44
This morning my daughters will bake me a banana and ginger cake to
celebrate my 44th solar return. I’d like to invite you to my
celebration by sharing 44 things I’ve learnt in my life.
Be you, everyone else is already taken
We have the friends we deserve
No gift is more beautiful than a smile
Music nurtures the soul
Home is the most wonderful place on Earth
The greatest prison is in our head
Being born Christmas week isn’t a tragedy
It’s never too late to learn an instrument
Deep breathing can calm any crisis
Love is the sweetest perfume
You’re never too old to need/want your mother
Children are very forgiving. Learn from them.
Others can only love you as much as you love yourself
Share recipes ~ and nourish other people
Hand-written letters are precious
Buy (grow) flowers for yourself
Luxuriate in your favourite scents
Reach for the stars
Keep your feet firmly on the ground
After betrayal, remember this: life goes on, you will survive
Walk everyday for health and happiness
Live according to your own morals
Be original
Somewhere along the way, I must have generated great karma for tomorrow I
celebrate 15 glorious years of marriage to my soul mate.
Tell your children you love them ~ every single day of their lives. No
one can ever take that away from them.
People come and go. The ones you need, stay.
Don’t let anyone steal your song.
Nurture your soul.
Pray, in good times and in bad
The Sun is sacred
Gratitude is even more powerful
than love
Be kind to yourself about previous mistakes
Live a life of no regrets
Call people up on their crap ~ you’re worth more than that.
Eat fabulous food every day
At a soul level, children choose their parents
Decorate your soul
Sleep well
Remember your dreams ~ they’re letters from God
Empathy is what connects humans
Every day is a miracle
Walk barefoot on the Earth
Life is very short ~ we don’t know how long we’re here for…so let’s celebrate every
single day as if it were the last.
The hand-crafted life is created one day
at a time.
