I'm back

Dear Reader You probably thought I dropped off the face of the earth...I did feel as though I did that. For the past 2 months, I have merely been going through the motions of living. My life has gone through an irreversible change. My dad took ill again - this time, he landed in I.C.U. with acute... Sign in to see full entry.

Challenges

Dear Reader Looking back at all the challenges I've experienced through the years, I realise that they have all come to teach me something and to help me realise my own strength - a strength which I was not even aware I had. In the past two months, there have also been incredible challenges - my dad... Sign in to see full entry.

When you are committed and determined...

Dear Reader Have you had the experience of starting a daunting project, something that may seem unachievable? Not many people support you or believe in you. But when you get stuck in, grit your teeth and decide to do it no matter what, people gradually start supporting you...then the whole universe... Sign in to see full entry.

Balance

Dear Reader I feel as if an eternity has passed since I have communicated with you here on Blogit. There has been a pile-up of washing, dishes, other housework...and even tasks such as getting more sponsorships, working on the wording of my website and approving the editing of my book before it is...

Dear Reader In the space of the last few hours, I've broken every positive-attitude-rule I believe in. I allowed myself to respond negatively to the situation I'm in, and I exploded. I think I upset my mom, and now I feel really guilty. Part of my guilt is that at this moment, I don't feel grateful... Sign in to see full entry.

Miracles happen!

Dear Reader Last night as I was getting ready to write to you, a message popped up in my email inbox. I had contacted the president of a real estate company to sponsor our accomodation in Seattle - I received a reply from a broker in Seattle. Amazingly his daughter has a condominium close to the...

Moments in life

Dear Reader I am really tired right now - I rushed to fit my daily routine into less time since I was waiting for a call from my publisher, and I wanted to be prepared with all my questions. After his phone call, I felt reassured, and right now I am even more excited about my book and its potential... Sign in to see full entry.

Climbing the mountain...

Dear Reader I accomplished something today, and I feel good about it. I made a phone call for sponsorship to the president of a company. I got through to his executive assistant who told me to email her the details, and was very understanding and helpful. I will soon get some sort of response from... Sign in to see full entry.

Dealing with my emotions...

Dear Reader It has been a struggle to control my emotions today...being tired has a lot to do with it. However, on the whole life does look a lot brighter - I've discovered a way to raise money for our family to get to Seattle. Let me share with you how I kept my emotions in check today, dear...

The world as I see it...

Dear Reader Today has been a crazy day. I spent most of the day organising for our parcel of medical treatment (from the U.S.) to be picked up from Customs and couriered to us - I did this rather than relying on the South African postal system since it would save a few days of delay - we have two...
