When you're heading to the end of one year and the beginning of another it can get a bit overwhelming. It's hard to think about time in 'year long' chunks.
I know everyone has a different story to tell on here but there are things we share. Mostly we all experience some degree of fear and loneliness...I guess it's what draws us to share our innermost thoughts and feelings.
I also think there is real comfort in knowing that the fact we share these things means we're not alone. No matter how debilitating our situation, there is always someone to reach out to.
In my consideration of the new year, I am going to face 2013 bravely, conscious that there probably will be ups and downs (many of us are familiar with blipville right?) but there are also things that can really help. Like remembering it will pass when you're in the thick of the storm, knowing that there is a powerful network of supportive, reassuring help at hand and trying to be a little kinder to myself.
On that note I just wanted to send a little note of gratitude in return for all the times I've asked for help and never failed to be reassured by lovely, restorative messages. I can't tell you how much it helps and how wonderful you all are. Go bravely into 2013 and remember we're in this together.
