The day I reached a year...

This is the final secret of my one year project - I hope you like it. I am so happy to have reached a year of blogging but for me the real celebration is that I have made a secret every single day for a year. I am so grateful to everyone who reads this, sends me lovely comments and is supportive of what I have achieved over the last year. Blogging each day had helped me connect not only with family and friends but also with complete strangers about some of my most difficult secrets. It has also given me a chance to rediscover my love for art and to actually use so many of the different things I hoard. More than anything this project has encouraged me to discover things I didn't even know about myself. I have so many more secrets than I ever thought possible and this whole process has been like a year long therapy session for me. I have learnt to come to terms with each secret - and in most cases to let go of them, forget them or even accept them. Each secret acts as a little gateway back to a certain feeling or situation and I am so lucky to have a whole year of them to reflect on. Thank you again for all the support and kind words over the last year - you really are the reason why I think I have been able to keep this up. My plan for Amelia Is... now is to keep on blogging but to make secrets as and when they come to me rather than a single secret every day. I hope that this will give me a bit more freedom and probably allow me to do a little bit more creatively. This week I plan write some more about the last year and what has been going on - so watch this space. I hope this year has been as exciting for you as it has been for me, enjoy!
