“Beauty is everywhere. You only have to look to see it.”
- Bob Ross
I find something so cheerful about a collection of colourful lanterns, like this group I admired in a restaurant during my recent trip to Eastbourne. The elegant shapes, the jewel hues, the delicate calligraphy and painted images. They gave me a hankering to travel in Asia again, but for now I’ll just enjoy their beauty!

If you’re feeling disconnected from your creative self, Joanna Phoenix has the answer: Go Away! “Sometimes the entrenchment of our routine tricks us into thinking that there is only one way to live, and in leaving the familiar furrow, we see that there are countless.” If a holiday feels out of reach right now, why not plan a day trip instead? I will be!

Notice when you smile. Make a point today of noticing when you smile, and savouring the experience. What made you smile? Was it something funny, silly, kind? How often did you smile? How can you incorporate more things in your day that make you smile? Enjoy!
