Be bold and mighty forces will come to your aid

image sourced from: flickr.com

 The original quote is actually: “Go at it boldly, and you'll find unexpected forces closing round you and coming to your aid” however, it is sometimes cited as "Be bold and mighty forces will come to your aid."

This was quote was by a Canadian author and pastor Basil King, when he was speaking about overcoming fear. This quote speaks about courage.
I think it means that if you are willing to be daring and courageous in your acts then you will always find help. Someone will always be willing to assist those who are brave enough to ask for help.


HAPPINESS


Happiness uplifts me
It fills my heart, my mind and my soul
And it gives me the strength I need
It is a good feeling that enters my mind each day
And takes my sadness away, fills me with joy
Makes me excited and thrilled, warms my heart and soul each day
Gives me a sense of relief, welcomes me each morning when I get up
Happiness can be seen in my eyes.

If not now, then when?



What are you waiting for? This is not giving you permission to go out and spend until you drop. I am talking about all the things you say you want to do, but put it off for various reasons. You know what I am talking about, it is the weight you want to lose, the exercise you put off, the class you want to take, but put off. The business you want to start, or the habit you want to break.

Let’s be honest, anything worthwhile is difficult, because if it were easy everyone would do it. Do not wait or put things off anything, just get up and do it before you end up regretting yourself.

Do you celebrate the things you do have?


I never celebrate the things I have because I think I don’t have things worth celebrating. Other people have achieved much more than I do, so the things I have achieved mean little to me and I just don’t think it’s worth celebrating small achievements.

I perhaps should change my attitude towards myself because every little thing I have should count for something and should be celebrated.  From now on every small be it small or big I’m going to celebrate it because it is God’s will that I have the things that I have and other people have nothing and I have more than them.

Watch this space.


I HAVE BIG PLANS FOR MY FUTURE SO YOU BETTER WATCH THIS SPACE, SOMETHING BIG IS GOING TO HAPPEN....................

Which activities make you lose track of time?

Image sourced from: timeanddate.com



I only have one activity that makes me lose track of time, and that activity is television. I just love sitting in front of the TV and watch all of my favourite programmes, or even new programmes that I have never watched.

Without TV my life would be boring, I can’t spend a day without watching it. Some people would die if they don’t have their cell phones with them but I, for one don’t care much about a cell phone, I all care about is TV.  Whenever I seat in front of a TV I forget about everything else around me and just focus on it.

My favourite Cat in the hat book is.....because


My favourite Cat in the hat book is how the Grinch stole Christmas because the book questions the commercialization of Christmas. It subtly exposes greed and promotes the values of love and community with smartness, humour, and flawlessly constructed rhymes.

When I was young I loved Christmas and the book tells the young and old that the spirit of Christmas is true even if there are no presents and decorations. Christmas spirits should never changed despite the challenges that occur before Christmas.

When you’re her age, (over 80) what will matter to you most?


When I’m over 80 the thing that will matter most is my family, when you've reached that age the only thing that is important is family. You only think about them and if they are happy and are united as a family and not having quarrels.

Another thing that will matter most would be my life; I would want to live a healthy and happy life. I don’t want to think about death but live life like a young adult.

What is the difference between living and existing?


The difference between living and existing

Living is living you’re life the way that you want and being happy with the way things are going in it. Living is being able to breathe fresh life and being noticed by the people are around you. It is doing things the way that they are suppose to happen and just being able to enjoy life.

Existing is being alive but not being noticed. When you exist you are just in the space of living and not entirely happy with your life. You are there but not fulfilling anything in your life and are alive just by name and not by your doings.

I am living and not existing........

My big fat BIG dream


My big fat BIG dream is to travel; I haven’t been out of South Africa or even Cape Town for that matter. Firstly I want to visit all the beautiful cities we have here in South Africa before heading to countries overseas.
I want to see all the places that people talk about and that I see on TV and on the internet. I want to visit each and every place in the world if possible. I also want to say “been there, done that, burnt the t-shirt”.

Do you think crying is a sign of weakness or strength?


Crying could be a sign of weakness or strength depending on the situation you’re crying about. Crying over a boyfriend or girlfriend because they dumped you is a sign of weakness, crying for something good that happened in your life (the tears of joy) are a sign of strength, because you are crying over something that makes sense not over a small thing like being dumped.

Conventional is a good fallback position isn't it


Conventional is a safe approach to life; however you cannot gain great things if you do not risk great loss. Changes can be a scary thing when embarking on it, but the rewards can be well worth it, so be extraordinary.

Time or money?

image taken from: mygrassblog.net

Time and money are both important in life, so we need both of them to live. But to some people the other is more important than the other one. To some money is more important than time and vice versa, but you can’t spend money without time and you need time to have money.

If I had to choose between the two, I would definitely choose time, because I still need time to live my life and do all the things I desire in my life. To me money is not important but time is very essential.

You cannot chase two rabbits at the same time


You cannot chase two rabbits at the same time, this true because while you trying to chase one the other one has already ran away, so it is best to only chase one at a time.

It is better to focus on one thing at a certain time and not on two or more, because in the end you will lose focus on one of the things you’re busy with. It is the same as juggling for the first time, you will not be able to juggle five things at the same time and one of them is bound to fall while you are busy trying to juggle.

Take things one step at a time and they will easily fall into place and not try to do them at the same time.

What did you want to be when you grew up?





When I grew up I always wanted to be an actress. I saw myself being in the limelight and becoming the greatest star. I still have the love for the acting field but it seems like it does not pay much, and I always pictured seeing my name being screened at the end of a movie or series.

If I had to change roles and become the star that I want I would not hesitate even if it does not pay huge amounts, but just being seeing on TV everyday would make me the happiest girl on the planet.

"Nothing is more dangerous than an idea, when you only have one idea" (Alain)


An idea is just whatever is before the mind when one thinks.

Alain stated that, “Nothing is more dangerous than an idea, when you only have one idea”. By this he means it is safer to have more than one idea, otherwise one is forced to only try that idea. What happens if that one idea isn’t successful? Then what? You are going to be stuck and will not have a way forward because you only had one idea and not multiple plans in case the one doesn’t work out.

Plan B, C, D and E is always necessary to have than only plan A!!!!!!!

would you break the law to save a loved one?



Yes, I would definitely break the law to save a loved one. The only person I would do such a thing for is my mother, she means everything to me and if breaking the law is the only option to save her, I would not think twice of doing it.
My mother is my rock, I would do anything for her even if it means putting my life in the line.

Have you figured the second head fake?




image taken from: lameezmohd.blogspot.com

Randy Pausch’s first head fake was that life should not be about reaching ones dreams but about leading a good and satisfied life. It is not the end result but the means that matter. The second head fake, his speech was not for the students but for his children. He wanted them to know the kind of man he was and teach them what he had learned.

If you lead your life the right way ... the dreams will come to you.
