I’m listening to this beautiful Cuban son… Morenita by La Orquesta Magica de la Habana. And I’m reading about the earthquake on Haiti. Perhaps one is so used to blocking images of poor, destitute, helpless… It’s so far away to once own safety. But lately I have forced myself to look a second time…not just [...]

Exactly a week after the New Year made it’s entree, I am ready to make my New Year’s Resolutions. It’s not so much about resolutions but about goals. In many ways they are similar to last year. Having said that it doesn’t mean I achieved anything in the last year. If last year was about [...]

It wasn’t until today, the third of January I had time for reflection over the past year and set course for the year ahead. I love New Year, as it truly gives you a clean slate. The past is metaphorically buried in Old Year History, and after a while even that will turn into nostalgia. [...]

There comes a time in a woman’s life when she realises that everything she learned about being being sweet, well mannered and polite was all just a myth. I remember the first days in school that pretty much shaped the rest of my school years. The girls were all sitting politely in their chairs, raising [...]

Perfumes, like music, has an almost nostalgic [...]

I’m reading an excellent book, The First Crusade by Thomas Asbridge. The tagline “the roots of Conflict between Christianity and Islam” makes it all the more interesting. Although not a brick in book terms, it’s heavy and when I’m tired, sometime between the hour of 12 and 1 am, I manage to get past a [...]

This is about to become a really boring blog. I shall only write about shopping (which I never do), work (that I don’t have, but to make myself seem important write about anyways), and my sessions at the gym (which are surprisingly at a frequent ratio of about 4 times per week). Further, I shall [...]
