It’s natural to feel lonely when you move to a new city, especially if you move alone and have to start all over again, it’s hard to make friends.

Slowly realising that I had lost my passion, the posts were few and far between and thats when I gave up.

10 Ways To Appreciate Others More

10 Ways To Appreciate Others More

I don’t know about you, but this year especially I have come to appreciate the people I have around me. With everything happening with the pandemic, it has reminded me that life is fragile and can be taken away at any moment. There is still so much turmoil and hate in the world, and I don’t think there will ever be a time where we are all unified as one race. But that doesn’t mean there aren’t things we can do to show our love and appreciation for others.
