Jugpreet Bajwa released his song "Inspired" in January, and here are my thoughts on it.  Instagram @jugpreetbajwa Very few songs speak to me the way Inspired does. The song is about resilience, self-belief and owning your journey. It’s a reminder to keep going, even when life feels impossibly heavy. With its raw emotion and powerful lyrics, the song shines a light on mental health, showing us that setbacks and struggles do happen, but they don’t have to end our dreams. They are moments which show us what we are capable of. We are not defined by our mistakes and setbacks. Knowing Jugpreet’s story makes it even more powerful. He lost his eyesight due to cancer when he was barely 6 months old, but he never let it stop him from achieving his goals. He has been performing since he was six years old and has performed in over 1000 shows. He believes in himself, and it shines through in every single on of his performances. He is not just singing about resilience, he is living it. ...

In 2018, I introduced you all to an incredible singer from St Lucia, D.B.L, who I found while scrolling through Instagram. I have quietly kept up with all his news, he has done so many amazing things. In October 2025, D.B.L released a single called Time To Break Away and, in this post, I am going to share my thoughts on the song and video with you.  Time To Break Away by D.B.L Image from Genius Time To Break Away explores the themes of rebellion, overcoming struggle and escaping negativity and talks about serious conflict we see happening in the world. Listening to the lyrics makes me feel emotional, and I think everyone who listens to it will feel something.  "You have to go to sleep with one eye open The rebel’s on the prowl to search for victim You got to know the rules or else it’s the end Now look at what’s around you all the bloodshed The propaganda spread the lies that dem spread The bigotry deceit to hide the problem Hypocrisy me me can’t understand I think about the c...

Live Like Tomorrow Isn’t Promised We make so many plans. For the weekend. For next year. For someday. But the truth is – someday isn’t guaranteed. Tomorrow might not come the way we expect it to. Life can change in an instant. So why wait?   Tell people you love them. Now, not later. Contact that person you’ve been thinking about but haven’t spoken to in a long time. No matter how busy you are, make time to see your loved ones. Dance when you hear music playing. Go on that trip you’ve been planning. Take photos. Record videos. Write down memories. Say yes to the party. Wear the outfit. Speak up, even when your voice shakes. Make the changes you want and start the thing you’ve been dreaming about.   We wait to feel ready or for the perfect moment but there’s no such thing. You have to make every moment count, even the messy ones. Don’t let fear or comfort zones or people’s opinions hold you back. There is so much beauty waiting beyond routine and you owe it to yourself...

                                           Photo credit to @Justicecrewofficial Instagram Justice Crew are a dance and music group who won Australia's Got Talent in 2010 and went on to release many amazing songs including number one hits Boom Boom and Que Sera . After their tour in 2019, they took a long break and now they are back!  I have been a huge fan of them since the beginning and have been to a lot of their shows, so when they announced they were performing a show in February, of course I was excited and attended with my friend. There was a huge crowd there to see them, which surprised a few people, including maybe the guys themselves. After six years, they probably felt rusty, but they were actually amazing as always. It was so cool to see them on stage again and here all the hit songs the number ones and  Everybody. It's so crazy how even now, after six year...

  We all carry a little darkness. Moments we don’t speak of. Storms We face. Shadows we walk through quietly.   But that doesn’t mean our light is gone.   Even on heavy days, when it feels like someone has punched us in the chest, or everything feels hopeless. We work. We care. We laugh. We create. We shine, like the brightest star in the sky.   No matter what happens today – even if it’s messy, or lonely, or full of tears - The sun will rise in the morning. Like it always does. Like we always do.   Because light doesn’t have to shout. Sometimes it just keeps showing up, quietly. One bright beam at a time.

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...
