whooo, Novemeber already, where does the time, i can't believe that its nearly the nearly the end of the year, ir seems liek yesterday the fireworks went off over the River Thames to welcome in 2010.

I can't actually wait for 2011, 2010 was a pretty crap year for me and I for one will be glad to see the back of it. Hopefully 2011 will be a much better year.

‎"Never force love, if you let it go it will come back in a different way, and it will keep on trying to tell you the truth" -

Translated from the closing theme song of the cartoon Sailor Moon in German.

This is a absoltely beautiful quote, but one i can't take credit for, this was posted on facebook wall, by one of my closest friends Megan. She is an absolute diamond and joy to be around, and as this blog is about joys, she certainly deserves a mention.

Megan is currently on a year abroad in France and I MISS HER like mad. She came into my life last year, and i feel like i have known her all my life, despite knowing her for less than a year, she is definately up there with my other closest friends!

Im looking forward to her coming back from her year abroad, so that we can resume our dates in starbucks, and aldi's and her flat, go to bicester village and just have her back in my life.

Megan is like my sister that i never had and i know that i will always know her along Mike, Jane, Abie and my dearly missed Sadaf.

I <3 you Megs :) xxx

"Feelings can be controlled, but tears never lie"

How True is this saying, how many times how we attempted to conceal our feelings, only for our tears to give it all away, i know that i have been there many a time and no doubt will be there again.

Tears, blasted things can never be trusted :)

Today is a very special day for personally, and to honour this very special day and to relive my memories of today, 4 years previous and pay homage to the everlasting friendship that was established (in concrete) on this day im going to treat you with 3 quotes!!!

To the world you may be one person, but to one person you may be the world

And, when you want something, all the universe conspires in helping you to achieve it.” The Alchemist

"Joy is sometimes a blessing, but it is often a conquest. Our magic moment help us to change and sends us off in search of our dreams. Yes we are going to suffer, we will have difficult times, and we will experience many disappointments -but all of this is transitory it leaves no permanent mark. And one day we will look back with pride and faith at the journey we have taken" By The River Piedra I Sat Down And Wept

Keep love in your heart. A life without it is like a sunless garden when the flowers are dead. The consciousness of loving and being loved brings a warmth and richness to life that nothing else can bring

“There is only one thing that makes a dream impossible to achieve: the fear of failure"

Taken from "The Alchemist" by Paulo Coehlo.

Remember that nothing in life is unachievable, if you want something than don't be afraid of in pursuit of it, there's nothing more satisfying and exhilarating then finally acheiveing the one thing you want more than anything.
