"...people will paint you pictures about motherhood in rainbows;
You will forget that rain comes first. The brightness of that rainbow will always outshine the grey,
but it's OK to talk about the grey, you should."
Jessica Urlichs - Beautiful Chaos: From One Mum to a Mother
@ValmarieVal@OpenUniversity@OpenUniversity is incredible. With three children and a full time job and covid mixing things up, without the opportunity to learn in this way, I'd never had gained such an achievement!
@Cheviot04@OpenUniversity Amazing- keep going. I never thought I get here what with covid and a pregnancy half way through. I deferred for 2 years and thought I'd given up but I didn't. Keep going. Walking across that stage makes it all worth it โค๏ธ
Growth is similar to recovery...
It's unique to the person and can take on any shape and format.
Pausing is growth.
Reflection is growth.
Living life how you want is growth.
Your growth is how you define it - not how others perceive it!
