Morning Coffee Talk~50/365

Good Morning,

This image is one of my favourites that I have taken of my daughter and is both sentimental for me and expressive of her playful nature.

I was looking at it today and thinking of how important it is to remain lighthearted and free. We get that bashed out of us as we get older and what a a pity that is.

I tend to dedicate a part of my life to silliness and I don’t plan on giving that up any time soon. So cheers to the goofballs of this world, some of which are dear friends of mine. I miss you all and quarantine will end in a few days! Yay.

When all seems upside down

 

Have you ever had days when all seems to be going exactly the opposite of what you have planned? When the universe seems to be having a laugh at your expense? On days like this, I remember a very simple and old Arabic saying that has echoed in my ears though out my childhood years in Lebanon: “Do not hate anything lest it is meant to be good for you”. So simple, so direct, so wise, so good to remember on such days.

All is well!
