Wow. A whole year already!
I never created you for anything in particular – you were born … justB[coz].
But I can’t tell you how much you’ve added to my existence over the last 12 months … without you, I don’t think my life would be anything close to as good as it is right now.
Thank you for giving me a voice.
Thank you for allowing me to vomit out my innards.
Thank you for listening, without judgment or interruption.
Thank you for putting up with my rants and my silliness.
Thank you for the laughs, and the tears.
Thank you for leading amazing people my way.
Thank you for letting me re-connect with the world, online and offline.
Thank you for changing my life.

Why? … justB[coz]
OK, so I’ve decided to take the blog-plunge! Not really sure how it’ll go, but I thought it’d be cool to have my own spot to write about and publish what’s happening in my head, around me, to me, because of me (you get the picture, right?).
I make no promises here – I’m not particularly funny, insightful or witty. I don’t have any interesting hobbies or amazing skills. I don’t travel at all and I definitely don’t know any celebrities. In fact, my life is super b-o-r-i-n-g! So … don’t hold your breath … really, you have been warned 🙂
Headspace will probably just be used to record mundane day-to-day happenings, keep track of some events, upload and share some photos, allow me to vent a bit, and generally just provide me with some much needed keyboard therapy.
Who knows? We’ll see where it goes …
Thanks Jeanette! Sheesh … the time has flown …
Happy blogoversary!
Heh. Thanks Po 🙂
Weird I thought you had been blogging for years, but aactually you and I started the same month!
Happy blog day!
@Sir G … it never ceases to amaze me just how much my li’l ol’ blog touches other lives. Blows me away.
@Dad … I 100% agree! Definitely one of the best things I’ve done. I’m no talker AT ALL (I’m the wall flower at prom, just minding my own business and trying to stay out of everyone’s way) and justB[coz] has allowed me to communicate in a way that I’m very comfortable with.
@JOC … you are most welcome 🙂 It astounds me that I (ME!) … *I* can help other people in some way. Seriously.
@Cath … Thank YOU for listening Special Person, for letting me be well, just ME I guess heh xxx
@Glugster … mmk, I’ll bite … HOORAY!!!
@Chris … Thanks! Did you know that the very first comment I ever got from someone outside of my friends and family was from you? http://www.justbcoz.co.za/headspace/2008/05/18/this-may-help-you
@StevenMcD … and you and your beautiful wife are two shining examples of some of the incredible people who’ve come my way as a result of justB[coz]. Love you lollyloads xxx
Congrats 😀
Happy Bday!
Hip Hip!
