Listening to Deborah Conway’s “String of Pearls” CD after ages of having it just sitting on the shelf I had a ball of a time singing loudly away (home alone can be a great thing!). I love her way with words, her voice lets me flow along and release whatever pumping energy within and find this beloved CD timeless.

I was listening to the words I was singing in the title track “String of Pearls” and as much as it is specific to her life as a performing musician I found resonance with the idea of her metaphorical string of pearls - each pearl being the daily acts of love from her mother through out her childhood; “A long time ago when my mother’s hands were all my world, She taught me everything there was to know about holding and being held” and these became her pearls for her necklace.

I think that is wonderful. This is our role with children; to create pearls of love and strength for them to wear through out their life to nuture and strengthen their spirits. Let’s make pearl necklaces for children.

Hey there,

Lately The Secret has been a big influence with me and it has got me thinking about other ways to be part of the positive side of life and then I came across the Oprah “Pay It Forward Challenge” and thought what a great idea. I loved the film about Pay it Forward and have done little bits myself over the years and I love the idea that someone as influential as Oprah has set up a continuing program about bring positive change and being the positive change in the world.

The basic principle behind it all is being kind and generous to others as they need kind and generous support (key point being how they need it, not what you think they need). Click here for some ideas to get you started by the Oprah “pay It Forward Challenge”.

Hey there,

We use them all the time and usually take them for granted but we all have our own favourites like ANZAC Bridge or the Sydney Harbour Bridge.

One of the things that can be most interesting are the stories over the years, mostly about the people connected to the structures or the changes to society they belong to.

I was down at the Opera House playhouse last night and when we came out and saw the Sydney Harbour Bridge I thought how lucky am I to have this as part of my home city. To help celebrate and enjoy our bridges be part of the Dictionary of Sydney project.

Hey there,

To help mark the rite of passage from childhood to adulthood a special celebration is held to mark this transition for both the children and the parents. Of course leading up to the celebration is the real meaning with the learning of Judaism and being part of the community.

Sharing of gifts to mark Bat Mitzvah and Bar Mitzvah is a generous act for family and friends to share in but finding something different that is both beautiful and popular can be challenging but Creatively Belle can help with the answers with our quality jewelry and decorative metal earring stands.

Hey there,

A friend of mine who is building his own photography business introduced me to the Secret - a movie available online and one that is causing quite a stir.

We just watched the trailer to start with and I loved the premise behind it all. I can’t wait until I explore it further.

Here’s the link to the website: http://www.thesecret.tv/ - so go explore it and find out what all the talk is about.

Need some more info, here’s what the site has to say:

“This ground-breaking feature length movie presentation reveals The Great Secret of the universe. It has been passed throughout the ages, traveling through centuries… to reach you.

“This is The Secret to everything - the secret to unlimited joy, health, money, relationships, love, youth: everything you have ever wanted.

“In this astonishing program are ALL the resources you will ever need to understand and live The Secret. For the first time in history, the world’s leading scientists, authors, and philosophers will reveal The Secret that utterly transformed the lives of every person who ever knew it… Plato, Newton, Carnegie, Beethoven, Shakespeare, Einstein.

“Now YOU will know The Secret. And it could change your life forever.”

I love how positive and enpowering The Secret is. So go exploring, remember, nothing ventured, nothing gained. The Secret has been ranked the #1 site of Movers and Shakers on the net!

Hey there,

At our local shopping centre the pet shops have adorable kittens and puppies at amazingly stupidly expensive prices - $500 for a domestic short hair kitten - no desexing, no treatments, no micro-shipping, no backup.

Whereas the local Cat Protection Society and RSPCA have equally adorable kittens, cats, puppies and dogs that are desexed, vacinnated, micro-chipped, wormed, health checked and all the shots and treatments done for less than $200.

Pet shops might be able to get the emotions going when you’re out on regular errands but going to an animal welfare home to get a new animal is so much better and enjoyable.

The range is heaps better and the back up support is excellent as well as being a really responsible way of getting an animal.

Hey there,

This morning I heard an interview with Warren Buffet about his giving away 80% of his wealth - billions of dollars - for the good of others - for the developing world.

What a wonderful thing to do. He’s keeping billions anyway so he and his family will want for nothing while being able to do something truely impressive.

I think it would be an amazing thing to be able to donate significant wealth for the care and betterment of others, to make a real difference in the world. But that is not for the majority of us to do. What we can do is bit by bit with our volunteer work, how we live our daily lives and giving the regular 10% of our incomes to charity.

Buy these lovely pink flower earrings online and I’ll donate 50% of the sale price to the National Breast Cancer Foundation!

Hey there,

What does it mean to you being part of your community?

For me it is fairly simple - it’s about being friendly - smiling and being polite - to those I interact with. It is about having good manners on the road - if someone lets you in you wave thank you - or at any other time really.

It is about accepting help and offering help graciously. It’s about giving to others - like paying extra for The Big Issue to recognise it can be really hard to create positive change and these people are doing it.

It is about being a good neighbour and keeping an eye on things for your neighbours without being a sticky beak (no one likes a sticky beak!).

It is all the little things that make a difference. All the little things that people who think the world owes them just don’t see but that make all the difference.

So if you’re feeling isolated in your community have a think how you can be part of the positive change by doing little things over the next 3 months with an open heart and watch the difference.

Hey there,

Did you know a lot of businesses are doing their bit to help raise research funds to beat Breast Cancer? Big and small businesses have goods and services that have part of their proceeds donated.

For me it is this pair of happy pink earrings. They are $20 and I donate $10 from every sale to the National Breast Cancer Foundation.

I’m no goody tooshoes for doing this, I’m simply doing something that is possible for me and my business.

So be part of the cure for something, even if it isn’t breast cancer, but use your money and your business to help others.

You can buy these earrings online, at market or at a Creatively Belle Jewellery Party and half of their cost goes to the National Breast Cancer Foundation.

Smiles and thanks,

Belinda

Hey there,

Seeing beauty in your daily life is key to living the good life.

When you can’t count your blessings, see something beautiful just in your daily life it can be very difficult to be happy - or to know when you’re happy.

It’s easy to know when you’re unhappy - life is dull and flat, no sparkle. So when you are going through hard times look round and see what’s happening - see how the light comes through the trees, watch a little child be delighted, explore some art, enjoy a loved one’s smile - anything that has beauty in it. It is your choice.

Letting yourself see beauty in your daily life has an accumulative effect - it isn’t a big bang solution, it is a real, everyday life solution. That means it is a step by step process. The results are noticeable over time, not immediately, so look for the differences over a few months.

So figure out what you want - same old, same old or living the good life with seeing beauty in your daily life.
