I'm beginning to realise that we are just chemical creations with the notion of consciousness. The doctors have been trying out different levels of medication on me to control my anaemia caused by excess bleeding. It's taken a while but I'm now near normal in terms of my iron levels, and my, what a delightful... Continue Reading →
Each day we are confronted with countless things that require our attention and that we have to make a decision on. To be honest, now as an adult I feel cheated at the sheer amount of opinions I'm meant to have about everything! No; I honestly don't care about the plethora of white available for...

Living in a country where healthcare isn't free scares me. I'm afraid as I have relied on medical professionals throughout my life, they are needed for me to function in society.

The idea that pride is a sin, at this moment doesn't make sense to me. How can it be a sin of itself? Pride for me comes after an accomplishment and should be enjoyed. It's a sense of relief, a joy radiating throughout the body and soul as you have done something positive. It is... Continue Reading →
