It was rightly so the highlight of my day.
9:16 - I opened my guardian app on my way to work. Scroll down to get to the comments section and here it is:

'The French are right: tear up public debt - most of it is illegitimate anyway' by Razmig Keucheyan.

I am rightly french and highly involved with Positive Money. We have a group in Leicester that you are welcome to join if you are interested send us an email by clicking here

Thinking that 60% of public debt is most likely to be illegitimate and it is not even possible to name the debt holders makes me wonder why we are in such a state of austerity. Is it only there to favour our social elites? I am voting for a debt jubilee, right there!

Light a Match Under Your Dream

'' You have to Light a Match Under Your Dream'' she said. This was the line of the character Madam CJ Walker in Self-Made. It resonated so much with me that I had to stop the episode. What does she mean and what is my dream? There is more than one - sometimes too many to even be able to focus on one thoroughly. I decided to look through the internet to find out how one can possibly define their dream. I keep waking up each morning and find myself having a new dream for my life. Remnants of the past or the day before are still there. Yet new in-roads are created for me to move forward. I came across this article ''22 secrets to discovering your dream and living it'' I really did like Guy Kawasaki’s idea of creating a mantra as opposed to a mission statement for oneself.
