This has never happened to me before!
I must admit I’m still slightly in shock and totally disbelieving of what happened tonight. I left work about an hour later than I normally do and was walking through the carpark to my car. Two of my workmates were walking with me. I got to my car and was about to get in when I saw something on my...

Achieving small goals, enjoying small moments
For some of us it is the catastrophe in our lives, which initiates the motivation that sees us finally utilising our talents and skills to achieve our goals. There are some of us who need to taste the fear of plunging through the abyss; who need to feel the emptiness of the bottom most point in...

Our greatest fear - especially for wordsmith…
In my last post I mentioned that a quote from one of Nelson Mandela’s speeches was used in the movie “Coach Carter” and that that particular quote has always inspired me. The words were originally written by Marianne Williamson and wordsmith asked me what the quote was, so here it is: Our Greatest...

Where do I begin?
I guess I haven’t been here too often in the past few days. So much has been happening, especially at work, that I’ve simply been too tired to get out the computer. Firstly I had to work on Monday, although it was a public holiday, it was not a University recognised holiday. It was the last day of...

Disappointing results in basketball tournament
This weekend sees the annual Classic Basketball Tournament being played at a stadium not far from where we live. It covers the age groups from Under 12s to Under 18s. Only the top national teams in their competition are chosen to play in this tournament. My son’s team is third on the ladder in their...

Bright red hair!
I took a time in lieu day off work today and had my hair done. Boy do I feel fantastic now! I get my hair done at a hairdressing school in their apprenticeship section, which is run by a friend of mine. I go in as a model and only get charged for the amount of colour they use on my hair. It takes a...

Hump day, hair and hives
Today is Hump Day. Or Wednesday. It’s the middle of the working week. Those of us, who work Monday to Friday, have clawed our way to the middle of the week and are now ready to bounce down the other side until the weekend welcomes us with open arms. But this week I have Friday off; I have worked...

Seeking that spiritual place
As I continue to read Catherine Ponder's "The Dynamic Laws of Prosperity", I come to the chapter on tithing. Now tithing, or giving one tenth of all you earn to the church or spiritual organisation that you attend, is something that dates back to the Old Testament. It has been and to some extent,...

A weekend out of my control
Sometimes things happen and the weekend you end up having is not the weekend you planned to have. This weekend was one of those. I had planned to spend both days writing. Its now 4.25pm on Sunday and this is the first time I’ve been able to get the computer out. My friend’s daughter was staying with...

I'm a date fanatic
I can't help myself; it has become compulsive obsessive behaviour with me. When I shop for food I have to check the use by date on everything I buy, especially if it’s a dairy product or meat. If there is one thing I hate, it's buying an item of food, getting it home, putting it in the fridge and...
