THE HOLIDAY SPIRIT

As we start to get excited and looking forward to holidays and the company , there are those that

aren't having the best season. They are perhaps alone , not able to celebrate due to lack of money, or

have lost a family member. (thinking about those in London) . But there is always a good story to share about this time of year.

A feel good story is always special at this time of year.

I came across a story about a man in Florida who decided to help 36 families whose heating bills were overdue and about to be turned off. To imagine someone not having heat to keep warm in winter

is really unbelievable. For some it is a problem whether to buy food for their families or keep utilities . Well this man paid their heating bill , what a great goodwill thing to do.

So when we have a chance to help others it can be small or big, it can make a difference to a person or family. Whether it is a box of cookies, a drive to the stores, shovelling the walk or just visited someone who is sick or alone, it can mean so much.

I am not talking celebrities like Rihanna or Kardashians or any of the other major celebrities . I am not a big follower of instagram, but for those that are there are a few surprises such as one very popular Instagram Star is actually a virtual reality image, not a REAL person. These computer generated images look so real that people are actually thinking it is a real person. Something strange about that , if someone is able to fool people in such a way Firstly it is not stated this is not a real person This to me is funny. with all the talk about fake news etc. So why is it allowed to have computer generated images allowed to be part of? Okay maybe its like following a cartoon hero, i.e. SUPERMAN or WONDERWOMAN - but this we know are only characters not REAL PEOPLE. These so called stars gorgeous , flawless and h

CAMOUFLAGE STYLES// Fashion, designer

SOMETHING DIFFERENT I have to say I love color and prints, and when I saw the work of this Kenyan photographer Thandiwe Murui , I was in AWE. Such vibrant prints that make a statement . The prints or the checkerboard are definitely eye- catching.
