to afford taking all the adventures I want and I can’t wait to begin. All good things come to an end and this blog was the best thing I have really ever thought of doing for my mental health. It was a very good thing but it is definitely a great feeling putting it to bed.

So, farewell “Daily Bizness – Starting Over” and welcome to whatever I choose to name the next, much happier one.

Peace ❤
