I love Aussies:)

Special thoughts, prayers and unlimited blessings to our Aussie siblings in S. Australia, Victoria and NSW. Despite this setback the Australian nation has shown an amazing resilience, courage and determination to rebuild their shattered lives. I salute you!

Focusing on the bigger picture today and everyday....

I was saddened to hear of the veteran serial drama actor, Bill Roach's deep loss yesterday. His lovely wife Sara passed away unexpectedly having tea with her husband. Having grew up watching this gentleman's craft(aka Ken Barlow:) in the Seventies / Eighties one instinctively and intuitively feels he is an exceptional human being who just so happens to be on telly(as does his wife Sara who appears to be a kind and elegant lady)!

I think this sad news has taught me the fragility of life, thus to make the most of every second, of every minute, of every hour, of everyday(Life is for living, hint, hint;).

Life is too short to bear a grudge.

My thoughts, love, prayers and blessings go out to the family at this challenging time.

Life's lessons; Treating Yourself as a child;)

It's soo typical of Blighty, as soon as we get a bit of snow the whole of the UK's infrastructure shuts down! I'm hardly complaining mind I'm lovin' it;) I'm also lovin' good businesses that genuinely puts people and the Earth top priority prior to any profits. PeopleTree does just that and really puts the majority of businesses to shame. Good business should be mainstream( common practice and not a niche market as we know greed corrupts). Another good business I like is the Doy Bags, a Philippine's-based initiative where trash / rubbish(ie juice packets, sweet wrappers etc.) is weaved into bags and purses. I'm coveting the multicoloured bag with the bamboo handle! Please give your support by voting now in the The Observer Ethical Awards 2009(held in June)!

Blessings to all;)

Divine Provendence Continued...

Oops! I forgot to mention, that Deborah's book, ' Wise Baby' was a sole, unloved(It looked like it had been gathering dust in the store's warehouse for years:) copy just waiting for the day to be taken home. I feel blessed to spot this gem of a book all for the princely sum of 98p(Amazon has a copy priced at over twenty pounds, RRP £14.99).

Thank-you God, thank-you Universe!

Divine Provendence

I pondered out last night seeking coconut oil(It's a fab hydrating tool amongst other things:) at a well-known pharmacy chain, but unfortunately for me the chain puts profit before people and the humble oil of the coconut has been discontinued(My chain-store bargain gone:(). I then ventured up the road to the nearest big supermarket and low and behold I spot a book, 'Baby wisdom' with a reduced sticker on the front and back(The fact it was reduced by a single British penny made me smile:). I've only read the first chapter but feel the wise mother and author Deborah is a woman after my own heart, all one can say is interfering mother-in laws etc. Read this(Mum does know best:)!

The world works in mysterious ways doesn't it?!!!

Good Intentions bear fruit!

Success starts in the head, moves to the heart, and lastly involves the mouth and stomach. My aim is to start where I left off early last year(Feb) where one had an unfortunate health scare which completely knocked me for six quite literately, I was left dumbfounded and unable to anything for the rest of the year:(.



I feel mental, emotional and physical fitness are the prerequisite core foundations of a good, happy and productive life.



I want to be the best example of one can be and therefore my aim is to eliminate using food as a crutch forever(and other averse negative habits) and live an abundant life as nature intended!



Motivations: a long-held desire to be a mother(Born in the year of the maternal Boar and Sun-sign maternal Cancer: early Cancerian).



Time for action me thinks:)
