Things I Love Thursday

Things I Love Thursday

Dr Seuss audiobooks!
The best thing ever for bedtime! Ted Danson reading The Lorax? Dustin Hoffman reading Horton Hears A Who? John Cleese reading Did I Ever Tell You How Lucky You Are? Perfection!

Tim Walker photoshoots!
One of my new obsessions, I had never seen any of his work before! He likes to take pictures of futuristic girls in turbans, Indian influences, colourful balloons, disco balls & all manner of gleeful delights.

Mysterious postcards!
Especially those with strange postmarks & no name on the bottom!

Dada!
“Liberty: DADA DADA DADA; – the roar of contorted pains, the interweaving of contraries & all contradictions, freaks and irrelevancies: LIFE.” (Educate yourselves!)

Also…
Faux-royalty; red toadstools with white spots; brilliant minds which focus on details; sparkly baubles to put on my turban!; innovative fashion shows; dramatic photographs; aristocrat style; silver service; boys in shirts which match their eyes; dada; ridiculous hair accessories (like a small bird, for example); talent, hope & tenacity.

Okay, I showed you mine, now you show me yours! Tell me what you love this week!

Q: Why do we do this every week?
A: From last week’s cupcake: People who tend to experience gratitude more frequently than others also tend to be happier, more helpful and forgiving, and less depressed than their less grateful counterparts (McCullough, Emmons, & Tsang, 2002; Watkins, Woodward, Stone, & Kolts, 2003).

So don’t be afraid to get involved, even if the things you’re happy about are really little!

P.S. The blackcigarette community is doing this too! Hooray!
