Life is Too Short to Buy Green Bananas

I write so my children and their children can pass on the silent messages of my life. If others choose to read it; it’s icing on the cake.

Sometimes I see reflections of times gone by and I write them down so I will never forget, because now I lose images and thoughts every single day.

Some days you meet someone who reminds you of a younger self and feel the need to document her inner and outer beauty.

The imaginary and real world collide every single day and immerse into one when you are not looking. Steer straight into reality before you miss it and get lost in false thoughts.

People will always have their own opinions- form your own.

Some people are just a-head of their time and live moment by moment and I admire them.

There is an inner child in everyone-  keep it safe in your pockets!

When we were young,  we wanted to be someone else sometimes, but parents guarded our reflections making sure we lived our childhood slowly. It’s better to be ourselves.

No matter what gossip lurks in the streets stand tall, be proud and live.

There are no second chances in life!  Celebrate life!

There are two sides to everyone and every story. Pick the one that is best for you and stand by it.

Remember you have always stood on your own two feet and if you falter; just get the heck back up!

Re-invent love again and celebrate it daily with others!

Be joyous and have no regrets as life is too short to buy green bananas !
