am i the only person who can be ready for something on time?!
someone i work with is getting married to our bosses son...and the person i'm meant to be getting a lift there with has just let me know they won't be ready to leave their's by half 7 (we're meant to be there at half 7....then there's the 25min drive to mine, then the 10min drive to the place)...and now it's half 7 and still no clue when they'll be ready.
lateness really is a pet hate - i don't understand it, I'm not on about 5 minutes here or there...but when you know when you're meant to be somewhere and you're nowhere close to that time, just because you aren't ready yet really does wind me up!
and breathe...

...to write a 'thank you' to the people on here...I've only been here a short while but it's amazing here. I love what this site does. It's so selfless...it's so inspiring.
I left facebook a while back because I didn't like what it was turning into – it was selfish, it was attention seeking, it was shallow. People talking indirectly to friends, family, partners through a status for the world to see, rather than actually telling them face-to-face that they loved them, or were thankful for them, or wished them luck – it was their way of letting everyone else know what they had. It wasn't about conversations anymore. No one asked to know, yet everyone shared. In a way, this had the potential to be an incredible movement, but all it came to was superficiality. No one cared to ask how people were. No one took time to listen unless it was to their own voice. (At least this was what my experience there turned into).
To me this site – DA – is full of strangers, I don't know anyone and I don't think anyone knows me. Yet you take the time to look and let me know you like something I have created. I love how I can read words by people from all across this world. I read words that I am moved by, inspired by, words I relate to, things I can aspire to...and I can let them know that I appreciate it, that I relate to it...with nothing to expect in return.
This is what life should be like - selfless giving, selflessly showing appreciation for others. A little of these things - positivity, empathy, understanding, belief, inspiration - can go a long way, and I truly believe that it is the small things that can make the biggest difference.
So thank you 'strangers' for helping me to see the good in the world again <3
