BE YOURSELF!!
..we can waste some much time trying to be someone else..
..wishing we were someone else..
..hoping that our lives were like someone else's..

..its taken me a long time to be ok with whom i am..
..and now its important that i am always trying to be..the best version of me..

..cos when you believe in yourself..the possibilities are endless..

REMEMBER..take chances..take alot of them..
..because honestly..no matter where you end up..


..and with whom..it always ends up the way it should be..

..our mistakes make us who we are..
..we learn and grow with every choice we make...

..so always say how you feel..always be true to yourself..


..be okay with who YOU are..
BE YOURSELF!!
... as Judy Garland once said..
"always be a first rate version of yourself...
instead of a second rate version of somebody else"

WONDERFUL WEEKEND..

..yay for the weekend and the end of another term of uni..

..just a few more thoughts..


..forgive everyone..for everything..


..time heals almost everything..so give time..time..

..life is too short to waste time or energy hating someone..



..no one is in charge of your happiness but YOU..


..don't judge others

...you have no idea what their journey is all about...


..you don't have to always win every argument..

..its ok to agree to disagree..


..dream more while you are awake..


..don't take yourself too seriously..

..no one else does...




...no matter how you feel..

..get up..

..dress up..

and show up!!


have an awesome weekend all x

..OUR CHILDREN..



..every once in a while you come across something that reiterates your values and reminds you of how important some things are..such as..

OUR CHILDREN X

..i am doing an assignment at the moment about Aboriginal culture and the devastation that some families went through as a result of having their children removed from them..

..whats even sadder is how it has impacted on their lives and culture today..


..its so important that we teach our children life skills..

and respect for others and themselves..


..as Whitney sang about it..




..I believe the children are a future..

..teach them well..

..and let them lead the way..


..show them all the beauty they possess inside..


..give them a sense of pride..

to make it easier..



..let the children's laughter..


..remind us how we used to be..


..we need to encouage our children to love others and love themselves..
..to treat others like they want to be treated..
..not to walk in anyones shadow..but stand up for what they believe in..

..lets give the next generation a good chance of

being happy..whole..people x

the POWER IS WITHIN YOU!


it doesn't matter what you do in this world..

..it doesn't matter if you are a sailor..


..or a house wife..



..or a business man..



..or an artist..


..we all have the wisdom inside of us to know what is true..

..and if we look within and simply ask.."what is this experience trying to teach me?"..

and we are willing to listen..we will have the answer..

..don't give your power away to other people..

they only have power over us when we allow them to..


..remember..what other people think of us.. is really none of our business..

truly..what you think of me is none of my business..its your business..


..when we are conscious of what we are doing..

we can bring change in our own lives..


..life is really here for US!

..SO tell life what you want..and allow the good to happen x
