Hello and welcome everyone, my name is Andy, I am 28 years old and have decided to create this blog to talk about the many topics that we get involved in through our lives. These topics will mainly include my interests, which will become apparent the more I post these. It is mainly going to be about my day to day life but it will include one of my main passions which is photography. I will post a selection of photos which I have taken, and this will probably be about the subject matter.
Anyway, I chose upon the name "Lost and Confused" because I find myself sat in the middle of a state of depression, which is at the forefront of my life at the moment. It is leaving me with a sense of being lost and confused, I hope to use my blog as a form of therapy and to hopefully communicate with people about how I am in myself and how I see the world around me. Being in the position I find myself in, I do find it hard to say exactly what is rolling around in my head, so I thought it best to make this blog so I can be more vocal without actually having to say anything.
My main goal for this blog is to share my photos and my view on the world, but to also try and reach out to like minded people who will not judge and not be opinionated about my illness. I know we all have our opinions but if my point of view can be heard and understood by at least one person then I will consider this venture a success. Even if only one person reads this and thinks it isn't a load of nonsense then I will be a very happy man
So, onto our first Photograph, the below image was taken at a local spot near my house that I love to go walking around. It is an old pit site, which has been converted into a country park since the pit closed and was demolished in 1992. A main feature of this park is a monument statue to commemorate the local pit sites that have been demolished over the past few decades. This statue, named "Testing for Gas", stands on top of the highest man made point in Nottinghamshire. As the photo shows it is an amazing sight at the moment of a sunset.
I hope to post regularly, maybe twice a week to keep this blog going. I am very happy to receive feedback
Thank you for taking time out to read this and I hope to gain your views over the following and upcoming blogs

ReplyDeleteA beautiful photo.
ReplyDeleteGreat idea to do a blog. I did a blog to give myself some focus to my thoughts and, with luck, this will do the same for you.
Good luck and best wishes.
Love it. Amazing picture, it seems full of light and hope as well.
ReplyDeleteBlogging does help when you are depressed and is also a great way to see how far you have come.
Good luck x
This is a great idea for you. I had the same sort of things going on a couple of years ago. I didn't feel I could talk to anyone and it was effecting all aspects of my life. I blogged about my life as a chef, which was one of my main issues, as my business was failing.
ReplyDeleteNow I feel much better and I'm trying to change my situation in life. On my second blog now! www.mysirensongs.com and loving it.
Good luck Andy, I'm sure this will help you. I'll be keeping an eye on your blog updates.
All the best
RJ
