A friend posted the following quote on Facebook this morning and it hit a nerve. The meaning of life is to find your gift. The purpose of life is to give it away. – Pablo Picasso These days life is all about ‘finding your purpose’. For years this question has completely stumped me. How do …
Daily Ramblings – Molded by our experiences
I read a post the other day on Steemit about the fact that we are molded by our experiences. I’ve been mulling this over for the past week or so thinking of how to interpret it. Do I perceive this statement to be positive or negative? Do I want to reflect my life’s experiences? Especially …
Daily Ramblings – It’s Monday again
It is Monday morning and I feel compelled to come up with some amazing thoughts to start of the new week and normally I have tons of ideas but this morning…..nada, zip, no inspiration what to write at all! Truth be told…. The mind has gone a bit blank this morning. I’ve got a list …
Tripping down Memory Lane – Laaiplek /Velddrif
As I looked at my Facebook Memories this morning, incidentally one of my FAVORITE things about the app, I realized something. I’m more than just an island girl. I’ve actually been in quite a few places in my life and I’ve got some awesome pics to share. Photos that no one really gets to enjoy …
Random Ramblings – This Journey Called Life
I’m still within the morning hours frame this morning low and behold!! Although I’ve been thinking to rather change the heading for this to #randomramblings as I am often not in time for the morning posts that i’ve originally planned because often life gets in the way.

Morning Thoughts – How time flies
I am most probably one of the most UNORGANIZED/DISORGANIZED people you may ever have the (dubious) pleasure of meeting!! I do NOT plan my blogs ahead. I do NOT schedule posts! I do not have reminders on my phone! I am convinced I’ll just remember everything off the top of my head……hahahahha and I do…mostly! …
Morning Thoughts – Hello July! Where is my focus?
On my beach walk this morning I once again saw something that made me think. I saw an old man that was obviously out early to catch some fish before he started his day. What caught my attention, making me stop and watch him for a bit, was the care he took with cleaning his …
Morning Thoughts – Instant Friends – Almost like Instant Coffee – Just Better!
It’s a dreary wet Friday on my rock but I am not complaining as I am thoroughly enjoying the cooler weather although it has a slight impact on one’s mood I must admit. It puts me in a contemplative mood and I sit and think about life. Grey weather makes me feel grey too. Especially …
Morning Thoughts – Tired Thursday
It’s Thursday morning and I am TIRED!! Am I the only one feeling this? I am ashamed to say it out loud as I am not actually employed at the moment and I fill my day with activities and things of my own creation so I shouldn’t be allowed to complain or should I? Point …
Morning Post – All about giving
It is a wet Wednesday on my rock and I once again have some thoughts to share. Your greatness is not in what you have, but in what you give. What do we give of ourselves to others? Are you a money, gift or physical giver or are you someone who gives of your time, …
