Lighthouses …. from my travels

Setting goals and living in the moment

How is it possible to live in the moment but have goals for the future? It doesn’t make sense really does it? However it is possible.

Mindfulness and Healing

Whilst I am not a yoga person, the idea of mindfulness and being more aware of breathing and thankfulness is certainly something that assists in dealing with depression. What she has to say is powerful.

Being Grateful

In Australia, we don’t celebrate Thanksgiving. However, to those of my blog followers who are celebrating right now I send much love and gratitude to you. I am thankful to have you all as a small part of my life. It is a pleasure to begin and end each day at my computer reading your thoughts on life and about what is happening in your world.

Becoming Real

“What is REAL?” the Velveteen Rabbit asked the Skin Horse one day. “Does it mean having things that buzz inside you and a stick-out handle?”

Make it Shine – Thank you all!

Port Fairy lighthouse. Victoria.

I shared this on my FB page the other day. The lighthouse is located at Port Fairy in Victoria. This little town is just stunning and full of hidden gems and beauty. We spent a lovely couple of hours on this little island (you can walk out to it).

I want to thank all of my followers for their amazing ability to make their lives shine and reflect on those around them. Your beauty has touched my life and blessed it. 🙂

Have a blessed day.

I didn’t mean to…

This evening, I’m a bit down on myself. Today someone said something to me that hurt. In doing so, she pointed out a flaw in my character and damn it, I’ve spent so long trying to fix my flaws that this one wasn’t something I expected.

Living in the moment

Jim Carrey dropped out of school as a teenager in order to support his family. His father was an unemployed musician. Carrey describes his family as going from “lower middle class to poor”. They were so broke that they moved into a van. Jim desperately wanted to become a comedian and held on fast to that dream.
