Happy Easter from Down Under 2018!

Last updated on April 16th, 2018 at 11:40 am

In Australia we are approaching Easter, a significant religious holiday for many. While I am do not belong to any church custom, I do a respect folks observances and their special traditions associated with this holy time.

When we were kids in New Zealand our TV stations played the Biblical hits. Truly this was this (with the greatest respect) where I received my religious education.

Watching Charlton Heston part the Red Sea in the 1956 tribute The Ten Commandments, was awe inspiring and still is.

I will be getting the DVD down from the shelves. Yes I own it.

Despite not coming from a Christian background I do believe the Ten Commandments area useful guide to live by.

Easter isn’t just about eggs and chocolates. Yes I do indulge in the brown delicious sweet!

I like to use it a a time for reflection.

It is a time where I am not working. What has passed in my life, people, habits or old beliefs? The death of things that not longer support me or help me grow. These can be a simple as changing an exercise routine.

It is an opportunity to bring about change with the ‘rising’. I ask how can I encourage and support myself and others to be their greatness? What works do I need to achieve in my mission of service?

How would you apply this to your relationship?

What do you need to do inspire for your partner? Is there anything you can do to enliven your partnership? Put some thought into it. Love to hear what you came up with and how it helped. Pop a comment in the box below.

Happy Mothers Day Mums!

Well my daughter was quick off the mark and rang me last Sunday to wish me a happy mothers day.

I felt like a bit of spoilsport after I had thanked her in telling her she was a week early 🙂

She shared some lovely sentiments with me about the love and support she has felt over the last few years in our relationship.

This really was the best present.

As she recently got engaged to long term boyfriend Dean it is really nice to see her hopes being realised. She has even given me a Grand dog Tyson. He is such a cutie.

To all you Mums out there – spoil yourself for the day.

Happy Mothers Day!
