About Me


First of all, my name is Abigail Smithies and I am a 23yr old medical receptionist currently living in Nelson (the best part of New Zealand!).
Why, you may ask, does she have a picture of a horse when she is a medical receptionist? Good question! The answer lies within this blog.

Writing definitely helps clarify thoughts and bring order to the chaos that is often inside my brain! It's going to be happy, it's going to be sad, sometimes it will be deep, sometimes I might not say much at all, but at the end of the day, it is all about the journey and making the most of every opportunity.

I hope you guys will join me on this exciting journey called life!

The thing is, most people try to change what isn't within their control to change, and are left feeling stuck when it doesn't work. The key is to change what is within your bubble of influence.
