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 wish someone would have told me that, just because I'm a girl, I don't have to get married. 

Marlo Thomas

Then I realised all I was searching for was me
Ben Howard

Don’t worry so much about ‘not supposed to’

Chocolat

Courage is not the absence of fear but rather the judgment that something is more important than fear.  The brave may not live forever but the cautious do not live at all
The Princess Diaries

I hope you enjoyed this post, this is a song by Enya, I know that some people find Enya a bit cheesy but I absolutely love this song I always find it up-lifting and I hope it can make you feel the same this Sunday. Have a great week!

Go confidently in the direction of your dreams. Live the life you have imagined.
Henry David Thoreau

Our doubts are traitors, and make us lose the good we oft might win, by fearing to attempt.
William Shakespeare

I have spread my dreams beneath your feet. Tread softly because you tread on my dreams.
W.B. Yeats

I have included a video by 'improv everywhere' before but I just love their fun approach and I couldn't resist sharing this video with you. It made me smile for the solid 5 minute length of it and I hope it can do the same for you!

Have a fantastic week

I apologise for the lateness of this post, I have just moved into University halls and things have been a bit crazy!

I am and always will be the optimist. The hoper of far-flung hopes and the dreamer of improbable dreams.

Matt Smith, 11th Doctor Who

What is the point of being alive if you don't at least try to do something remarkable?

John Green, An abundance of Katherines

I go to seek a Great Perhaps
Francois Rabelais

Feminism is the radical notion that women are people. 
Cheris Kramarae and Paula Treichler

This week I'd like to mention a campaign called 'slut walk' it was started in Toronto, Canada after a female police officer was quoted saying that 'women should avoid dressing like sluts in order not to be victimised'. The idea of the movement is that everyone should feel safe in their community no matter how they dress. A woman should be able to leave the house naked and still retain the right to say no. 

Feminism has kind of gone out of fashion in this decade but you don't have to be a 'bra burner' to believe in women's rights and rape is such a devastatingly important issue that should always be high on the agenda. Blaming the victims will not solve the problem.

Anyway serious bit over if you'd like to find out more about slut walk this is an interesting article by Germaine Greer: http://www.telegraph.co.uk/health/women_shealth/8510743/These-slut-walk-women-are-simply-fighting-for-their-right-to-be-dirty.html, and this is the slut walk website: http://www.slutwalktoronto.com/. On another topic this is a video of Home by Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros that I think is utterly gorgeous and I  hope it manages to bring a smile to your sunday:

'Stars hide your fires let not light see my black and deep desires' 

Macbeth- Shakespeare

Love doesn't make the world go 'round.
Love is what makes the ride worthwhile.
Franklin P. Jones

Success isn't a result of spontaneous combustion. You must set yourself on fire. 

Arnold H. Glasow

Love looks not with the eyes, but with the mind, And therefore is winged Cupid painted blind.
William Shakespeare, Midsummer Night's Dream 1595

  If that didn't manage to shift those Sunday blues hopefully this might help, it's a fantastic improvisation video called Say Something Nice. I truly think that this world could be an immeasurably more wonderful place if we all said something nice to those we meet, especially when we least feel like it! Anyway I hope you enjoy it and that at least I managed to bring a smile to your Sunday!

Have a wonderful week!
