Compromise is living with I

There is nothing worse than to compromise your sleep for the sake of relationships.
Yet, we do it all the time.
Look at the baby crying, the baby snoring, the baby wetting their bed.
Look at the phone flashing light, beeping and ringing in the morning light
The other, baby child or adult, the other, machine or gadget,  can be a monster in our life.
Well, get over it.
To live full stop is a compromise to make with I.

4 in 1 dream

You dream that you are in bed with four people.  On your left, a black fashionista with a smile from a toothpaste advert.  On my right, a chubby and shy woman smiling at you.  On her right, a business/lawyer man wearing a suite. You are sharing jokes with the fashionista and tell her how much you would like to get to know the business/lawyer person. She jokes that she would like to know a bit more the chubby shy one to see if she can rub on her. What is your inconscious mind trying to tell you?

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/

Finding a partner in the making

I love working on projects. I love working with others. When I started to be a volunteer coordinator for Positive Money in Leicester, I wanted to find a partner to create some events on the theme of money. This person had to be reliable, trustworthy and hard working.  I did not find the person through the various meetings and events which I organised or participated in. The individuals I have met were not there to collaborate in the way I wanted. They were looking to gain other social benefits. Eventually, one person revealed herself to be the right partner whilst I was volunteering to support her own scheme: Footpaths, a carbon footprint reduction community-based programme . I run some sessions with her as a co-facilitator. Through our preparation meetings, I shared my vision for Positive Money in Leicester and our two worlds merged. Since then, we are partners. Others got inspired and joined us to develop a taster and full day workshop on Money. After the taster...
