Desiderata

Sometimes you just read something that touches your heart and moves your soul. If ever you were going to have a way to live your life it is by the words of the poem in the link below. 

Today I've been thinking a lot, especially about the people that matter the most to me. Emma, Toni, Brooke, Abbey. Those who've been there for me and those I've tried to be there for. 

I wish I could be the person who lived up to the words in this. To two of you I say thank you so much for the past few days, to two of you I apologise more than you'll ever know. 

We are all children of the universe. Be yourselves. I love you for that. It is a beautiful world, its just sometimes we can't see it.

June Challenge: Day 29: Five songs or pieces of music that speak to me or bring back memories.

Day 29, Saturday : Five songs or pieces of music that speak to me or bring back memories. 

Sometimes when you're asked a question the answer is easy to find. 

1. Celine Dion 'Because you loved me'

2. Linkin Park 'Numb'

3. Coolio 'Gangsta's paradise'

4. Eva Cassidy 'Songbird'

5. Sarah McLachlan 'Full of grace'

All I will say is that one of these is a childhood favourite, one reminds me of teenage angst. Another drew me to an amazing television programme, a further is the most beautiful song ever sung and the last was sung by a friend at her own funeral. Can you guess which one is which? 

Each memory is precious.
