Well, I stopped blogging because the 3 positives got me through some disappointment. Now I'm back because I need them to get me through some SERIOUS disappointment. I didn't get on the doctoral training course this year. Gutted. But, in some ways, I'm not really sure I believe I ever will. I almost don't even want to try anymore, but think I owe myself one more shot!!!
So, after that enormous blow, I have to find 3 positives:
1. All the people who matter really believe in me and my boss said today it would be a travesty if I didn't. That confidence is what's driving me forward to continue to pursue a place on the training.
2. I actually had a pretty good day until the end. It was interesting, busy, I got my curry ....
3. I have all my health etc. Thinking about people like Edgar and the boy Peter was talking about earlier who essentially only has half a brain left reminds me how lucky I am and how living in the first world has taught me to have first world dreams forgetting about how lucky and privileged I already am.
