In the words of Diana

Princess Diana would have turned 60 years old on Thursday and in honor of that, I am sharing a few of her quotes. 


"Only do what your heart tells you."

"Carry out random acts of kindness, with no expectation of reward, safe in the knowledge that one day someone might do the same for you." 

"Family is the most important thing in the world."

"When you are happy, you can forgive a great deal."

"Everyone needs to be valued. Everyone has the potential to give something back." 

"People think that at the end of the day a man is the only answer. Actually, a fulfilling job is better for me."

"I don't go by the rule book. I lead from the heart, not the head."

"Nothing brings me more happiness than trying to help the most vulnerable people in society. It's a good and essential part of my life, a kind of destiny."

"Hugs can do great amounts of good, especially for children." 

"I am a free spirit. Some don't like that but that's who I am."

"I think every strong woman in history has had to walk down a similar path, and I think it's the strength that causes the confusion and fear. Why is she strong? where does she get it from? Where is she taking it? Where is she going to use it?"

"I will fight for my children on any level so they can reach their potential as human beings and in their public duties."

"I am always going to be true to myself."

"I am not a political figure. I am a humanitarian figure, always was, always will be."

"The biggest disease people suffer from in this day and age is the disease of people feeling unloved."

"If you find someone you love in your life, then hang on to that love."

Virtual Stop #1: Lymington - A Seaside Gem Discovered by Chance

Welcome to my virtual travel series, where I explore beautiful corners of the world without leaving my bed. Inspired by TikTok livestreamers and walking tour videos, these posts capture what I see, feel and learn as I journey through new places from afar.  I wasn't planning to visit Lymington - not virtually, not in any way. I had never heard of it before watching my favorite singing buskers livestream from the quaint little town in the UK and now I'm captivated. The charm of Lymington unfolded before my eyes: Cobbled pathways, rows of boats bobbing gently at the marina and friendly locals to stop and enjoy the music. I experienced it from my bed.  There is something so welcoming about the town, The people passing by weren't just polite - they were supportive. Some clapped, others left kind words or a few coins, and a few even stayed for songs. There are three ladies who go often to support the guys. They have all been following them on TikTok for a while and met each other...

The Prove It Game

The public opinions on Meghan Markle, or Meghan, Duchess of Sussex, are divided. Some love her and most seem to hate her. I admire her in some ways. I just watched an interview she did with podcast host Jamie Kern Lima and something she said resonated with me.  Image from Jamie Kern Lima YouTube.  Here it is: "We spend so much of our lives trying to prove something. You have to prove that you're enough, you have to prove that you're pretty enough, you have to prove that you're smart enough, you have to prove that you're a good wife or a good friend, and I am just so done with the prove it game. When you get to the place where you feel like I don't have to prove anything to you anymore. I don't have to prove that I'm a good person, I don't have to prove that I'm a good wife or mum or friend, I don't have to prove that I work hard. It can be really freeing when you stop playing the prove it game." - Meghan Markle. I completely agree with...

Social Media Ban

Prime Minister Anthony Albanese has said that the Australian Government will enact laws to ban children under 16 years of age from social media and here I am sharing my thoughts on this.  Image from The Chapel Hairdressers - Horsham Facebook page  There are many benefits of social media. We can share photos and videos with our families and friends to keep them updated on our lives, instantly communicate with them, have a record of special memories, businesses can promote their products and services, connect with people professionally and do so much more. So many people are working on social media full time as influencers, working with brands and creating content online  and some have even married people they met online.  Social media can also be used as a weapon.   Preteens and teenagers go through puberty, stress about getting good grades at school, do their best to live up to their parents expectations, have many things they are worried about and just wan...
