The Odds

She wanted to go to the seaside.
She did not have neither the money, the transport or the company to do so.
She thought of it often, dreamt of it always, drew in her notebook the beautiful beach before us. 
She even rehearsed the shhh shhh of the waves crashing on the yellow stone sand.

She had planned to see a friend for quite sometimes.
She called her friend.
The friend forgot about the appointment.

Friend: 'ouuuhh I completely forgot, what a fluke but please come. We are having an event on Friday, then we are going on Saturday to the beach. Please come. I'll book an hotel for us.
She:' (YES), yeah I'll come. I am a bit broke though, would it be ok?
Friend: Don't you worry about that, we'll have fun.

She is entertained, she goes to the beach and sleep in a nice hotel for not much.
What were the odds...

Blacklist

It may be time to create a blacklist of companies to avoid and definitely refuse to  work for: - Those which are more than 3 miles than my home - Those which does not allow me to work from home - Those which does not allow me to work fewer hours - Those which pollute with no sorry - Those with negative employee reviews - Those which do not design products that are repairable - Those which do not put the wellbeing of their staff first what else, add to the list

Missminimalist , Thank you

I was hooked to missminimalist blogs in the past four days, reading approximately 16 pages of individuals testimonies on how they started and enjoyed their minimalist journey. It opened my eyes on the endless minimalist lifestyles that any of us can implement. I admire the traveller, the spiritualist, the true materialist (as opposed to consumerist), the mindful, the artist, the mum, the dad, the designer who with intention choose to keep the things that add value to his/her life and get rid of the frivolous. Beyond just getting rid of things, there is not participating to our current wasteful society, it is recognising that we are all equal regardless of what we own and finally it is embracing freedom. It is why I love it. I encourage you to have a read/rid, I hope it will inspire you:  http://www.missminimalist.com/
