Summer tips

If you can't stand the heat invest in some pure peppermint essential oil(dilute with a base oil or water for a refreshing spray:).

For a simple, effective and completely natural insect / mozzie repellent dilute some citronella and eucalyptus(Not just for koalas you know:) essential oil with a base oil(almond, sesame, coconut etc.) and apply when needed!

Enjoy summer 2009!

The Game of Life and How to Play it!

Realise that great and great achievement involve great risks.

When you lose, don't lose the lesson.

Follow the 3R's: Respect for self, respect for others and responsibility for your actions.

Remember! Not getting what you want is a stroke of luck.

Learn the rules so you know how to break them properly.

Don't let a little dispute injure a great relationship.

When you realise you've made a mistake, move to correct it immediately.

Spend time alone everyday.

Open your arms to change, but don't let go o your values.

Remember! Silence is the best answer!

Life a good honourable life, then when you get older and look back you'll enjoy it a second time!

A loving atmosphere at home is the foundations of your life.

In disagreements with loved ones, deal only with the current situation. Don't bring up the past.

Share your knowledge, it is a way to achieve immortality.

Be gentle with the Earth.

Once a year go somewhere where you've never been before.

Remember that the best relationships is where your love for each other exceeds your need for each other.

Judge your success by what you had to give up in order to get it.

Remembering Diana

Whoa! Half of 2009 gone forever, I better start accomplishing goals and pronto(Time waits for no one)!!!

I started my day with some yummy raw choccie(The Raw Chocolate Co),maca, spirulina and banana. Feel quite wonderful and energetic, but most importantly I'm quite motivated to accomplish my goals(Hurray:)!

It would of been Princess Diana's 48th birthday today(I still can't believe she's passed over)and here's my fitting pictorial tribute to her(The loving mother that she was:)

Guilt-free Treats......

RIP Micheal

I've never perceived myself as a MJ 'fan', but I did appreciate a lot of his early work and his raw unique talent that he sacrificed his anonymous life for. MJ was a significant figure in my childhood. I appreciated his gifts and the gentle boy / man that he was; if that makes me a fan so be it!

Thank-you for the music, Micheal:)

His legacy is his music!

MJ Remembered

He penned songs with real conviction, poignancy and profound truth! We can assume then he was a idealist and a deeply sensitive, compassionate and misunderstood human being.

Sad Day for Showbusiness

Whoa..... What can I say I still cannot quite believe that the historical child musical genius born in Gary, Indiana to a Katherine and Joe Jackson has passed away. He was only 50 years young(The same age as the queen of pop herself, Madonna). His phenomenal talent transcended all generations, genres and colours. I've got fond memories of the classic Motown / Disco album; 'Off The Wall', 'Ben', 'The Earth Song' the list goes on and on! And how can we forget the beats to 'Beat It'! He really did not need the negative press mocking him left, right and centre. He was thrust into the spotlight from a very early age, hence never really had the privilege of a normal life existence. It is just so sad. I'm so grateful that we have his wonderfully unique record of his extraordinary talent to remember him by(What a legacy indeed:). My Thoughts and condolences go out to his family at this challenging time(His poor mother, how it must feel to out live your child I will never know). I feel a series of tribute concerts will be fitting for the 'king of pop'. Micheal would love that!

Our thoughts, prayers and condolences goes out to also the family of former Charlie's angel herself, Farrah Faucett(My favourite angel:). It was she who inspired the 'Farrah flick' hair!
