Italy 2010!!

I went to Italy this October 20th-24th for my friend's wedding Gemma and Marcus Risden, a beautiful wedding I had an amazing time. It's a shame I dont have a digital camera, I had to 'borrow' this from 'someones' facebook album!


So if anyone feels like donating a cool digi cam please do!! You're missing out on all the great things I get up to every day like washing dishes, hoovering and sit ups...

Unforgiveness - The killer attitudes of unforgiveness

I came to realise this week that unforgiveness is beyond holding a 20 year grudge or suffering the affects of an early life trauma and not being able to let it go. I've started to see it in our attitudes to things and to people that I never really connected to unforgiveness until now.

Being over Critical, Judgmental or Vengeful, have an aspect of unforgiveness that we justify all the time. We may never relate it to being unforgiving because we can assume anything to do with unforgiveness comes over a long period of time. Forgiveness is such an important tool that we can use to make the most out of our relationships, people will always let us down and we have the freedom to decide whether we will carry that baggage of disappointment or just to get over it and it go. It’s important to learn how someone else’s character, habits and ‘flaws’ can affect the way you will relate to each other, but judging them and labelling them permanently having seen something you don’t like is definitely unforgiving. Everyone has the right to be forgiven and the chance to change and develop. Baring in mind none of us are perfect. What we may see as acceptable can be totally unforgivable to someone else.

I’m trying to keep this short and snappy, it’s just something to consider. Why do you feel it’s necessary to point out someone’s flaws? Why will anything that person does, never be completely acceptable to you? Why are you so quick to throw something back in their face? We often say things that never need to be said or pointed out; my mum makes the point of being constructive not destructive at all times.

Question your motive and be real about why you say and respond the way you do. Some of us will find that we’ve forgotten our own flaws or are trying to hide them behind someone else’s. It can take just a minute to display unforgivness by taking revenge in something that we say or do or making a negative comment just based on your own ideas about someone.

Don’t let that be you!! It starts with a decision that you can make now and work on it. Not everyone has had early life trauma or suffered great disappointment but everyone is in danger of being trapped by an unforgiving attitude.

You can never go wrong.

Minicab Madness

So I call for a minicab to take me somewhere (obviously) and do a pickup on the way... not too difficult right? As I walk towards the car he opens the door to put some rubbish on the floor (and yes leaves it there) Nothing major, everyone is different and not everyone knows that littering is illegal :-/ I confirm my destination and he takes off munching on plum after plum spitting the seeds out of the window! This is where I should have said ' mate, it's cool I'll walk'.


So he's MUNCHING/SPITTING AWAY (nasty eating squelchy sounds) AHH! We arrive early at the pick up and he then tells me he'll charge me extra because he has to wait and when I get back to the car he's on the phone, shouting in his native language and has us sitting there for 5minutes! I know you're thinking, surely you've walked off by this point. I tried the whole patience thing... He drives the car while on the phone and takes me to the wrong destination, BLASTS the radio as if were on a road trip or in a rave, is it my hair that told him I liked ChoiceFM? We nearly crashed at least 6 times and the car wasn't even clean!!! An absolute disaster! 


CAB DRIVERS PLEASE TAKE YOUR JOB SERIOUSLY. If not don't bother please, there are a lot of people out there who are are out of work and would do much better job than you. Driving is not enough, it's a service mate!!


If I had his picture I would have shown the world BEWARE  OF THIS NONSENSE CAB DRIVER!!


It did make me think though, I could be just as slack in my own life, my work or my friendships or whatever. You can really learn a lesson from anything!


Maybe next time it wont be such a nightmare.

Hey Guys!!

So the deal with this blogg? I just think we all see, say and experience so much that it should be effectively recorded, and seeing as I don't have a scribe nor a bibliographer (if thats a word) I will record some of my thoughts, experiences and ideas on this bad boy! Then the day when I have to prove to my future children that I used to be cool; it will all be retrievable on the internet because 'they' keep everything!! (conspiracy)

I'm saved and I love Jesus Christ so you'll get a bit of that on here but also pic/vids from my cake and custard parties, gigs with ICI (In Christ's Image) and just a whole load of 'What was that about?' - which is always hilarious!

I hope you enjoy, comment, SUBSCRIBE, email me with random questions and not so random ones too!

All Love, Cake and Custard!!
