I don’t know how I really feel after the events of the last week. After taking my brother and sister to the airport early this morning, before the hustle and bustle of a regular day in Placa Reial or on las Ramblas began, I took a walk down one of the most famous streets in […]
We are entering an age where the world is run by comic book villains. Ain’t nobody got time for fighting the baddies while desperately trying not to create the despots and dictators of the future. What is wrong with these people?! Was quite literally everyone in the whole wide world so badly neglected, or […]
For me, HAPPINESS is: Being alive and being healthy. Appreciate it. Every. Single. Day. Love – this is not the exclusive reserve of couples. Love yourself (a lot, if the mood takes you. Err hheerrm), breathing, fruit, creatures – except the likes of snakes/cockroaches/earworms/penis-burrowing fish, and their ilk (that’ll get you nowhere). Your world, your city, […]
Happy Mother’s Day. To the mothers I know, and the ones I don’t, you are wonderful, ethereal creatures. My own mum will turn seventy in October of this year; and I have never valued what she is and what she does, more than I do now that I am older. With each passing year, I […]
You’ve changed my life, (and probably the lives of millions, around the world), but let’s not talk about them. I want to think that I’m your special one. I can’t thank you enough, for the things you’ve introduced me to that I might never have experienced, had I not met you. From the moment we […]
Who indeed. And who was it who said this? Why, the inimitable Mr Wilde of course, and as always; he was completely right. Except not about actual poor people, with or without love they are really, as in the dictionary definition; poor. No amount of trying to beam amour from your eyes intensely into the […]
“Returning hate for hate multiplies hate, adding deeper darkness to a night already devoid of stars. Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate, only love can do that.” – Martin Luther King Our hearts are with you once again, Paris. Love and peace will prevail. Xxx
*PSYCH!! Gotcha. It’s not that I have a problem with the day, per se, no, no, not at all. That’s not the case one bit. In fact, it makes me feel really great about myself. What I tend to do on this day, is spend my time, wandering about Barcelona, (and other towns and cities […]
Do one good deed today. No matter how small, you have no idea how much of a difference it might make. Look at your hubby, wife, your other/better half/#1 supporter, and tell them you love them. Shower your kids with hugs and kisses. Tell your family, you’d be nothing without them. Offer your friendship, unconditionally. […]
It’s where I sweat profusely because I’m working my t*tties off to try and stay in some kind of aceptable human shape and improve my stamina, so I don’t die walking up the stairs when the lift is out of order in my building. (Which actually happened after I got back from Christmas). It’s a biological FACT, […]
