I have no excuses. I've been quiet for a while. But that's good isn't it? Maybe I was off meditating on a mountain, doing my yoga stretching, communing with nature????
Nah! Sorry, just been busy. Although I'm busy with such cool stuff....the most exciting being.....
we're getting a puppy! A little black cocker spaniel puppy called Oscar. We pick him on Sunday.
Is it the simple things that make us happy and content? My vision is that i'll be off in the fields every morning with my little companion giving me unconditional love by my side and this will indeed be gateway to everlasting peace (me looking outside of myself for peace - surely not?)
Will keep you posted on how it goes.
In the meantime, here's the interview with Marianne Williamson that I've been promising forever.
This woman is truly my inspiration. When I interviewed her, I felt really, really humbled. Inner peace? She's lived it. She lives it every day.
And her new book The Age of Miracles is exactly what I needed to read as my big birthday approaches in May. Here's what she has to say:
“Once
you’re past a certain age, you can hardly believe you wasted even one minute of
your youth not enjoying it,” she laughs. “And the last thing you want to do now is steal any more life from
yourself by failing to be deeply in it,” she advised. “This moment is all you
have.”
She
told me to stop searching outside myself for happiness, either in the past or
the future. “You are who you are, not
who you might be one day. Your life is what it is, not what it might be someday. And by focusing on who you are
and what your life is right now, you come to the ironic and almost amusing
realisation that, yes, the fun is in the journey itself."

I'll send more Oscar photos next week.
