Hi, I usually like to write my posts about what I've learnt from various podcasts I've listened to, books I've read, experiences I've heard someone share and how these insights impact me.

When was the last time you looked at something with wonder? I just watched a boy about 5 years of age coming up the bus and going “Awesome!”. He was looking around at the interior of the bus. We were on one of the newer buses with two doors and steps at the back door.  He was so amazed he wasn’t thinking about how the bus was moving off and he needed to be seated. His father and I were busy making sure he does not fall.  After I left the bus two stops down, I looked at my surrounding with fresh new eyes.  On the path home, I wondered at the flowers and greenery. I looked at a bird walking about.  What a time to be alive.

While taking another cup of water, I stood still in the kitchen the kitchen my husband and I and my ID, Aaron designed together oh, if this isn't nice, I don't know what is * my home, every item in this place, has its place and its mine the bed, the bathroom mat, the curtains, the flowers on our peninsular I'm so in love with my home right now.  --- *so happy I thought out loud that quote which I first read on Ali Abdaal's newsletter - you can read it here . It's from Kurt Vonnegut and the full quote reads:  "And I urge you to please notice when you are happy, and exclaim or murmur or think at some point, 'If this isn't nice, I don't know what is." inserts face holding back tears emoji  🥹   I urge you to find these moments in your life too, and share them with me! Sending love, kindness and light, Bree

If that's all life gives me, I'll take it..

I have been wondering for a long time comparing me now to me in the past, in particular, the me who wrote consistently everyday. how did she do it? what frame of mind what she in? what was her why? what made her even write on holiday? I keep asking myself these questions but today, as I sat down to write, I thought,  the ebbs and flow of creative energy, writing energy, if that's all life gives me, I'll take it why question how it happened in the past? why not ask myself how to create the magic now and in the future. aiming for 1 post a day.  let's go fam!
