Quote: Ladies and Gentlemen of the class of ?99 If I could offer you only one tip for the future, sunscreen would be it. The long term benefits of sunscreen have been proved by scientists whereas the rest of my advice has no basis more reliable than my own meandering experience?I will dispense this advice now. Enjoy the power and beauty of your youth; oh nevermind; you will not understand the power and beauty of your youth until they have faded. But trust me, in 20 years you?ll look back at photos of yourself and recall in a way you can?t grasp now how much possibility lay before you and how fabulous you really looked?.You?re not as fat as you imagine. Don?t worry about the future; or worry, but know that worrying is as effective as trying to solve an algebra equation by chewing bubblegum. The real troubles in your life are apt to be things that never crossed your worried mind; the kind that blindside you at 4pm on some idle Tuesday. Do one thing everyday that scares you Sing Don?t be reckless with other people?s hearts, don?t put up with people who are reckless with yours. Floss Don?t waste your time on jealousy; sometimes you?re ahead, sometimes you?re behind?the race is long, and in the end, it?s only with yourself. Remember the compliments you receive, forget the insults; if you succeed in doing this, tell me how. Keep your old love letters, throw away your old bank statements. Stretch Don?t feel guilty if you don?t know what you want to do with your life?the most interesting people I know didn?t know at 22 what they wanted to do with their lives, some of the most interesting 40 year olds I know still don?t. Get plenty of calcium. Be kind to your knees, you?ll miss them when they?re gone. Maybe you?ll marry, maybe you won?t, maybe you?ll have children,maybe you won?t, maybe you?ll divorce at 40, maybe you?ll dance the funky chicken on your 75th wedding anniversary?what ever you do, don?t congratulate yourself too much or berate yourself either ? etc etc BAZ LUHRMAN-
About Me
I am a mum of 3 teenagers who wanted to 1. Get more excersize 2. Save money 3. Eat, cook & store my own veg & fruit. So......I went for an allotment!!! Not realizing how much it would change my life........
The way I look at everything has changed, food, cooking, wildlife, weather, people, health, time, priorities I could go on & on & on!!!
Just thought I would add that when I took over my 20 rod allotment end of July 2007 it had been unused for 8 years. It was full of brambles, nettles, grasses, thistles & everybody elses unwanted rubbish. Somewhere I have the original picks which I will now rake (*scuse the pun) rake ha ha out and plant (god I'm good, well somebodies got to say it!) them in with my other piccies..
