Update.

OK, it has been a very long time since I posted anything here. I've been working on my life and learning how I can help others. Since the last post I have undertaken formal studies in Buddhism via Deakin university and also completed the Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction course (which I would highly recommend to everyone and anyone) and am just about start a masters in counselling at University of Canberra. really looking forward to that.

I have gained a deeper contentment with life, which is still full of suffering. But... I have come to accept this suffering for it is part of life. Anyone wanting to find a life without suffering is just kidding themselves. There is always suffering. Accepting this is half the battle with overcoming it for once you accept that I will get sick, I will grow old and I will die, you stop fighting it. You just start to live for the now and enjoy what you have.
