Advice to my un-created son

For just in case I am ever blessed with a little Prince, I have started a list. I wont teach him about the 'birds and the bees', how to shave or even to ride a bike.. that's what Dad will be for.

But below is just a little of what I hope to teach my son one day..

- Don't trust anyone who cant be kind to small children or animals.

- If you ask a girl out, always pay.

-If it is right, it happens—The main thing is not to hurry. Nothing good gets away.

-If a street performer makes you stop walking, you owe him a buck.

-Never cancel dinner plans by text message. Especially with your Mama!

-More times than not, you will be judged by your shoes.

-There is just no good reason to look into a woman's handbag.

-The best way to ruin an apology is with an explanation.

-Women are crazy, irrational, needy and amazingly wonderful creatures.

-Don't ever get drunker than your boss

-Return a borrowed car with a full tank.

-Life shrinks or expands in proportion to one’s courage.

-On occasion, unplug.

-If you are lucky enough to be invited into a woman's life.. this is a privialge, not a right and you will be there only as long as you deserve to be. Always woo. Always respect. Always cherish.

-Dont ever let your woman/mother mow the lawn.

-If you cant see your shirt cuff, your jacket doesn't fit.

- Never shake someone's hand sitting down. Your grandad always told me this, and since he is wise, you should listen.

-Walk tall, kick ass, learn to speak arabic, love music, and never forget you come from a long line of truth seekers, lovers, and warriors.Hunter S. Thompson

-And like I told your sister, Be generous. with your time, your money, your heart. If there was a single lesson I could hope on my best day to impart to you, this would be it.

Love is a choice. It's something that you wake up every morning and choose. There is not clear, direct path in life, sometimes you have to reside yourself to the fact that there are periods where no clear answers can be found. one.step.in.front.of.the.other. Its not always easy, its not always clear- but its always good. And, if you choose, love can last forever.

3 weeks from my 22nd birthday, all my dreams have come true. xx

JDW, I choose to love you forever

Ive been staring at the sky tonight
Marveling and passing time
Wondering what to do with daylight
Until I can make you mine
You are the one I want, you are the one I want

In due season

"I will give you rain at the right time. The land will produce its crops, and the trees in the field will produce their fruit. Lev 26:4

His plan is good. His timing is perfect. His love is pure.

To find you and love you for all that you are. That's the reason I was sent to Earth...

What a blissful weekend spent in Mackay. Almost 48hours spent with this man went quicker than I could have imagined.

• airport. hospital visit. hotel.
• italian food. walks by the water. New Years Eve.
• breakfast. rainforest clad mountain. driving. talking. kissing.
• New Years Eve. noodle box. proud gf. midnight kiss.
• caramel latte. church. lunch with friends.
• love. promises. chemistry. trust. peace. friendship. dreams come true. our future.

In life, we do things. Some, we wish we had never done and some we wish we could replay a million times. They make us who we are and, in the end, they shape and detail us. If we were to reserve them, we wouldn’t be the person we are today. So, just live. Make mistakes and have wonderful memories. But, never second guess who you are, where you’ve been and, most importantly, where you’re going. Because all that ive done and seen have somehow shaped me into the person that is loved by this man.

It's really quite simple- find what it is that makes you happy and who it is that makes you happy... and you're set. Promise.
