Laughter's good for the soul!


I had a good belly laugh last night. A friend of mine was being really silly, and they just kept on and it made me laugh, smile and in all likelihood I released some of that stress that we all carry as a result of the pressures of daily life.

I guess most of my entries are pretty serious, contemplative and in some cases quite heavy.

Today I want to say 'thanks' for laughter and remind myself that sometimes it's the simple things that make life precious and enjoyable. Hope you get to laugh sometime soon!

The power of rainbows

I got this picture from a friend via email recently and it reminded me how perfect this world really is.
It's easy to get caught up in all the pressures and stress of daily life. The demands that we place on ourselves and that others have of us can sometimes be overwhelming but then the simplicity of nature and the power of the Creator reminds us that it's all going to be OK.
I've been pretty busy lately. Travelling with work and also just keeping up with every day life. I have a feeling I've missed out on some precious moments with friends and family. This picture reminds me to STOP and not miss out on the simple things in life.
As a single person I have so many opportunities to invest in others ... young and old, and I'm going to set out once again, to make the most of that!
Can you relate?
