I am starting this New Year feeling very positive and optimistic, for the first time in ages I don’t feel I have to make the best of things.

In fact I feel that I have plenty, there’s Richie, our love for each other, that’s top of my list.

Our friendship, we enjoy each others company, and we always have something to discuss, lovely to have found such a good friend.

Feeling good about myself, understanding finally that while a fully functional body is a joy, being so extremely handicapped as I am doesn’t make me any less of a human being or a woman.

Glad I have managed to work it out for myself, with the help from all my friends, who are also on my list, friends are so important.

All the people I know mean alot to me, sadly some contacts have been lost people move away, its life.

Since I moved to Amsterdam, I met many lovely people but never made the same sort of close friends, like I did in England.

Maybe it’s the language and the culture, but whatever it is I am happy to have good friends here too.

Feels good a new year, I am looking forward, always forwards never looking back.
