TRIGGER: Beautiful #1

May 30, 2008 at 9:55 pm · Filed under Triggers and tagged: , , , , , , , ,

Sometimes, I think we take things for granted and forget just how lucky we are to be alive, safe and well.
 
It’s all too easy to focus on the negative aspects and forget that there’s so many positives….no matter what.
 
So just stop!
 
Stop focusing on those bad things.
Take a good, long, hard look around and see what a beautiful, beautiful world we live in.
What a beautiful life this is.
What beautiful people we love.
What a beautiful world we are blessed with.
 
so the trigger is….

TRIGGER: Rain

May 2, 2008 at 9:05 pm · Filed under Triggers and tagged: , , , , , , , , , , , , ,

Well…after saying that ‘Spring has Sprung’ it suddenly recoiled and winter crept back in. The temperature cooled (again!), the sun crept back behind the big black clouds and the rain came. And the rain came. And the rain came some more.
(checks feet….yep, they’re webbed).
 
Now then, what’s the betting that they’ll still declare a water shortage when (or should that be if) Summer gets here?
 
Tomorrow I face a very wet drive to look at the first of the Universities that my Daughter is considering going to.

Sounds like the cue for a song or 14…so the trigger is:
