As I think about today’s blog topic, I realise I don’t want to write more about Susanna and Michael, etc. Instead, I will focus on someone who helped me several years ago when I first left my marriage.

When I left my marriage and moved to Sunbury I was in the depths of despair over the ending of my marriage and I knew I had to find work,  to get myself back on my feet financially after my husband had caused me a lot of debt.  I was having trouble getting out of bed every morning 🌄 and found it hard to face the world 🌎.  I knew I had to find work, and to that end, I went to a local service that found work for people with disabilities.  I had a wonderful worker there to whom I confessed about my difficulties with facing the world . She was wonderful, and she taught me to fake it until you make it.  She taught me to do little things that made me feel I could face the world again, eg, spraying a little perfume every morning,  putting on nice clothes and a little makeup. She taught me that if I tried to present to the world as a functioning successful woman, then ultimately, I would become so and wouldn’t have to fake it anymore. And you know what. She was right. With this ladies help I put myself out there and found the best job in mental health that I ever had and within months I became happy and contented and was able to put my marriage break-up in the past and move on a much more happy and enlightened lady. So there it is. Fake it until you make it. A philosophy to live by with the right support and attitude.
