A Big Thank You

The other evening I was watching a programme called 'The Gift' that is currently viewing on BBC. It's a programme where people can reach out to someone they want to say thank you or sorry to. It really touched me and it made me think about all those I would like to say thank you to, those who have made me become the person I am today. Not only that but in the past few months I've been going through a lot of emotional stress alongside anxiety due to events which I talked about in this post and I've needed people around me more than ever before.

I thought I would trace back to my childhood and think about those who helped me with my first stepping stones in life.

I would love to say a huge thank you to;
- the teaching assistants at middle school who gave me somewhere to feel safe from bullies and belong, they also gave me a sense of purpose at school by giving me responsibilities and new friends.
- to the coaches at Stage Coach who helped me build confidence through performing. This helped me so much in standing up to those who put me down and ever since I have also been the biggest chatterbox!
- to the counsellor who helped me getting through recent events and supported me in my fight to get safety shutters on my bedroom window.
- to my friends who have stuck by me through thick and thin! You're amazing and I love you all to pieces.
- to my family, what could I do without you? You brought me into the world, given me amazing experiences, raised me in a happy and homely environment and supported me through everything!
- and to basically anyone who has opened up opportunities for me to be a part of.

I know this neither a fashion or beauty post but it's definitely something that I think everyone should do. Some of those who helped me through my life probably don't know how much they have meant to me and I wish for some day that they'll see this post and it'll make them smile.

I'd love to see other people write a post like this so I thought we could make this into a tag, simply with the title, A Big Thank You. I'll message some people who I'd like to see do this tag and if you want to do this on your blog then go ahead and send me your post links when it's up!
