Life is full of twists

This time of year is a great time to reflect. I've certainly used the time wisely and am thinking about the year ahead, what I want to achieve and who I want to do that with.

I've been on a couple of dates with a great guy, and all I can say is that that is a great way to end the year as a single girl. Who doesn't want to spend time with someone who is intelligent, interesting and very attractive? I do. So, if it's a party or that, you know what I will be choosing every day of the week. Besides that, he finds me interesting and refreshing - can't say that I hate to hear that!

Life is full of twists and turns and they are all give us new perspective. With an abundance of love around us, which I am fortunate enough to have, I am more empowered than ever before to reach the peaks of my bucket list.

I am about to spend a month travelling overseas; Switzerland, Austria and Italy - all skiing. Then off to the US, my second home.

The realisation that the world is my home and not one particular place, has given me more freedom. There is nothing wrong with finding out that you love to travel a little more than most and you enjoy the company of people from all nationalities.

I'm taking into 2016 solid grounding, a positive attitude, kindness, and a few dreams. I've even given myself a few hard challenges, but I am determined more than ever to get through them.

There are only days left to the year, use them wisely. Make the most of the time and relationships you have with family and friends. Show appreciation to those around you. Share the love that you have in your heart without fear. And remember to think about those less fortunate. Make a difference. I know I will be.
