I feel like im at this time of my life when its time to start new and makes things fresh again. A lot of things have happened the last few months, mainly the death of my Mum. Im now at the point where im finally getting over it and getting my head together. Along with that some other things have changed and i feel like its time to make start everything over and make a new me. Or something like that. Im not that good at typing it out but it makes sense to me. Kind of starting anew, starting fresh.
Anyone ever done this? Tell me your stories.
 
I think everyone goes through some kind of reinvention at some time in their life, though not under such difficult circumstances. When I wanted to make a radical change the main things I did were starting a sport and going out more. Playing for a club is unreal, you meet a load of new mates and there's nothing like the camaraderie you have with your teammates in a competition. Even a non-team sport (like fencing for me) has that when you go to an away event with the club, all your pals are on the sidelines cheering you. There's usually a social side to a sports team as well, nights out, BBQs etc.
 
While I do think 'everyone' goes through that, it really only has actual meaning to certain people. I've not reached the point where I can say I'm letting the ghosts of my past be that, I hope someday I'll be able to say that and just "breathe" for a while.

I'm proud of you, though, Lewis. A definite lot of ups and downs.
 
Good luck, Lewis. You deserve it.

I would say I've kinda been trying this the past couple of years, probably starting with changing my career path from Education to Nursing. And the past year, dropping the relationship I regretably drug on too long (please no comments). I've been stumbling with this and not making huge changes, but I start at a new college in the fall, so hopefully, if not in the sumer, by the fall, things will really change for the better. Cutting habits, things, people; whatever it takes.
 
I think youv just gotta go for it Kylie. Im so close now to having all my things sorted with my house and mortgage, insurance and my loan. The last year has been pretty sucky but im feeling much better about things now. The time just feels right to re invent myself or something like that. Gunna start doing things more often that i enjoy and having a lot more fun in life. When i look at the last few years i havent been enjoying myself as much as i should. Even without all the stuff that happened i still should have been doing more. Its not all been bad though, far from it. Ive had some brilliant times with some amazing people and i wont ever forget them. But now its time to move on.

I got the thread title from doctor who. Im not a doctor who fan at all. Infact i dont like it whatsoever but the doctor when he dies or whatever it is he regenerates into a new person. Or something like that.
 
You know you're in a bad position in life when you're afraid to tell people about a situation you are in because its "too negative".

Whatever happens, happens. This so called "things will get better" - I'm still waiting.

There isn't much for me to change about myself, although I want to re-establish myself as a humanitarian/listener/samaritan.
