Day 133: The most life-enhancing choice (MLEH)




I have decided to live my life according to a new philosophy (it's old really, new for me). In every given choice situation, no matter how bad choices are, I am going to try and think what the most life enhancing choice is, for me or someone else. So today I decided that the most life enhancing choice (MLEH) is to enjoy our garden. These flowers (no idea what they are) I had in a pot last year, I grew them from bulbs, then my cat decided they were great to sunbade on and squished them. So I used my proven gardening technique then: put it in the ground, it either will or won't, and here is the glorious result that I had to capture on camera. 

Our garden is truly magical at the moment which makes a difference to our neighbours garden where they have ripped everything up. The old lady decided then to mow the grass without cleaning branches from all trees and shrubs they have destroyed...and it broke :) They have managed to destroy an entire habitat for wildlife and they refer to our lovely bees as 'wasps'..and they have two annoying little yappie dogs that never get to go for a walk...but the MLEH is to ignore that and focus on our beautiful garden. I should really share a picture of my compost, I am very proud of it as it is a source of much food for birds and I love digging in it. It represents all that is good in life. The rubbish turns into beautiful, rich, black soil that feeds everything:) I had a good MLEH day today.

Day 36: Time for a photo

I haven't done any photos yet, so I decided to rectify that. We often go to a bird centre close to us, called Gauntlet. Saying that we always choose a really cold day to go on. Anyway they have some great birds but they are also very caring and responsible about their birds. They also happen to feed them chicks so this picture is not for sensitive souls but it is a great picture of an owl (don't ask me what kind). Owls are my favourite birds, I was a bit miffed as at some point I read they were really stupid but they say that for cats too, so I don't believe that garbage. Owls are great. 



So great are they that I spontaneously made a sketch of an owl! That turned out a bit cross-eyed...



And then I decided to treat you to this great photo of me attempting to put rollers in my hair for the first time in my life, I'm 32 don't know if that is embarrassing or not, but hey there is always room for firsts. The hair was not looking to bad after that, no re-washing business needed so that was good:) Hair styling is definitely creative!
