In the scheme of things, the probability of life starting on a planet has to be so astronomically small. The right combination of chemicals, living conditions etc all coming together, but here we are.
If we have no purpose then that is mind-depressingly numbing, all those very small probabilities, co-incidences whatever coming together to have even smaller chances of life existing and surviving meaning nothing? I like to think that there are reasons and that there are definite reasons why particular things happen or particular people come into our lives. And this means that I have as much right as anyone else of being here.
I refuse to be insignificant, to be an infinitely small probability (at least sometimes in my life).
The page above is from a small scrapbook I made to remind to believe in myself on days I found my courage slipping away.
This blog is dedicated to all those in need of that courage today.

Hi jewel,
Wonderful, inspirational post. Believing in ourselves and distancing ourselves from negative 'hype' is so vital in our onward journey to a better life.
Your courage and the courage of those who challenge negativity; are to be admired.
Thanks for sharing this, jewel.
In peace and respect, Gary x

Gary - thank you for your kind words. I did say in one of my last blogs I don't do compliments well, but I'll try my bow with the grace in which it is meant. Had my first assessment at Bucknall Hosp to see if they can help with my binge eating and maybe my mental health in general, and they want me to come back for a little more assessing. I'm hoping that this will give me the long-term help with me and my past that I so need and which has somehow passed me by so far. Luckily this is something the clinical psychiatrist picked up and mentioned so I am hopeful :)
