I realised a few years ago just how much I'd been depriving that little girl of some of the simple pleasures in life. When I started to release some of the pressure and instead started to sprinkle little moments of joy across my days, I just got this intense feeling of relief. Like when you take off a pair of shoes that were just slightly too tight for your feet. Feeding my inner child's desires is now a non-negotiable, so thank you for this powerful message. We could all do with a bit more joy in our lives.
