Introducing Cathartic-Ella
I can’t go back to yesterday because I was a different person then.
Alice In Wonderland, Lewis Carol
When you are young, you often get asked what do you want to be when you grow up? I can’t remember what I use to want to be, but I know where I am now is not the answer.
Hi, you can call me Cathartic-Ella. I am a 30 yr old who knows where she wants to be but hasn’t quite figured out how she is going to get there.
I have spent the last four years living in a haze and bubble, lost in the mundane day to day and not really moving in any direction. It was like ground hog day, repeat of the same.
I watched my weight grow, my social life dwindle and the fabulous-ness I was use to has been snuffed to movies on the couch.
Does it count as a mid-life crisis in your 30’s?
The prospect of waking up at 60 feeling the same has jarred my consciousness to a place of anxiety between action and habit. I am stuck, literally (thanks COVID) and every fibre of my being is fighting to inspire a change.
Time has escaped me and here I am looking to make my goals and dreams come true as I write to you from my one bedroom apartment in Melbourne, Victoria.
Chasing The Dream.
