365 Days of Positivity - Days 1-7

Everyday for the next 365 days I am going to write something positive about myself. Whether something I like about my body, a talent, an achievement, anything!
Everytime I'm feeling down, I go to this collection and randomly choose one. I will then have to write about it until my mood has improved - I can only write about it in a positive way and hopefully this results in a more positive happier Coralee.
Whenever my depression, anxiety etc gets bad, I let it take over, I barely make it through those dark times, but some certain people have helped me through each of these times and I have so much to thank them for.

I believe I owe to the people who have helped me survive this far, to do everything I possibly can to make myself a happier, person; to create the opportunities for me to be happy, to make it through, and not always rely on others to get me through the dark, tough times.


The above photo is what I wrote for day 1. Along with it, I said this Today is step one, starting with something small.
I have so many people to thank for making it to this day, so many people who have helped me through the tough and the not so tough and so many people who have inspired me to take on a journey of positivity to help myself.

Day 2!
I decided to write this, particularly because I often get so upset about the things that get in the way of me achieving my dreams. But look, I've gotten this far! That obviously means something. This is a good reminder, that even if it takes longer than I hope, I will achieve my dreams. 

Day 3.
Sometimes I need to remember that my of my strongest points in my personality is my passion. If you start talking to me about a topic I'm passionate about, I will not shut up, especially if I'm trying to make a point about that topic. I want people to listen, and to think and I believe that that is a very special thing.


Day 4.
I really do enjoy cooking, and that's going to help me so much through life. I can cook from just about anything, so when life brings me minimal food, I will be able to help my tastebuds survive. 


Day 5.
My family have done so much for me, they are always trying to help me achieve my dreams, they are always supporting me, looking out for me and looking after me. My brothers and my sister are beautiful people, and I would never give them up for anything.

Day 7
Cello is definately something that makes me who I am. I've always loved it, I've always clung on to it, it's always been what makes me happy. Exploring life with my cello is something that's held me together for a long time.
And the only reason I am able to say this, is thanks to some amazing people who have helped me grow on the cello so far in life. Thank-you.

Day 7
Writing has given me such a big opportunity to express myself. Not only has it helped me through the tough, it also has helped me understand the good, and remember the great. If I didn't have the encouragement from my friends and family to start writing again, I probably wouldn't be writing positively for 365 days.
