Will you?

I went for a jog yesterday morning without headphones. I thought I'd try it for a change and it was better than I thought it would be. I think you take in more of your surroundings....I guess you would... I must have eaten well the night before because I managed to keep going without having to persuade myself not to stop; less than last time anyway. It seems to work well for me running once a month. It's enough to rip muscles that I'm not used to using and it also gets my heart racing which is good for me.

Two families from our church invited a load of us round for a bar-b in the afternoon (about 40 of us). The main feed was at one house. They had a big garden and it was a beautiful day. A lot of time I'm not mad on social situations but for some reason I enjoyed it there. Then we walked to the next house for pudding (that's...sweet food in England). We played volleyball in the garden there. Maybe that's why I enjoyed the day so much. I love volleyball and it was great to have the kids playing too.

Saw this on Twitter. Really liked it. It came with this quote from Khalil Gibran:




In the depth of my soul there is
A wordless song—a song that lives
In the seed of my heart.

And this, I just heard on the radio: I got completely lost in this:

That's such a lovely photo, and the poem underneath as well. Thank you for sharing that song, I hadn't heard it before and it really pulls you in. I haven't played volleyball in a very long time. I'd always ended up with horribly sore forearms for days after. Good times. lol : )

Ah, Hazel O'Connor is brilliant.
She made this classic punk film called Breaking Glass.
I reckon you'd love it, if you get the chance to see it.

That image is just gorgeous. I love the colours.

I always get annoyed when I forget my earphones when I go on walks. I just love my music with me. Although I do know what you mean - it's nice to hear the birds in the bush and the sound of the waves.
