Some thoughts and views about life and also books and art and anything else that I find interesting. Happy reading and let me know what you think. I want to use this blog for positive views. There are plenty of Blogs like that I am not one of them.
A person’s thoughts influence their actions and their behaviour. If we do something that makes us feel good, for example, doing some exercise at the gym, although hard work makes us feel good. Therefore, our behaviour changes and we want to do more of it because it feels good. The difference comes when the person has negative thoughts all the time. Whatever they try and whatever they do their thoughts are negative. Even though it might be an enjoyable experience there is still negative thoughts that come into the person’s head. For example, you are going to a friend’s birthday party. For many of us when we have been invited to a party, we are excited. We think about the party and who we might see and the friends that we are going to see. Our thoughts are both excited and happy for the event. We may leave early to get to the party, we ring our friends and are excited to see them. Now imagine a person with continuous negative automatic thoughts. They ...
In the 1950’s a new illness was diagnosed called Compassion Fatigue the condition may symptom was characterized by a gradual lessening of compassion. It is a serious problem and people show symptoms of depression. We can have the same with ourselves when it comes to giving in charity.

The Other day I had an Conversation with someone about Fashion. I am not sure if many of you know but I used to work in Top shop in Oxford Circus. So I thought I woulds share with you some of the trend that might look good for the Summer of 2012. First of all I am really pleased to say that there seems to be a little colour back into the high street this season. This must be because of the bad weather that people want to wear bold and primary colours. Although I am not sure about the hat in the lower picture. Am I old fashioned enough to say that hats and woolen hats should be winter wear and not summer wear. Fresh and clean colours are in this year. Good but loose the hat.

But there are some fashions that are clearly wrong and should be left alone. See the Green Jumper down below. I don't really know where to ...
