12 years

It's been 12 years already since that terrible tragedy that shook the entire world. I can still remember where I was. I had just arrived home from teaching all morning and when dad called from the shop 'Turn on the tv, America is under attack'. I sat there, transfixed as images of two planes crashing into the towers kept going on in a loop. The whole world was still. 

As a friend of mine commented earlier today, this was pre Facebook or Twitter and those towers were never photographed on Instagram. Social media was non existant otherwise news would have spread like wild fire. 

September 11 2001. In memory of that dreadful day. RIP to all those innocent victims who tragically lost their lives 

Something to ponder

I like nonsense, it wakes up the brain cells. Fantasy is a necessary ingredient in living, It's a way of looking at life through the wrong end of a telescope. Which is what I do, And that enables you to laugh at life's realities

Breathe

I used to love this song. First time I heard it was on TV, an advert to be exact. It's just one of those songs that just gives me a 'good feeling'

Just thought I'd share x

Morning Swim

There's nothing that beats an early morning swim. The hardest part is finding the energy to get out of bed and heading out to the beach but once you get there and you are the ONLY person on the beach - as I said, nothing beats that!

Summer has well and truly kicked in - lots of sun, sand, gelato, friends and fun times.

"A photograph is a most important document, and there is nothing more damning to go down to posterity than a silly, foolish smile caught and fixed forever."

-Mark Twain

Happiness

“Happiness is a butterfly, which when pursued, is always just beyond your grasp, but which, if you will sit down quietly, may alight upon you”- Nathaniel Hawthorne
