100 mph

This week has been one of those crazy weeks, you know the ones where everything feels like its going about one hundred miles an hour, and if you blinked, you'd miss it? We all have them, and sometimes there's nothing we can do, apart from deal with it.. That's just the way it is.

This week, I feel like I've not had chance to sit down and just relax, it's been crazy! I wouldn't have it any other way though, I might get a bit grumpy, and majorly tired, so I apologise if you're someone that I rant at or something, I don't mean it, its the lack of sleep. :)

But, on one of my journeys home this weekend, I wasn't paying too much attention to the speed I was going, and when I looked down I was going WAY over the speed limit... I was on the motorway, so I'll leave it up to your imagination to decide what speed I was going...

But anyway, as I looked at how fast I was going it reminded me of my life, I am always rushing around like a headless chicken, with a 'todo' list that's longer than my arm. There's no point in complaining about it, I just deal with it. I kinda makes life more interesting, and the things have to be done... 

Then today, I was listening to the radio on the way to church, it was the only thing keeping me awake if I'm honest.. But, as I listened to the lyrics of a song, I realised, sometimes we just don't take a minute to be happy, and we don't take a minute to just smile, we focus on all the things we have to be doing, or on things that aren't too important, like money and all that jazz...

If we just took a minute to breathe, and to reflect, and to smile, life would be so much easier, none of the things we were caught up in would matter, well at least for few minutes anyway...

Jessie J's Price Tag -

Seems like everybody’s got a price,
I wonder how they sleep at night.
When the tale comes first,
And the truth comes second,
Just stop, for a minute and
Smile
Why is everybody so serious!
Acting so damn mysterious
You got your shades on your eyes
And your heels so high
That you can’t even have a good time.
Everybody look to their left (yeah)
Everybody look to their right (ha)
Can you feel that (yeah)
Well pay them with love tonight

It’s not about the money, money, money
We don’t need your money, money, money
We just wanna make the world dance,
Forget about the Price Tag
Ain’t about the (ha) Cha-Ching Cha-Ching.
Aint about the (yeah) Ba-Bling Ba-Bling
Wanna make the world dance,
Forget about the Price Tag.

Sometimes life is busy, sometimes life is crazy, sometimes life is going at a pace that's too fast, but... "Just stop for a minute, and smile."

So this picture seems a bit random, but we all just stopped for a minute, and smiled.

I'm grateful I have my little sister and brothers in my life.

They make me smile!
