Todays post might not be so positive - but it’s related to the most positive person I know.. My best friend.. My ‘mamma bear’..
All I can write right now is - the cancer is not going to beat you - it is not going to get the better of you, we’re going to get through this…
Your not going anywhere mummy x

The above photo was taken on a recent amazing holiday to my hometown Dubai … I am happy I have the memories …
Today I was listening to the radio on my way home from work and the guest speaker quoted a very important thought… ’ Generosity is a state of mind - not a state of wealth’… I related this to my life: Yesterday in the grocery store, I was paying for my items.. There was a very timid looking labourer waiting behind me with a few cosmetic items and was struggling to put together a few coins to pay for it… Now, I am by no means a millionaire but I do have enough to help him out and pay for his goods… Those couple of dinars for his simple items are the price of something like a starbucks which we as middle-class take for granted… It gave me such an immense feeling to see the smile on his face - he was in pure shock - I just hope I made his day and helped him out in someway..
If we all did this - can you just imagine the impact it would have on their lives ?
I woke up to a beautiful quote which I lt deserved to be my first blog post:
’Have you ever been in a beautiful spot in nature or hanging out with a friend or completing a project at work, but it feels like you’re not really there? It’s because your mind is at the wheel. Today, eject your mind from the driver’s seat and let your soul steer. Take moments throughout the day to quiet your mind. Focus on the present. Release your doubts. Release your worries. Release caring what people think about you. Be still. For a moment…’
This inspired me to just enjoy the solitude I feel in my home - I have been listening to beautiful relaxing music, reading, drawing and clearing my mind of negativity.. I think we should all do this at one point in our day - it rejuvenates the soul.
