What a fantastic Friday night !

the small things that matter ❤️

Every moment is a start. Hug yourself, hug someone else, smile from the heart, smile more, smile often, say I love you. Share the love ❤️

Love the rain ❤️

It's raining here in Brisbane! Can't help but fall in love over and over again, in the arms of the sounds, the smells, the feel of the dancing water as it pours it's heart out and tell us that change is in us all. To wash away out worries and pain. Let GO. Dance in the rain. LOVE is in us all. And, if it's not raining where you are, pretend it is. Pretend to be a dreamer, a wonderer.. For we are made up of 70% of water. We are the rain that beats life into our soul ❤️🙏

Happy Birthday Angie! 

Stay good and loving and kind. Don't let the ugliness of the world take you down! 

Be the best YOU that you can be. Always stay true to who you are and what you believe. 

Never alter yourself even when jealousy, ignorance and misunderstanding attempts to paint you differently. 

Only repay with love, kindness, and understanding. Always see the pot of "good" at the end of the rainbow. 

Make wise choices and well thought out decisions. Love everyone, even those who are difficult to love. Never give in. Never give up. Never quit with or without a fight. 

Know when you're wrong and admit it willingly. Don't ever let anger get in the way of love. 

See beyond the surface appearance of those around you:

Their smiles don't always mean happiness. Their anger may mean more than a momentary disappointment, and quite possibly could be the result of a lifetime of repeated disappointment, loneliness, helplessness and exhaustion. 

Learn to recognize the different types of tears and don't miss an opportunity to ask how you can be of help in reaching out and helping others, it brings happiness to ourselves. 

Making others smile, is addicting. Cry often. Let tears flow. Then pick up and move on. Go out and grab life and live it. Be safe. I love you! Always.
