All is well

It’s been a few weeks since “soap opera” and I’ve had some really sweet emails from friends being supportive and talking about being brave and courage etc. and it got me thinking. People go through bad patches all the time, it’s the nature of being human. I think everyone is brave and courageous at heart. You have to be, and it’s not relative. Terrible things can happen to someone which aren’t as terrible as those that happen to someone else, but when the worst thing happens to you, it’s still the worst thing that ever happened to you in your life and it’s how you deal with it that counts.

Saw a very good film called Jarhead last night about a rookie in the first Gulf war. A friend of mine who was in the army thinks it’s the most accurate film about war/the Gulf. It was very good, but only served to re-inforce my opinion that peace can’t be created by soldiers.

The last couple of weeks have been really good. Nothing in particular going on. Spending a lot of time hanging out with friends, drinking, some cool dives with unusual fish and one excellent dive with grey reef sharks swimming straight at me! ; ) Also snorkeling with 5 whalesharks all around me (approx. 8 – 12m long each) feeding at a massive bait ball of small fish with tuna, trevally and needlefish shooting in and out! Awesome ; ) Personally, I’ve felt a lot happier and relaxed, laughing more and feeling a lot more how I used to do. The normal me.

But news wise that’s about it. Really not so interesting at the moment!

Hope your lives are all wicked.
