Leffe Blond psychology


You just have to read this.

I wrote a piece for a psychology unit I did once upon a time. I wrote how lucky I was. I'd had the usual abuse, but I really felt lucky and felt uncomfortable about it. I felt I possibly should be suffering and resentful. I didn't. I don't. 


I love that. Alexandra Franzen's article really sums that up. We don't have to suffer or go through adverse situations to have valid wisdom that helps others. Yay.


My life can be as easy as a Leffe Blond goes down at the end of a day.


So can yours, whether you like Leffe Blonde or not!


It's all a story, so we might as well make it a good one.


Take a moment right now and write your future story, the good one, the ideal one.


What would you be doing? Who would be there? What would you smell, see, taste? How would you be earning your living? What would you be contributing to the world or your community?


Post that up on your mirror or the toilet wall or somewhere that you'll see it every day.

The Black Hole v Tom Jones

If you were in a black hole and Tom Jones walked by, could you summon up a smile, or even just an ironic grin?

Could you put on your 'best you' attitude?


O yes you could.


Easily.


OK. So Tom Jones doesn't float your boat! Fill in your own person that you would want to meet or have in your world... Julia Gillard... Gran... 


Let that person keep you honest.


Let that person keep you true to who you know you can be.


Let that person allow you to be who you know you can be with everyone currently in your world. If Tom Jones were here, would I want him to see me acting like this?


Don't let that Black Hole thing take over.


When you are bright and a beauty, that's the real thing, not a face.


Leave a comment. Who is that person who could have influenced you to act decisively and gracefully if they had been present, instead of acting in a way you are not happy with? Put their face on your phone's home screen! See what happens.

Maureen Hawkins & George Thorogood

Before you were conceived, I wanted you. Before you were born, I loved you. Before you were an hour, I would give my life for you. This is the miracle of love.
Maureen Hawkins

This poem infiltrates my thinking and stokes my fires to do what I say I want to do.

It invites me to live the story I want my kids to tell after I've exited the stage left (deadibones).

It provokes me to tell the already lived stories they wouldn't know about me, and helps clarify assumptions they may hold about me after the family's separation and divorce.

What's the story you want told after you're deadibones? (Start acting it out right now).

Who do you want to tell it? (Tell them now).

Orgasmic! Yes... orgasmic

Fresh banana sliced into about 5 bite sizes pieces.

Mayvers organic tahini dolloped onto each banana bit.


Pure Harvest organic honey drizzled all over the lot.


Eat straight away and eat quickly. Maybe that's not exactly foodie correct but go with your flow. It worked for me!


O yeah. Delicious.


I have just finished a session of cross fit at Absolutely Flabless Gym. Maybe that's got something to do with how delicious the food was.


Bring it on.

Ipswich 100 50 km ride - YES I CAN!

The ride is on Sunday April 14th, 2013. A nice close to Queensland schools' mid semester break.

Who's joining me?


PS. It was my 73 year old dad who asked me if I was going to join him on the ride actually. 


You just can't tell where inspiration is going to come from can you?

Listen in this week for some synchronicity. 


What challenge is going to present itself to you? (Do it!)


Where is it going to come from? (Thank them!)

Body Haven

Racheal has magic hands and cups. Thank you.

I really do know how to look after myself to be and do my best. I can't separate the physical from the mental and spiritual value in a massage. I'll be back on Saturday.


Body Haven is one of those little massage places that you can't guarantee to get a booking straight away.  www.bodyhaven.com.au 




That's a Nando's vegie burger in the background. It's better than hot chips right?

What's your weakness in the take-out food area?

What's your fall back semi-healthy eat-out food? 

Keep that in mind when making food choices when you're out!!

Leave a comment about your food choices. I wonder what variety there'll be...
