Yellow

I swear- I thought yellow was my favourite colour- 

Until this colour blocking fad came to be- 

And then, my colour psyche became pretty messed up- 

So for a while I just did as the mood dictated- 

But today yellow came to mind- and yellow is creative,sunshine, happiness, youth, fun- 

Even India.Arie sings- 

'Every time I hear you say hello,

All I see is yellow....

...Stay with me in the yellow'

So am back to being yellow...

Any kind of bird...

Unlike last week, this week has truly come to an end. Last week was 7 full-on days with no week-end in sight. So I'm sitting here wondering how my life wish list changed from being married at 27 with 5 kids to aimlessly roaming the earth....like a pied wheatear...This small bird migrates between 3 continents-from the extreme southeast of Europe to China,India and northeastern Africa. So I'm taking this moment to be a bird, any kind of bird...whose only reason of being is to soar and fly...

Laughter

The other day, Funmi- mother to Leo walked in looking smashing in her hot pink knee length dress and navy blue blazer. You see, Funmi's laughter, just like Tosin's is contagious- I laugh when these two laugh. The latter reminds of Muttley from Wacky Races. As their laughter brings deep tickles to my soul, I hope these lift your spirits to unimaginable heights...
