When I first started writing for The CP Diary 13 years ago, it was a completely different world. It was easier to write about my thoughts and feelings and to introduce different topics to my blog so that my blog could appeal to a wider audience.
Our lives were easier. The external influences were different. Politics was different. It didn't feel exhausting all the time. My life was easier. Over the years, the feedback for my blog has been immeasurable. I am grateful for such wonderful, positive feedback.
But the world has changed, life has become more difficult and writing in 2023 has become hard, it's easier to have the truth picked apart and scrutinised. Writing the facts and the truth is never easy, I write both and it's uncomfortable.
I appreciate it's difficult for readers to read the facts, particularly around the external influences I talk about, but the facts are important because they shape our future. It is important to keep reading.
We have insight and insight is important because it helps us to change the way we perceive our world and our decisions. My writing mirrors the universal truths, which affect us all. I keep going because it's good for my mental health.
Good people meeting with bad luck
The 60 million dollar question. I'm putting it out there, because it's already out there. Why is it that bad people seem to come off well and good people who tell the truth, struggle with endless bad luck and I include myself here? In 2023, the good people are having their voices drowned out.
Why are good people having their voices drowned out?
My own thinking is good people are being penalised, because being bad, immoral, is more on the rise. You're seeing it play out on centre stage, in politics.
Politicians are failing to be open, honest and transparent
If you look at what's happening in politics, politicians are not being open, honest and transparent on how they go about their political life, their decisions, but one thing is clear, their decisions are having a negative effect on our lives and our lives are now the poorer for it.
