Hostage
Around 5 years old, I watched my mother cut and make my teddy bears picnic costume. 8 kids in a box trailer, waving to the crowd, we were all gold with white inserts for ears and belly. At 9 she made my tap costume, vibrant pink with a silver love heart in the middle of a twirling dress. I watched her make our heavy blue curtains on a old electric domestic singer. At 11 she made my primary school prom dress. From golden ears, pink with hearts, to flowers right to the floor dress with blue curtains as a back drop for photo's. Then mum got a part time job.

Contentment
Can we ever have it all? NO. Can we be satisfied with what we have? Yes. It is a truth that human wants are insatiable, but then there must be a balance. We all must know when to make do and be happy with what we have at the moment. In the world we live in today, our society is filled with numerous people who lack contentment.

This Time for Good!
“Resistance is the key to the greatest force in the universe.” ~ Eckhart Tolle I can't say I haven't fought hard in my life. But there is one area in which I overcame the challenges I faced without effort: quitting my eating disorder, losing weight, and keeping results easily for twenty-eight years.

The beauty in waiting
Hurry doesn't solve most things, likewise being in haste doesn't get you where you want to be within your calculated time. It rather makes us forget things that were not meant to be forgotten, make mistakes that are most times unwarranted, It makes us jump into uncalculated decisions.
