Rockhall, The Roches.

A healthier me walked & climbed these rocks often.

For me Painting is not “remembering what I can’t do”, but
“honouring what shaped me, and still lives in me.”

It’s just no longer expressed through my legs & lungs. But by my hands.

Each season is a time for renewal. A time to prepare for the coming months to let go of the old & strengthen our mind,body & soul.
One day at a time is all we can ever handle.
So be gentle with yourself, bring love, kindness & compassion to all you do 🙏

Some days you just need a hug.. 🤗 🫂 🌲
it's small things that make memories.
Go make some 🙏
We did @tatton_park
Bearhunt. Even with #chronichealth issues if you take your time rest often it's surprising what might happen.

Catastrophic thoughts are dominant mostly. So having something to stand on, believe in, value most can often be what gets us through.. thinking about this, especially when not in panic mode, will help the mind remember this when it needs it . So cultivate faith in something 🙏

[1Clearhead @1Clearhead]

One day at a time.
One task at a time
One step at a time.
Our human bodies function this way too. One breath & one heart beat at a time.
remember this when juggling many activities.
How often have you been overwhelmed with all the jobs that need doing ?
Just do one thing 🙏

[1Clearhead @1Clearhead]

I needed to get this off my chest. How chronic illnesses can make me feel.
Daily I can face this but what gets me through is #Love #hope and #perserverance.. my family have been my rock & my compass..THANKS @11soniah . In my 57th year, I'm determined to change this picture🙏💓

[1Clearhead @1Clearhead]

Having Cfs & depression along with other health issues has often floored me.
But I'm slowly accepting that there are things I won't ever do again. But I'm also curious and hopeful for what's ahead.🙏

Just a reminder..
Although we are broken and this can feel irreparable if we pause ⏸️ to take a step back 🔙 maybe through the cracks we can see slithers of light 🕯️.. focus on this .. it may reveal a whole new perspective that brings hope and peace 🙏

Just a reminder
#mentalheath can be a challenge but remember you've come so far. 🙏

#Keepgoingforward and #Nevergiveup Have been my mantras through #MentalHealth & CFS.
I manage it now instead of It managing me. 👍
I've built #resilience With help from my family especially my wife. The mountain doesn't seem as big .
One step at a time 🙏
