There are always two sides to every story and things are never as they first seem …
Of course you can do it! You’re stronger than you think
You can never force anyone to love you.
Live within your means and don’t take anything for granted.
Do whatever it takes to get the job done.
You can’t please all of the people all of the time.
Honesty is always the best policy.
It’s not WHAT you say, but HOW you say it.
Nothing lasts forever – accept the impermanence of life.
And chew with your mouth closed!
🙂
Love you Dad. Happy Father’s Day xxx

Crazyness.
I love you and I miss you,

I only remembered to take one photo on my birthday:
This was quite early on in the day, before about another 15 people arrived.
I need a bigger garden 😀
Thanks to @andrevr, @al_ice and @kambabe for letting me hijack their pics:
This is The Braai Master! Man, he did a GREAT job 😀
And then yesterday, I got to open all my pressies!
Just LOOK at how spoilt I was …
And it wasn’t over!
Today, my awesome team treated me to even MORE birthday spoils:
I am one lucky girl 😀
THANK YOU to EVERYONE who
messaged me
came to celebrate
gave me pressies
made me feel uber loved
shared my special day with me
I had an amazing birthday and I’m grateful to have been able to share it
with so many wonderful people, both online AND in real life.

Yes, YOU, the brave soul going to court today to testify against the 3 men who raped you at knifepoint.
You have all my love and respect after a year of hell, from which you have emerged an absolute winner. I am so proud of you!
And just in case you ever doubted that you were doing the right thing, here are some messages of support for you after I appealed for positive vibes to be sent your way today …
“Wow, sending her good vibes… hope the fucker rots!”
“wow, brave girl – lots of thoughts”
“XXX strong thoughts and prayers. all the way. such a brave and inspiring girl. XXX”
“wow! thats incredible! strongs and prayers!”
“Good luck to your friend. well wishes.”
“Sending MASSIVE vibrations her way! A tough cookie!”
“will be praying for strength and peace for your friend”
“Gosh! That really is incredibly brave!!”
“SA needs more women like her- please thank her for her bravery”
“wow, that’s incredibly brave and admirable. huge respect and support!”
“We’re all behind her 100% today….lots of strong thoughts!!!”
“A Brave woman. She has our support and prayers.”
Thank you for taking the stand and facing the wankers who did this to you (and other women).
You’re an inspiration and don’t you forget it!
