Depression.

So I haven’t ‘blogged’ in ages. I shouldn’t even have the cheek to think this is blogging. It’s twitter without the character limit, or Facebook without the likes. You essentially are talking to a brick wall.

 

My e-mail pinged me a message to say I have a new follower (hi!)    That gets me to the grand total of… 1. Sussing this blogging game out like a good’un. Anywho tonight I thought id write about depression, being the first Monday back after christmas.

 

People definitely know what day it is today. My feeds have been brimming with people ‘not even knowing what day it is’ and ‘eating chocolate for breakfast’ all christmas, but that went out the window like a sack of shxt today. Its Monday 5th January. 2015. Alarm on. Back to the day job.

I was having tea with my cousin the other day, and we came to the conclusion that we had so much more to give to the world than doing the bare minimum and watch clocking (Watch clocking?! Bringing me on to my next line smoothly..).

We aren’t built to be eggs.

We don’t want to be safely tucked away in a box of 12  (9 – 5ers) that want to do the same in and out for the stability. We want to be the eggs that got away; the eggs that turned chicken run and made a path of their own. Clock clock.

 

However as a girl in her early 20s – Is this doable if you aren’t Alan Sugar or Richard Branson? If you have the burning passion to make something you can call your own but you don’t actually have a single burning passion to envisage it around? Is it even possible if you didn’t drop out of college, because that seems to be a craze too.

Depression. When you think of life – When you think of positive thoughts and good places that make you feel warm and happy inside. I liked owning a horse when I was younger. I can’t afford that now. I liked doing the ALS ice bucket challenge when my mum forgot to press record. (I actually did – funniest video to date). But what about the present. What about now. 

Anyway. A non-concise, airy read for you all; exactly what the blogger instructions told me not to do.

Taa for now.
