A new lockdown for England

We have just heard we are starting a new lockdown in England.

We don’t even know how long for.

So I wanted to reach out and send some love round

and lots of virtual hugs.

We do need it.

 

So much love to you all , my friends.

My wish for you is to

Keep safe and healthy!

Hello December – December the 1st – We open the first window in our advent calendar

Welcome December !

 

The Motto for December is:

Write it on your heart that every day is the best day in the year.

Ralph Waldo Emerson

 

It had been a very different and hard year for the whole world.

Yet there is still always something good in every day.

This is what we need to celebrate.

We have adapted to the new normal and

we are still learning.

 

Love is always there and we need now more than ever.

Spread the love and kindness,

find something to celebrate everyday!

Sending my love all over the world to you

wishing you a peaceful December !

 

For December I will post a quote or saying every day

so you can “open” a window in my Advent Calendar.

♥ Enjoy ♥

A gift

I received some beautiful flowers.

I loved them so much, I wanted to share the beauty and joy with you.

A joy that’s shared is a joy made double.

Hello October!

Welcome October !

An Autumn month with many beautiful colours.

The Motto for October is:

Smile

Every year, on the first Friday in October we celebrate World Smile Day® since 1999.

Do an act of kindness,

make someone smile today.

Make the whole world smile.

Even if you can’t see the smile wearing a mask,

your smile shines in your eyes.

Make October a Smile Month,

there is lots to smile about,

there is lots to be happy about.

Even in hard times

find the small things,

beautiful things,

things which mean a lot,

and make you smile.

“Because of your smile, you make life more beautiful.”

Thich Nhat Hanh

“When things are difficult, smile by faith.

Don’t wait until you feel better.”

 Joel Osteen

 

Wishing you an awesome October with many smiles!

 

Sending some Sunshine to All

Sending everyone some sunshine.

Wishing you a wonderful Week. ♥

 

 

Hello September!

Welcome September !

The Motto for September is:

 

Make today awesome that yesterday gets jealous. 

 

Enjoy and celebrate each day,

be purposeful,

be focused,

be intentional,

bloom every day,

be happy.

Make every day count.

What you do today, may impact your future,

and will definitely create a past.

Create a past you love to remember.

 

 

Yesterday is gone.

Tomorrow has not yet come.

We have only today .

Let us begin.

Mother Theresa

 

Wishing you a really awesome September!

 

 

Hello August!

Welcome August !

The Motto for August is:

Miracles happen every day!

There are only two ways to live your life

One is as though nothing is a miracle

the other is as though everything is a miracle.

Albert Einstein

 

Wishing you a miraculous August!

 

 

Hello July!

Welcome July !

The Motto for July is:

Begin each day with a thank you!

Our world has gone smaller,

with staying at home more,

less interactions with people physically,

less hugs,

smiles we can’t see through masks (only in the eyes).

 

Life is different.

 

However attitudes towards everything might have changed in a positive way.

Priorities might have changed.

I am more grateful than ever for little things around me.

Thank you for nature,

thank you for my health,

thank you for my friends,

thank you for food,

thank you for all the people who are working hard to make life sort of normal,

thank you for each new day,

thank you for the sun,

thank you for my garden,

thank you

thank you

thank you

for all these things and so many more I’m not writing down.

Have a gratitude attitude!

 

Wishing you a thankful July!

 

 

You only live once

So choose to be happy.

Love unconditionally.

Be good to yourself.

Always be grateful.

Smile more.

This is great advice.

We might not get out as much as before,

yet we can still be happy with ourselves and what we have.

Love has no boundaries and can spread through words.

Be grateful for the smaller things, like getting up every morning,

connecting with friends, enjoying a cuppa.

Smile to yourself in the mirror.

The day will be so much brighter.
