Sleeps with butterflies

I cannot see the outcome of the journey, but I can take the next step

About Me



A walking contradiction, a dreamer, loves to read, recovering, thinks too much, learning to accept my imperfections, flawed, woman, survivor, enjoying life. I believe life is about learning and we can learn the most from the difficult times, those times allow us to grow, to see things differently

My Interests

Rape and sexual abuse awareness, eating disorder awareness and recovery, movies, music, beautiful images, reading, trees, quotes, poetry, pondering life and generally thinking too much, Tori Amos, the occasional night out clubbing, my family and friends, butterflies, walking in secluded places, make-up, self help books, Sylvia Plath, being inspired, flowers, mental health and human behaviour, sleeping, day dreaming, sunny days, faeries, learning, boots and shoes, Austria, positive thinking, clothes, tea. Everything and nothing
