“Music washes away from the soul the dust of everyday life.” – Berthold Auerbach
This morning I heard “Lights Down Low” by Aston Wylie (ft. Michael Reed) and I loved the song so much I thought it would be a great idea to share it…great song Aston.
Listen to “Lights Down Low” by Aston Wylie below:
22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 23 gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law. (Galatians 5:22-23)
Today Christians enter the 40-day Lenten period and while it’s traditional to give up foods and vices during Lent today I woke up and prayed that God make me pure of heart and I committed to intentionally practicing The Fruits of the Spirit – love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control . I know I won’t be perfect in the next 40 days but I will be trying.
Pray for me always ☦️☦️☦️

Dreams are a prelude to reality – thats what I KNOW.
I have a dream I dream of being in an international ad campaign for TAG Heuer, a luxury brand of incredible watches, I want to be brand ambassador because I value my time here on Earth – very few people dare to paraglide even though they’ve never walked two steps on solid ground, very few people have loved and let go of 126 babies (and counting!) even though parenthood was technically never meant to be in the cards for them…nobody is me and that is my power. I BELIEVE IN ME, the question is, Mr. Frédéric Arnault (CEO of TAG Heuer), do you?
TAG Heuer ~ For those who value their time.
“This book is about the melancholic direction, which I call the “bittersweet”: a tendency to states of longing, poignancy, and sorrow; an acute awareness of passing time; and a curiously piercing joy at the beauty of the world. The bittersweet is also about the recognition that light and dark, birth and death—bitter and sweet—are forever paired. “Days of honey, days of onion,” as an Arabic proverb puts it.” ― Susan Cain, Bittersweet: How Sorrow and Longing Make Us Whole
Over the past few months, I’ve been deathly quiet on this blog because I’ve been grieving the losses that have happened in my life but after I finished reading Bittersweet: How Sorrow and Longing Make Us Whole by Susan Cain I realized that everybody will die or leave, everything that begins will end and every ending is a start of a new beginning and yes, it will hurt when life happens but we feel the hurt and move forward (with the grief) accepting that love and loss are two sides of the same coin – we can’t have one without the other. Bittersweet: How Sorrow and Longing Make Us Whole has been my favourite book of the year (so far) it has taught me so much about love and grief I would recommend this book to everyone because it’s truly about the human condition.

The future is green energy, sustainability, renewable energy.” – Arnold Schwarzenegger
As of yesterday, my house is solar-powered I’m so excited. The whole process took 4 days – step 1 was the installation of the battery and the invertor; step 2 was the mounting of 12 solar panels and step 3 was the wiring of the panels. A HUGE thanks to Warren Dixon and his team at In House Solar for their professional and affordable service – our road to green was made easy and exciting thanks to their exceptional service.
If you live in East London and want to go green Warren and his team at In House Solar are the people you need to call. Contact Warren on 071 415 3981
The only thing that’s constant in life is change – that’s what I keep learning
On April 30th 2022 my sister got married and thus now I have a new and very kind brother-in-law (I won’t be sharing any pictures or videos it was not my wedding and just because i’ll probably never get married I won’t use that as an excuse to violate people’s privacy) as my sister walked down the aisle to her new life I could literally feel our paths diverge I was so happy for her but also heartbroken for myself but as they say the only thing constant in life is change (Neethu, if you are reading this please know I do love you and Vineeth and i’m so happy you are married so happy but I have personal feelings that are separate from that please don’t think I’m sad because you’re married, I’m not, it’s just i’m a little lonely and that’s ok I’ll find a way to manage)
