Okay, so today I came across this photo in Instagram.
Maybe I've got the wrong meaning but we're all entitled to our own opinions and this photo to me, speaks so many words which a lot of people probably feel at some point in their lives.
At the very left of the image it shows a young child/toddler with a big heart. This is because they have no understanding of the world and its reality and most of all their thoughts and feeling are not influenced or "poisoned" by others and therefore welcome everything with open arms and don't prejudge anything.
Their feelings and opinions are PURE.
As you can see the person getting older their heart gets smaller. This is because they become influenced by others and this is especially affected by today's society and wanting to fit in with the norms. This is really important to me, as part of the LGBT Community as we're a minority group and have to stand up and fight for what we believe in as we're not the 'norm'.
When the person is fully sized, on the far right hand side, I think this shows that the person has generated their own thoughts and feelings towards almost everything in life and will never open up to other people's opinions which maybe in turn might end up changing their own however they never allow for this as they're so stuck in their old ways.
This is just my interpretation. You may have your own and if so please share it. I'd love to see how other people interpret this photo. I felt the need to share this on my blog because it spoke to me really quite deeply, more than any other photo ordinarily does.

Hello everybody!
Welcome back to those of you who return every time to check out any new blog posts that I do.
One thing that might excite you is that I'm planning to do AT LEAST one blog post a week so keep your eyes well peeled as there might be some exciting ones and some less exciting ones but hopefully 1 of them will be interesting to you. Even if I just help 1 person that's all I really want.
So this blog post is an update on how I'm getting on at University.
If you didn't know, I'm at the University of St Mark and St John. It is a small Uni made up of around 2500 people and is situated on the outskirts of Plymouth (Britain's Ocean City).
University is hard I'm not going to lie to you but I am loving it at the same time. I've got myself involved in the football and netball teams so I'm pretty busy with those outside of lectures, practicals and seminars as football has 4 sessions a week and netball has 3. The work is okay however I'm currently writing an essay on how you teach people of different abilities how to jump and I have no idea if I'm doing it right so I'm going to see the course leader when I think I've finished it to ask if what I've done is correct.
Also, side note, referencing is a pain in the butt!!!!!!
I would just like to express that Uni is great and I already feel like I've grown as a person so much already in these 8 weeks. If you're reading this sorting out your Ucas form or deciding whether uni is for you or not, just really think about it. There's some great people here who have similar interests as me and everyone on my course is lovely! The only thing that I find really annoying at the moment is that 3 of my 8 house mates are really untidy and you can tell they're those type of people who had "mummy" do everything when they were at home and it's just annoying but you've just got to get on with it really.
If you have any questions comment on here or ask on my tumblr account as I'm always on there! http://cocojarv.tumblr.com/
I'll be back very soon! (With some exciting pictures of me jumping off cliffs.....)
