2016 is one of those years that most people won’t want to talk about. We had Brexit, Trump, and a string of celebrity deaths. But I’m not one to be negative….all of the time. There are some thing’s that happened to me in 2016 that were good. And I’m going to share them with you in the hope that it will help inspire you to reach for the stars.
The last time I went to see my mother-in-law she was stressed. When I walked into the house, she didn’t look up from the mountain of paperwork which lay around her. She flicked between different bits of paper, muttering under her breath, completely consumed with the task at hand. When she did finally look up, it was not to say hello to me or give her grandchildren cuddles, she looked to her husband and said “How far can Matthew walk?”
I’ve known for a while that I don’t like people but sometimes things happen that make me really dislike them. I would go as far as saying I hate people sometimes. I knew when I became a writer that it could be lonely locked away, writing my woes of the world down. Probably complaining at some point about being lonely. Then this week happened.
