Coronavirus Curbing the spread - WFH Day #21
Lockdown Day #20

Happy Thursday everyone, while we can't make too may new memories at the moment, we can reminisce on all our old memories, we spent most of Easter going through old photographs and remembering special holidays and moments we have had.

Lets hope this will all soon be over so we can make new memories, visit new places and hug the people we miss so much ♥♥ - Sending our thoughts and love to everybody today!

Happy Birthday to a lot of Special people out there, who would have known today would be such a popular day for birthdays, Happy Birthday Dad Rowe, Ann Pienaar, Larissa, Funeka, Mandy and of course Trevor and Kirstin's twins who turned 10 today! Hope you all have a lovely day.

Sharing a beautiful picture that Emily put on her Facebook page, taken in Disneyland Paris in 2015 with her cousin Brandon. Thanks for sharing the photo Bran.

Captain Corelli's Mandolin

Captain Corelli's Mandolin
Louis de Bernieres
Love is a temporary madness,
It erupts like
volcanoes and then subsides.
And when it subsides you have to make a
decision.

You have to work out whether your roots have so entwined together that it is inconceivable that you should ever part.
Because this is what love is.

Love is not breathlessness, it is not
excitement, it is not the promulgation of eternal passion.
That is just being "in love" which any fool can do. Love itself is what is left over when being in love has burned away, and this is both an art and a fortunate accident.
Those that truly love, have roots that grow
towards each other underground, and when all the pretty blossom have fallen from their branches, they find that they are one tree and not two.

Desiderata by Max Ehrmann

Go placidly amid the noise and haste,
and remember what peace there may be in silence.
As far as possible without surrender
be on good terms with all persons.
Speak your truth quietly and clearly;
and listen to others,
even the dull and the ignorant;
they too have their story.

Avoid loud and aggressive persons,
they are vexatious to the spirit.
If you compare yourself with others,
you may become vain and bitter;
for always there will be greater and lesser persons than yourself.
Enjoy your achievements as well as your plans.

Keep interested in your own career, however humble;
it is a real possession in the changing fortunes of time.
Exercise caution in your business affairs;
for the world is full of trickery.
But let this not blind you to what virtue there is;
many persons strive for high ideals;
and everywhere life is full of heroism.

Be yourself.
Especially, do not feign affection.
Neither be cynical about love;
for in the face of all aridity and disenchantment
it is as perennial as the grass.

Take kindly the counsel of the years,
gracefully surrendering the things of youth.
Nurture strength of spirit to shield you in sudden misfortune.
But do not distress yourself with dark imaginings.
Many fears are born of fatigue and loneliness.
Beyond a wholesome discipline,
be gentle with yourself.

You are a child of the universe,
no less than the trees and the stars;
you have a right to be here.
And whether or not it is clear to you,
no doubt the universe is unfolding as it should.

Therefore be at peace with God,
whatever you conceive Him to be,
and whatever your labors and aspirations,
in the noisy confusion of life keep peace with your soul.

With all its sham, drudgery, and broken dreams,
it is still a beautiful world.
Be cheerful.
Strive to be happy.

Glory Days ...
