I was born on a Sunday. My birthday this year is today, a Sunday. It was tea time when I was born. I should ask my Mother more about the actual day ... what happened, how it happened, details ... I think she'll remember. My Dad too. I am grateful for parents who are in … Continue reading 45: The Day

45/2021/44: Paper jets and fire
Fire woodImage by Paul Brennan from Pixabay Today the sky was grey. Rain was heard and felt and seen most of the day. I loved it. Winter baby things. I've always loved the sound of rain on the roof, on plants, amongst trees ... and the smell thereafter is one of my favourites. Lovely. Breathe. … Continue reading 45/2021/44: Paper jets and fire
45/2021/38: Just go with it
I slept in today. Chilled morning. It's quite interesting. It feels like I very rarely do that. I felt more tired when I woke up and got up. Like I slept too much. I didn't. I went to bed before midnight, but went to sleep after 3. Don't ask. One of those things. Brain not … Continue reading 45/2021/38: Just go with it
45/2021/15: Processing
Today was a processing kinda day. I don't even know how to explain it. I don't know what I have done but my head has made decisions on a few things in the process without me intentionally thinking about it. I've probably overthought it. And then left it. And then ... VOILA! Decision made. I'm … Continue reading 45/2021/15: Processing
45/2021/1: Yes, please.
There's something beautifully simple about these two words: Yes, please. Heartwarming almost. Especially if it's unexpected. Do we use them enough though? Why was I surprised? I have a friend who sometimes give me orders and I reply: 'Please?', then the please will come. Intriguing I find it ... it would be nice if those … Continue reading 45/2021/1: Yes, please.

23 November 13 x 3 = 39 I miss you. I was considering checking in. I decided not to. Because sometimes you have to close the door and / or burn the bridge. It makes me sad. I didn't get the chance to know you as the friend I wanted to. So much we could … Continue reading 2020: 39

22 November 20 + 20 = 408 x 5 = 40 = 10 x 4 I saw this quote on the right on someone's WhatsApp status today and I thought about it a little while. Burning bridges. Hmmm ... Must it burn? How do I set it alight? What type of bridge is it? Was … Continue reading 2020: 40

19 November 43 = A prime number. Today, a funeral. Suicide. A young man. His friends came as one. Each of them told a story / stories about him at the gathering after the service. It was such a beautiful, heartwarming experience. I remembered his lovely, warm, playful spirit like he was there. Sadness was … Continue reading 2020: 43

05 November It’s a super quiet Guy Fawkes Day. Grateful. Yay for al the pets!!! Double yay!!! I’ve been looking around today. I saw some flowers and bees, avocados falling from trees, birds flying by and raindrops falling from the sky. The early day had some thunder that I didn’t hear at all. I slept … Continue reading 2020: 57
