It was in the President hotel in Geneve that I spotted a thin white marble where you could place your soap bar.

It was so clean and neat, it didn’t leave the soap residue you see in all other soap dishes 🧼

I started looking for that item in the UK, and the closest was TKMax

If soap dish producers could start developing a smaller version, and resistant to impact, more people would embrace soap bars, and in turn we would be able to reduce the amount of plastic that we produce, consume and that enters the food chain through polluted seas

And the plastic industry could look into doing things that are more useful

If capitalists changed themselves to inventor investors, and if activists changed themselves to negotiators, the conversations would take a different tone

If we want capitalists to change, we have to talk to them in money language

By making capitalists angry, we get this behaviour we see more and more, where they reject anti woke anti anything that isn’t in their interests

The name of the game is “make them feel good”

If we keep pointing fingers, blaming, they get their back up and will not collaborate

Madness is doing the same over and over expecting different results

A little kindness to the person you are trying to communicate with goes a long way

Would you use a soap dish? Loving mine ☺️

What’s the bravest thing you’ve ever said? - asked the boy

“Help” - said the horse

by

How do you help someone who you hear is suffering from abuse?

“They need to request help themselves” they said

Why do some people put up with living in abusive relationships?

When they asked the people who escaped abusive relationships, they all had one thing in common

“I collected so many bad pictures of him in my mind, one day I had enough, I no longer wanted to be there”

It reminds me of the song “Mirala, miralo” by Alejandra Guzman “Es facil perdonar cuando se quiere de veras”

It says it’s easy to forgive when you really love someone

Perhaps isn’t love, but a belief they hold, that they have no escape, that there is no way out, that things might change

“I don’t know many people who would survive financially without their partner”

A partner to survive with, that is abusive 😵‍💫

Check your belief system

I hope you find the courage to leave the abusive relationship 🙏🏻❤️

There is help for those who want it

I would have never guessed how much I’d love 🥰

I spent decades thinking they were a bit too cheesy

What changed my mind was watching the movie of . Suddenly I understood the of their , they added a story to it

People were praising , a virtual concert in , and I had this in my “to do” list

My favourite band “Garbage” (nothing further from my usual commercial pop) were coming to London, so I jumped at the opportunity of seeing both at once

Strangely enough, as soon as I booked both events, the song stuck in my mind was “Gimme gimme gimme”

It was in a rather isolated area of London,

There were lots of women dressed in sequins ready to have a good time, I felt slightly underdressed for the occasion 😊

It was only then I learned they used to be 2 happy married couples singing, and when they broke up, they could not find the joy to together again
You can hear their lyrics in “The winner takes it all”

It is they used to bring back the impossible ❤️ and that they finally got together, if only for a few new songs

After my weekend in London my mind kept singing all of their songs, they left such a long lasting impression on me, it is certainly the “discovery” of this year for me 😊 I don’t think there is a song I disliked from their epic show

means little girl in and I can’t help but wonder how many people found comfort in these lyrics

People came from all places just to have a proper Abba time, a lady saw them 6 times already, they touched so many people’s hearts 😊

From 1-10, how much do you like Abba? It’s an 11 for me 😊🥰






From their site:

Blending cutting-edge technology, spectacular lighting, and some of the most beloved songs ever written, ABBA take to the stage in a whole new way.

In a stunning, purpose-built arena, one of the most popular groups in history appear as digital avatars in a ‘ground-breaking’ (Metro) concert that really ‘needs to be seen to be believed’ (BBC)

01/07/2024

Happiness is a state of non-contradictory joy- a joy without penalty or guilt, a joy that does not clash with any of your values and does not work for your won destruction, not the joy of escaping from your mind, but using your mind’s fullest power.

Happiness is possible only to a rational man, the man who desires nothing but rational goals, seek nothing but rational values and finds his joy in nothing but rational actions.

A desire to live does not give you the knowledge required for living. And even man’s desire to live is not automatic: your secret evil today is that that is the desire you do not hold.

Your fear of death is not a love of life and will not give you the knowledge needed to keep it.

Man must obtain his knowledge and choose his actions by a process of thinking, which nature will not force him to perform.

Man has the power to act as his own destroyer—and that is the way he has acted through most of history.”

You seek escape from pain. We seek the achievement of happiness.

You exist for the sake of avoiding punishment. We exist for the sake of earning rewards.

Threats will not make us function, fear is not our incentive. It is not death we wish to avoid, but life that we wish to live.

“I swear by my life and my love of it that I will never live for the sake of another man, nor ask another man to live for mine.”

If the rest of them can survive only by destroying us, then why should we wish them to survive? Nothing can make it moral to destroy the best. One can’t be punished for being good. One can’t be penalized for ability.”

One of the 1168 pages I once read for “Atlas shrugged” from Ayn Rand

I met the moon for coffee
It was Friday night I think
When she watched me hardly sleeping
And invited me for drinks

We found ourselves a table
In the middle of the night
And the constellations twinkled
Like a thousand fairy lights

She asked me how I’d been
As she poured coffee from a pot
For she said she’d watched me
Waking up at midnight quite a lot

I said my brain was far too full
My mind was always on
And when I woke it felt as if
I was the only one

The only one who lay awake
Whilst I sat on my bed
With thoughts that raced at lightning speed
Around my busy head

The only one who watched the clock
Tick one and two and three
Who laid awake and worried
Whilst the world was fast asleep

My thoughts were stuck in orbit
And I couldn’t pull them back
As they preferred to swim against
A sky so vast and black

The moon said simply nothing
But she opened up a book
And I saw it was a diary
So I took a closer look

And listed there were names of people
All around the world
And all the thoughts and worries
That the moon had overheard

Just then, my eyes were drawn towards
The name that was my own
And that was when the moon said
“See, you shouldn’t feel alone”

And then she pulled me close
Using the night sky as a blanket
And said “I know you sometimes feel
So lonely on this planet

But when you cannot sleep,
Get up and watch me from your room
And you’ll see so many others
Having coffee with the moon”
