Changes

Hello. My name is Gilly and I'm a Gemini.

You get 2 for 1 with me. Apparently I'm gentle, adaptable and affectionate. I'm also nervous, inconsistent and indecisive. I like music, reading and chatting. I dislike being alone and being confined. It's fascinating because I do agree the all the Gemini traits though I certainly don't read my daily horoscopes as that would be mental. So I've looked up another random zodiac sign - I'm loyal and sympathetic but I'm insecure and suspicious! This is me too! So is that me proving zodiac signs are rubbish? I don't know but I do have faith. The above is just a tiny snap shot. The more I read the more I believe!

Everybody knows they should count their blessings. And whilst we may not go to bed and write down 3 positive blessings from the day, I think we all know what's good in our lives and what's bad. I have often felt very lucky - my family who are healthy and love me, extended family who are well and and love me, some brilliant and loyal friends who love me, my gorgeous dog (you've guessed it) who loves me! Family, friends and pets whom I love. A job I love, holidays and a home I love. Now if I was to lose any of the above then I guess my job is the best option. I've had a harsh and disappointing few weeks. My job has been snatched from me due to no fault of my own. I've cried and been angry but acceptance is a blessing!

Part of the process of getting from sadness and frustration to acceptance and contentment has been scrutinising other elements of my life. I have some family members and friends who are having a tricky time of it and supporting them, mainly through chat (see Gemini above) has a therapeutic affect on me and my issues. I've been looking closely as my relationships - who of my mates/acquaintances are actually genuine and loyal (see wrong sign above - it's Cancer btw)? I'm very happy to say that I have some amazing friends. The comfort they have given me is priceless! Others may slip into the other category which is also very needed and necessary for me, and I'm not dissing this. And a few will slip away and I suspect neither of us will notice.

I thought you'd like to know that I raised £150 for Macmillan through my coffee afternoon! Whoop whoop!

Gemini are a perfect example of the golden rule. They will treat people how they want to be treated until you give them a reason not to.
