#395 So…Charlie Mackey

What a lovely man. “I’m not on one side of the river saying “this is how to get across.” I’m on the same side of the river as everybody else saying “I wonder how we can cross this together.”” said Charlie Mackesy in a recent podcast on Bryony Gordon’s Mad World. Very poignant and I

#396 So…Hakuna Matata

Literally “No Worries”. Hakuna matata is actually a phrase in the East African language of Swahili that literally means “no trouble” or “no problems”. But I like the translation of “No Worries” So in the spirit of getting better, focusing on improvement, I have been reading a book called The Source by Dr Tara Swart.

#394 So…Pain is Pain but Suffering is Optional

I’m not sure where I heard this saying from, but what a wonderful saying! Everybody has pain one way or another. And by everybody, I mean everybody. Either physical, emotional, or mental, or a combination of all three. I have just searched on the Internet and the actual quote has been attributed to the Dalai

#393 So…Universe Calling

Patience is not the ability of waiting but how you act while waiting. A quote by Joyce Meyers Patience is all around. It is something that, as my Eurostar is speeding through luscious green fields on the way back from England to Paris, France, that I have more and more. Albeit it is hard to

And suddenly the sky seems to light up, and this amazing sunset appeared. I have arrived at my parents’ beautiful home after travelling from Paris to London and

#391 So…Am I Becoming A Writer?

I know this sounds very pretentious, but it is not with that in mind that I am saying that I am a writer. It is the manifestation of a future event. I really hope to be one and the weird and wonderful path that I’m on, is leading me towards that. On Monday, I took

#390 So…Cloudy Coffee

This post has nothing to do with coffee. I’m not even drinking coffee. Lots of herbal tea but no coffee. It’s more about a state of mind. The realisation of what has brought me to this point in my life. It brings to mind song by Stevie Nicks includes the phrase “clouds in my coffee.”

#389 So…This is Weird

I am in a really funny place. I’m sorry to say that I’m talking about my head. And not about where I am in terms of physical location. Actually where I am, in the park of Sceaux is anything, but funny. It’s beautiful, tranquil, friendly and quiet. So the only sound, I can hear, is

#388 So…What really Happened?

Wow! This is an incredible period that I am going through right now. After the euphoria of the new year, I have now sunk to the incredible depths of despair. I am so demoralised. I am in the worst possible space as I feel I have sunk into incredible depths of despair. Frightening and scary.
