I just cant get enough of this site ... the awkward moment when you hit up your shopping cart but only to be sitting, looking at the screen wishing you had money to pay for it all.

maybe i need to start buying lotto tickets. this brings me to more discussion - how i am going on a saving wave ... starting to put my pennies to no use what to ever. Hiding them away for a rainy day.

I hope you enjoyed this tiny post.

life is not a race track

most people take things in life for granted......sometimes things happen that make us realise how important things are to us.

to me, the small things in life are my most treasured.

family is so important ... you don't realise just how great it is to hang around people with the same blood. if its been a day, a month or a year, your family are always the same & accept you for being you. thats why they are so great.

we all need to chill out and listen to the birds, feel the wind on our faces, smell the freshness in the air and appreciate the meals we eat with the ones who mean the most to us.

one day - all these things will be gone & that is when you would have wished you took more time out to just enjoy life, be yourself and appreciate what you already have.

Here are a few quotes ... I hope they inspire you too.




things in life are more beautiful when you take the time to acknowledge them.

will be in touch.
