Food
It's strange how much food affects your life........it defines your mood and all sorts of quality times.....like your entire lifestyle!
Family times together would be over a reassuring cup of tea or a ritual of dinner together. You bond with friends particular outlets....maybe at "Barista's Dark Temptation" or maybe just at Mc D...whatever!
Going out means you will eat something interesting an daring or something tried and tested.
Some types of food items become "comfort foods"...munch chocolate of chips over a movie/novel when upset!
Celebration means going out to your fav restaurant usually.
And at the end of the day what do you get? Excess weight and fat ...........and suddenly you can't have any of it! It requires a whole lifestyle change to eat healthy!
But then sometimes that can also be worth it...especially if you start healthy eating together with a few close ones. It gives you a chance to explore more in life. It's worth a try.

Brida
It's amazing how some books manage to give you new insight to life each time you read them..like brida......read it just the second time and already devoting another post to it........especially want to share a few of the beautiful quotes from it....
"Anyone who tries to possess a flower will have to watch its beauty fading. But if you simply look at a flower in a field, you will keep it forever, because the flower is part of the evening and the sunset and the smell of damp earth and the clouds on the horizon"
"All wines should be tasted; some should only be sipped, but with others, drink the whole bottle..................... You can only know a good wine if you have tasted a bad one"

Life was good again
It had been a frustrating day and week. No one appreciated her hard work or talent. It was always someone else who made it to the top. She had been sick. She had been confused. And she had been angry and irritable. Gudia felt that any minute now she would burst. And now when she finally wanted to relax with her love, she got a call for a sudden meeting. There really seemed to be no justice! Her though, patient as always, told her to take her time and he would be waiting nearby. It took her half an hour and one agrument to get back. Only now she couldn't reach her love's number-- and soon she would have to go home ! This wasn' t the first time. His phone hadn't been working for sometime now. But at that moment it was all that was needed to push her to the edge.
There he came smiling...and she fumed and shouted "Why don't you just throw your phone away?"
Plonk!!!!
Down went the phone on the road.
Gudia felt stunned but rescued it in time.
"What did you do that for? Are you crazy?"
"You said throw it away. :)"
"But it could have broken..." Gudia said still stunned.
"So what? It's just a phone.....that should be thrown away." He winked.
Suddenly Gudia smiled and relaxed...who could be hyper when they had such sweet love? What more could one ask for? Life was good again.
Life can be harsh but sometimes little spontaneous acts of love/craziness/kindness are all that we require to get us back to our senses and back to face reality.
