Sunday Smiles ♥

Sunday can be a grim cocktail of a hangover from Saturday evening and the impending gloom of Monday morning, however it doesn't have to be this way! While I am unable to offer a better hangover cure than Berocca and a bacon sandwich, I do hope to bring a small smile to your Sunday, making the thought of Monday morning seem a little more bearable.


I was once like you are now, and I know that it's not easy, 
To be calm when you've found something going on. 
But take your time, think a lot, 
Why, think of everything you've got. 
For you will still be here tomorrow, but your dreams may not. 
Cat Stevens


It's too much to bare my darling, the weight of the world, I would carry it for you but please don't ask me to because the weight of the world is a burden I can't bare
Young Guns 


Friendship is certainly the finest balm for the pangs of disappointed love
Jane Austen


Let your life lightly dance on the edges of Time like dew on the tip of a leaf.
Rabindranath Tagore


I am deliberate and afraid of nothing
Audre Lorde


I hope you are having a lovely Sunday, thank you for reading my blog! 
I visited a friend this week that I am close to but I haven't seen since I moved to Glasgow, I was a bit worried before I left that it might be awkward or difficult since it had been so long since we had seen each other but it was great, it was like there had been no time since we had last met up. It reminded me that when you have friends or family that you are close to it doesn't matter how far apart you live or how long it has been since you have seen each other that closeness never goes away. 
This is the Beatles song, With a Little help from my Friends. 


Have a great week

I apologise for the late posting of this post, I met up with my aunt and her friends today which was lovely but it meant that this post was a bit late. Anyway thanks for reading and I hope you have a fantastic week! 


Put your heart back in your pocket, pick your love up off the floor,

I never had a place that I could call my very own but that's alright my love because you're my home

For my part, I travel not to go anywhere, but to go. I travel for travel’s sake. The great affair is to move.
Robert Louis Stephenson


The visible reminder of invisible light 
T.S. Elliot


Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines, sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.
Mark Twain


I met a guy in a nightclub this week, he seemed nice and was a pretty good kisser so it was a fun night. My friends wanted to leave round 2am so I was leaving with them and he asked for my number. I gave it to him but I didn't expect to hear much from him, I am under no illusion about meeting guys in nightclubs! A couple of days passed and I hadn't heard anything but then on Saturday I got a text from him. It was a nice surprise and it challenged my pre-conceptions about guys in nightclubs. We haven't met up yet and nothing may come of it but I just wanted to let you know that sometimes, when you are least expecting it, a curve ball can come out of the blue, knock you on the head and remind you that the world is unpredictable and who on earth would want to change that? 

In that vein, this is the seven ages of man by William Shakespeare read by Morgan Freeman

I hope you enjoyed this post, I went to an Ed Sheeran gig on Friday which was absolutely amazing, it was just him, a guitar and a loop pedal and it was one of the best gigs I have ever been to! He is just so incredibly talented!

This video is by Nina Nesbitt, she was one of the support acts for Ed, she was great and I hope you enjoy her beautiful cover of Stay awake by example!

If I was your girlfriend would you you let me dress you?... not that you're helpless, but sometimes those are the things that being in love's about
Prince


When you see me waking around with him I'm not just some other chick, I'm his girl...and I can be proud that I'm his girl because I know I'm good all by myself... I don't want to own him or control him... I'm the one he loves and trusts... it's all about affection not possession with us... so if you love someone let them be free...don't settle for ownership make it deep
Friends


Nothing is more common than the wish to be remarkable
Shakespeare

I thought growing up was something that happened automatically as you got older. But it turns out it's something you have to chose to do.

This is a video about Laird Hamilton the surfer; it demonstrates his amazing skill. It also has a wonderful message about having the courage to live life to the full rather than missing out on the best of life due to fear. I hope it manages to bring a smile to your Sunday. Thank you for visiting my blog.
