Friday morning beauty
Decided to get moving a little earlier and sit at Vida on Kloof before work to take in the morning vibe.
The parking dude said that its strictly 30min as the cops are around so I decided to take a to go and ventured up Kloof street.
I found "a shady spot" and by shady I don't mean dodge.Lol
So much for shade as its super humid this morn.
I found a stunning view,pulled out my book to read and just chilled.
Feeling good and ready to manage the day :)

People you may know-Ashok Patel
This morning and this evening I scrolled to the bottom of my facebook page only to see under the people you may know header "Ashok Patel" which is the name of my late dad.
I felt an immediate blow to my tummy on both occassions.
Well of course there are other Ashok Patels in the world but you don't expect it to come up on facebook!
Strange feeling.....

feeling of uncertainty
In a little bit of an irritable mood cos its the start of the year and I feel like getting my hands on a crystal ball to see where my year takes me.
I am trying to manage my thoughts and feelings as best possible and over the past few days have been doing some morning and evening relaxation exercises,writing in my new gratitude journal for 2011 and been listening to Deepak Chopras tune on the Budhha bar cd.
Def helps big time.I have a great feeling that something big is coming my way.Stay tuned :)

2011 my best year yet!
So having received many wishes that I exceed the joys and achievements of 2010 I am breathing this wish in and starting to plot all that I desire and envision.
Life aint going to give anyone a chance to hit a pause button so as I have done in 2010 I am diving into new adventures and exploring more opprotunities in life.
Recently I have not been enjoying work and for the first time I have had sunday blues which never happens to me nor do I have a pang in my tummy on the way to work but somehow these feelings are sneaking in and I know why.
I am thirsty for something new and challenging and I am yearning for more growth and I have reached end within my role.
I am always one to look for the silver lining and turnaround feelings that I don't like and I make the most of where I am in every moment however I think I have now hit a wall where that well is low on fuel to fulfill me stagnating in my growth.
It has been coming on for a while and I wanted to see world cup through and managed to keep creative at work and busy and take on a fun additional role.
I wanted to see through a final xmas season too and improve on service stds for this period vs previous years and I feel a personal fulfillment within me and now its time to move on.
As my aunt said in her message "This is it Sue.Its going to be the best year of your life thus far.This is my prayer for you.And my prayers are always answered."

nostalgia
Thinking of these past few days with mum.
Was super special watching dvds with her and chilling.
It is as if she is making up for all the times I had longed to go to the movies with her when living in Durbs.
Mum was not always open to it.In my mind I thought mum was not for it as she won't make it comfortably without a cig.
That's how I summed it up however mum said again today that she has never been a movie person but has enjoyed these dvds we have been watching together.
I called this post "Nostalgia" as mum told me a few stories about her past.Pleasant stories maybe not at the time when unfolding but real interesting.
Mum spoke a lot abt her days in theatre and this new level of understanding and respect grew within me.
I also realised that when we as kids needed our mum at times for support and care in certain situations she appeared distant as she might have forgotten to remove her doctors cap.
Mum really touched many peoples lives,experienced and saw things we can't imagine and wow life flys by where she finds herself now looking back at that role she once played.
Mum rcvd many special calls over these few days from people from different aspects in her life which moved me deeply.Hearing their care,concern and willingness was so heart warming.
