A Positive Inspirational Story

When you thought I wasn't looking is a message every adult should read, because children are watching you and doing as you do, not as you say.


When you thought I wasn't looking, I saw you hang my first painting on the refrigerator and I immediately wanted to paint another one.

When you thought I wasn't looking I saw you feed a stray cat, and I learned that it was good to be kind to animals.

When you thought I wasn't looking, I saw you make my favourite cake for me and I learned that the little things can be the special things in life.

When you thought I wasn't looking I heard you say a prayer, and I knew there is a God I could always talk to and I learned to trust in God.

When you thought I wasn't looking, I saw you make a meal and take it to a friend who was sick, and I learned that we all have to help take care of each other.

When you thought I wasn't looking, I saw you give of your time and money to help people who had nothing and I learned that those who have something should give to those who don't.

When you thought I wasn't looking, I saw you take care of our house and everyone in it and I learned we have to take care of what we are given.

When you thought I wasn't looking, I saw how you handled your responsibilities, even when you didn't feel good and I learned that I would have to be responsible when I grow up.

When you thought I wasn't looking, I saw tears come from your eyes and I learned that sometimes things hurt, but it's alright to cry.

When you thought I wasn't looking, I saw that you cared and I wanted to be everything that I could be.

When you thought I wasn't looking, I learned most of life's lessons that I need to know to be a good and productive person when I grow up.

When you thought I wasn't looking, I looked at you and wanted to say, 'Thanks for all the things I saw when you thought I wasn't looking.'

Each of us (parent, grandparent, aunt, uncle, teacher or friend) influence the life of a child. How will you touch the life of someone today?

Work Place Headaches

A lot and I mean ALOT of people in my workplace suffer from migraines and headaches. I came across this excerpt from ‘The Secret’ today which reminded me of what I do daily when this problem occurs.

When someone is always talking about their bloody headache and making sure 20 other people around them know about it too? I well talk about how healthy I feel and fit and how I jumped out of bed at 5am in the morning. What’s the difference? NOTHING... You want us to know about your headache, and I want YOU to know about my HEALTH!

When you focus with someone on a problem they are having, you are not helping them or you, because you are both adding energy to the problem. You are also both attracting more “Like’ problems to you. Knowing this, it’s very important for you and the other person to focus on what you both want. The person with the problem should be encouraged to speak about what they want instead of about the problem, which is what they don’t want. The problem arose in the first place from the person thinking or talking about what they didn’t want, so the chain reaction must STOP.

Help those close to you be encouraging them to speak the words of what they want. That is always the solution.

Two People I Would Love to Meet - FOODIES

I’ve been doing a whole load of research lately and I have stumbled across two amazing women! Sarah Wilson and Samantha Gowing.

Both their approach to food is amazing, healthy and inspiring. I have downloaded Sarah's E-Book called "I Quit Sugar" for only $15 and I have benefited so much from this. Sarah is an Australian media personality, journalist and blogger with an integrated voice across television, radio, magazines, newspapers and online. She’s the former editor of Cosmopolitan magazine and was the host of the first series of Master Chef Australia, the highest rating show in Australian TV history. She’s now the host and program developer for Foxtel’s Lifestyle YOU, writes a weekly column for Sunday Life magazine about how to have a better life, and is a regular guest on Channel 7′s Sunrise.

Ok, so its not for everybody, but I'll tell you that MY body is loving this way of life as much of it as it can take. I’m not religious about this in anyway but when the opportunity is around for me to SWAP it I do and I have more energy, I’m a happier person to be around and people who whinge and whinge at me about trivial stuff, I don't give them my energy but quiet nods and then more on along my day!

I can not afford to give my energy away to people with high opinions any more. I am more sensitive than others and find these people grab my energy levels and then they get all topped up and ready to find the next person to have a whinge to about, well, really, NOTHING!!!

Then there is Samantha Gowing a therapeutic chef, an award-winning clinical nutritionist and a renowned teacher of FOOD AS MEDICINE. Born, bread and raised in the inner city of Melbourne, Sam now lives in Byron Bay, New South Wales where she enjoys the beautiful beaches, great surf and revered produce and lifestyle of the Northern Rivers region. She writes a popular gluten free recipe blog called Bitter Sweet Sour and is enjoying her new role as Head Chef at the brand new Cabarita Ocean Retreat.

Having a father as a Chef I have always been intrigued with food and the benefits it has. Its just sad that the big companies are injecting our food with Fructose, preservatives, additives and alike that our.. well MY body cannot handle anymore...

If you would like to pop on over to them and say Hi, please do so:
