With the people from Puttinu Cares Cancer Support Group thought me how while finances are important it is the power of being happy, providing happiness and believing in providence that makes the real difference in life. Pity so many are lost in a rush for money nowadays. Thanks Puttinu! BEEEEEE HAPPY!

We grumble, we feel down, we feel frustrated and we send people here and there in our efforts to try and make life simpler! And yet we fail to do so. We want to be righteous....we actually believe we are somehow! We want things to stay as they should be.......or as we think they should be! I regret to admit that people are the ones who make life complicated. It takes so little to explain ones thoughts! and yet we refrain to...as we expect people to SEE THE(OUR) POINT. I might be strange, silly and stupid and yet i do not mind forgetting, i do not mind explaining.... ...it makes it so much easier. Ever thought of forgiveness? Ever thought of forgetting? Ever thought of looking ahead rather than backwards? try it.....and remind me to when i dont!

The story of the release of Ingrid Betancourt from the FARC rebels in Colombia has so many seemingly parallels to a well plotted, and shot at some studio in hollywood. I would not be surprised if some of the actions and strategies used to free the hostages as explained in the international media would have been deemed too fictitious had they been part of a screen play. But as far as we know this seems to have been a real life drama. However what probably is mind boggling for some is the reasons given for not killing any of the 60 rebels even though they could have supposedly done this quite easily basing on how things proceeded. The army colonal quoted on CNN.com said: "Colombian soldiers could have killed nearly 60 FARC members at the site of the planned handover,....We preferred to leave them with liberty and life because, in Colombia, we prefer life over death,". If that is a sincere depiction of facts well done all who participated in such a decision. A rare ex

Notwithstandingall the dangers being one implies considering i live in Malta, i would like to be a bird one day. the sense of freedom they provide when they simply open their wings and glide over the invisibly strong currents that overlook us, simply fills me with......envy. However its not just that. I wish i could glide the skies, getting a better view of the measures of the real world, so as to understand better how small i am and how any thing which might seem immense, is still limited to my small proportions and capacity of viewing the whole picture. I wish i could chirp my sleeping moments in a tree, getting a glimpse of a couple of windows or more in the process। Getting a better understanding of the diversity that exists in the world we all try so hard to portray as a single faceted coin. Realizing how different we all are when we are at home, in our comforts, from when we are acting our social roles. How difficult our comforts can become to live with and how limited c
