Maybe a relationship is not about the electricity you feel when his hand brushes against yours.

Maybe it’s not about loving the feeling of his arm around your waist.

Maybe it’s not about the butterflies you have in your stomach when someone mentions his name.

Maybe a relationship is finding a man you can depend on, someone who shares the same faith and values as you, someone who isn’t going to leave you at the first sign of trouble.

The girls

This was probably the best Christmas i’ve had in a long while- Being part of the Christmas pageant, attending midnight mass, partying at Jon’s place till 4am, carolling in church, spending time with the young ones like Brenda and Cheryl, having dinner with June, Michaela and her family, being with my own wonderful family…

I’m just so thankful to God for all of this, especially after hearing about the massive earthquake and tsunamis that have hit Asia. I thought my heart would break as i watched a man mouning the loss of his entire family in India.

The most expensive present in the world can never make up for a tragedy such as this.

I hope you have a wonderful, blessed Christmas filled with joy, laughter, lots of good food and kisses under the mistletoe.

Clouds on a Thursday morning

I wake up at 7am every morning to go for my walk and it’s usually the same old routine- make my bed, brush my teeth, grab my discman, put on my shoes and leave.

But today, i was distracted by the clouds which i noticed upon opening the windows in the kitchen. They were beautiful and i had no choice but to stop and stare at them for a good five minutes.

I can’t imagine a world without clouds. Or trees. Or flowers. Or water. Or the sun, the moon, the stars.

Can you?

Me. I was so pleased that it was cold enough for me to wear my pink blazer. I adore it. And the skirt too.
