Twenty-Twenty has been a strange year for ALL of us all over the world.

There’s been a great deal of losses worldwide in lives and material, but more so for each and every one of us, there is so much to be grateful for.

As long as we are alive and breathing, let’s continue to express gratitude.

Twenty-Twenty is coming to an end. We are back in lockdown in the U.K. along with some other European countries. Better safe than sick.

US has made history again. We have a brown-skinned female Vice-President. Keep it, Gals 😇

It’s not over till it’s over. …

On one of her escapades, Sasha packed up their stuff, sold her house in Europe, picked up her eleven-year old son and jetted off for a well deserved sabbatical to the French Caribbean. Neither of them spoke French, except for school French like ‘Je m’appelle Sasha’ 🙂. This was going to be an adventure of a life time for both of them.

Sasha’s son, Kieran is one of those blessings. He is so flexible, adaptable and never complains. He settled in nicely into life on the island and his new school. He took intense French Lessons to bring him up to speed with the other French students. …

N for Neighbourly

The one subject that all religions agree upon is the subject of “love”.

“Love thy neighbour as thy selves. Do unto others as you wish to be done unto you” i.e. loving, accepting, respecting others for who they are and not imposing your own views and values on them. However, you’ve got to be able to love yourself first, before you can love anyone else.

Why do people demonstrate more love and respect for their neighbours or pets than for their partners? …

Much as it is very important to adopt good habits and attitudes, it is even more important to rid ourselves of negative thoughts, bad habits, poor outlook to life and to steer clear of demeaning and defeating actions.

A dirty environment within breeds a filthy environment without and directly or indirectly attracts unpleasant things or circumstances into your life.

A clean environment within translates into a healthy, viable environment on the outside and attracts good things into your sphere of life.

Rid yourself of all thoughts and things destructive.

The attitude you portray to the world, is the response you receive from life.
