Woke up this morning with a lovely drizzle outside. It was still dark and I snuggled up deeper into my feather duvet .... just 5 more minutes....

How much I have to be thankfull for! I spent a lovely weekend with family, had a proper South-African braai under a VERY hot African sun. A husband who adores me and whom I adore. Brothers and sisters and 4 loving parents. What more can I ask for?

My state of mind this morning, while it is raining considerably harder now than the light drizzle earlier, is that of love, peace and utter and total hope.

Hope for better things to come. Hope for health and wellness for my loved ones and hope for this feeling for everyone.

Take an extra 5 minutes, think about what you have and just be thankful! It kinda makes all the 'bad' things feel almost ... insignificant!
