New Year, New Resolutions

As we all know, the new year brings with it a chance to start anew;

the oh-so-cliche'd notion of a 'New Years Resolution', (you know- 'this year I will stop smoking, I will exercise more, eat less!') is a great way to get us to declutter and throw away old habits, old thoughts and old thinking patterns - even old clothes - and to start fresh. God knows I need to! That's why I decided to create this Blog.

The Modern Day Damsel is my personal blog which touches on love, life, beauty, and most importantly loving oneself.

I am very passionate about the plight of self-love.

It came out of a painful break-up; the loss of a job; a life of a dear friend and relative; and overall a loss of self and sense of direction.

I needed a place to vent and to heal. I believe that writing about your experiences - good and bad - and sharing these experiences, is the quickest, healthiest, and funnest way to self-healing.

I will talk to you more about these experiences I encountered in future posts, and how they spurred me on to this journey of incredible self-discovery.


But until then, let me sign off by saying thank-you for stumbling across this blog and that I really hope my stories will entertain you, captivate you, move and inspire you.

Much love,
