Monday

It is that day again! Monday! The weekend is over and Monday is here for everybody to adjust again to the long week ahead. Its not that bad, except  in Honiara we all just need some inspiration and of course something funny to get us going. Today morning was raining and unusually gloomy in Honiara. The first thing on my mind is how am I going to get to the bus stop without an umbrella then I saw an elderly walking passed soaking wet and that don’t help either. So after some hot sweet tea, bread and butter ( classic Honiara breakfast!) I followed the morning crowd to catch the public bus half wet, although there are attempts by others to shield of the drizzling rain with banana leaf ( you dont see that often anywhere in the world) and some piece of cardboard sheet, most went to work and school half wet ( half dry?) today.  Therefore to lift some spirits today I went searching like mad for inspirations on the internet. While the internet is not the answer for everything in life it is the fastest way to get it, like panadol ya. I got some high listening to a local reggae band on the way to work in the bus though, its the first time  I heard them, I think its One House ( I promise to find out more about them and provide link) if anybody know about them can you just email me so that I can contact them. You know Support Local Music! 

Anyways  one of the way l look for Inspirations and  other things to make the week more interesting is that  I look for small snippets, pictures or music to pull me up and face another week this is done through thehe internet of course but there are other ways to do it as well as mentioned, so here goes: ( note: most blogs featured  overseas oriented  things but some of them touch universal things…human things)

If you are currently reading this blog with some time on your hands and want to find inspirational quotations here is one of my favorite found on Positivity blog:

“My aim is to put down on paper what I see and what I feel in the best and simplest way.”
Ernest Hemingway

The above quote kept me writing and blogging. Great quote from a great novelist.

What about this-

Everything that irritates us about others can lead us to an understanding of ourselves.
Carl Jung

Nice huh? But nothing beats good old Honiara side road comments for funny. Like today this guy was wet and ran toward the bus stop with everybody huddled together already wet and crowded, he ran in stood and smiled and in typical Honiara way said …at least the rain is no excuse for morning face wash…hehehe..ok I dont think this joke went down well with the English language but you true Honiara ones out there will know what I mean. So check out the above blog for more inspiring qoute. Hope that blog dont mind me mentioning it like this. So get cracking …hey put on some Bob Marley… Don’t worry about a thing..every little thing is gonna be alright..yep Three Little Birds… Light Up the Darkness…

oh! I just cant sign off before giving you this other interesting link…check out Juan Francisco Casas.. this talented guy drew all his work on Blue Biro man ae…creativity and positivity…hehe

See u all later …
