  • Keep Seeking Your Passion

    I was having a clearout this weekend, and I came across a couple of courses I did back in the late 90’s – Positive Thinking and Journalism. I had a little chuckle to myself at the memories of these courses – I thought the positive thinking course was a bit thin, not that useful, but…

  • Let Joy Be Unconfined

    I was just sent this quote in an e-mail from Lisa of Beach Dance: On with the dance, let joy be unconfined! – Mark Twain Not a bad motto to live by, say I! May joy be unconfined in your life tonight! Love Donna.x

  • If You Could Do It All Again

    You may have seen this poem, it does the rounds on e-mail occasionally. This week, a friend sent it to me and I read it again and once again realised how wonderful a philosophy it is: IF I HAD MY LIFE TO LIVE OVER I’d dare to make more mistakes next time. I’d relax, I…

  • Moan, Whinge, Complain

    I just read a blog post on www.breaktheillusion.com about complaining. Davey Wavey had decided to have a ‘complaint free’ day…which lasted 3.5 minutes. This just really made me laugh. And also made me think about you guys – do you know how much you complain? How long would you last on a complaint free day?…

  • Life…T’is a Serious Business

    Do you remember the day when you set foolishness, silliness, ridiculousness and your sense of humour aside to become ‘grown up’? No, probably not as if we realised what exactly we’d have to sacrifice in order to be mature and adult, we wouldn’t do it! I want to know who decided that we should take…

  • Farting Around

    “I tell you, we are here on earth to fart around, and don’t let anybody tell you different.” Kurt Vonnegut I found this quote yesterday on a card, and I’m adopting it as my favourite piece of wisdom of 2009! It always amuses me that people who enjoy their lives (or fart around) are seen…

  • Start Where You Are

    “Don’t let life discourage you; everyone who got where he is had to start where he was.” Lao-Tzu Love Donna.x

  • Life Is A Song

    Life is a song – sing it Life is a game – play it Life is a challenge – meet it Life is a dream – realise it Life is a sacrifice – offer it Life is love – enjoy it – Sai Baba This week sing, play and enjoy life to your full capacity.…

  • Unstick Your Stuck Pooh Stick

    Remember Pooh-sticks? The game Winnie the Pooh and friends played where they drop a stick into the water on one side of the bridge, and the first stick to reach the other side wins. Now, imagine that life is like a game of Pooh sticks…and you are the stick. The stick is happily floating downstream…

  • Video: Rushing the River

    Life will happen in its own sweet time (divine timing), so why waste energy rushing the river. You can absolutely get into the fastest flowing current (the fun, joyful, high energy place), but when we try to push and force, it actually holds us back. Lie back in your inflatable dinghy and enjoy the ride.…
