Hello lovelies, I hope you have all had a fabulous week and have a lovely relaxing weekend.
When I got home from school yesterday I made a cup of tea, grabbed a few biscuits, my laptop and loaded up iPlayer. I browsed down the top 40 most popular programmes and one of them caught my eye. It was called 'The C Word' and it was a drama of Lisa Lynch's life and how she fought cancer by writing a blog. It may sound all upsetting and emotional but in fact I didn't come away from it with floods of tears. I came away inspired. I don't want to tell you all too much about what happens in the programme in case you decide to go and watch it (which I highly recommend you do!) but the programme made me realise the great suffering which many families go through linked to cancer. It also made me realise how lucky I am and I never want to forget that little fact. When you sit in exam or sit in your bedroom after a bad day and think the world is ending, you need to remember the positives in life (I know very cliche) but honestly I find sometimes I forget the big things and worry about the little things. Even if at the time you think "I have no positives' remember your friends, family, pets or maybe a holiday you are looking forward to or maybe the fact you can go home and watch Netflix in a couple of hours.
I'm definitely not an expert on expressing words of wisdom but I just think it is so important sometimes to just reflect and remember. I really want to start doing more posts like this so if you have any 'words of wisdom' please do leave them in the comments, I always love hearing what you have to say.
Thank you for reading,

I agree so much Scarlet!! I loved this post. I've gone through a lot of loss in the last month or so and it was absolutely horrible, but it made me not sweat the small stuff so much and appreciate the good days by realizing how thankful I was. Also I realized how much my family and friends truly care about me in that time when I needed their love the most. I loved your view point in this post and your blog is fabulous. I'm definitely going to keep visiting to read! Hope you're having a good week! :)
