#LoveLoveLoveLiveLove  

Drogie piękne 42-dniowe dziecko w ramionach Twojej pięknej matki, /Dear little baby in your beautiful mammy's arms, 

Masz sześć tygodni! (42 dni!) Tá tú sé seachtaine d'aois! (42 lá!)

You are six weeks old!  (42 days!)

* Maidin mhaith as Gaillimh * Good morning from Galway * Pozdrowienia od sąsiada z Galway *

Some people in this crazy way of things right now say in the beautiful English language, "grand risings", instead of "good morning".

Each to their beautiful own. Own.It.

But, everybody who knows me better than superficially knows that I don't give a (beautiful) tinker's curse, nor a (gorgeous) fiddler's fart, about the Jonesiz.
(Except for caring about their well-being and wellness).

BUT there IS ONE PERSON who's opinion DOES MATTER TO ME.

And that is my good friend Niall Guy, formerly of the beautiful, historic, important, gigantic James Connolly Tower, Ballymun, where I lived blissfully with him that year.

If *I* were to say "Grand Risings" to you or to anyone, I would have Niall's beautiful face and voice in my head saying:

"Ya fukin' SAP Briadge!"

But I digress.

Do you love music? Singing? Swaying to music? Lilting along? Humming? Whistling along?
Do you *love* languages? Mother tongues? Father tongues? OtherLanguages? Romance languages? Slavic languages? Ancient beautiful Celtic languages? Groovy languages with clicks and all groovy types of things? The beautiful clever English language? 

(I *know* you're a bit young and wee for all of that Lovely Diana, but in a previous life maybe???)

Do you like to be silly? And childlike? And singing out of tune as in Ger Wolfe's beautiful song "I watched the sun"?

Do you like to laugh? And copy accents? And daydream? And talk to your imaginary friends?

Well! Have a listen to this 23-minute excerpt from my radio show "Rogha Bhríde" - Bríd & Brigit's choice - Music to Nourish & Heal, from Flirt FM 101.3, Galway.

Start your day with a few lovely things around you.
Have your breakfast coffee in your favourite cup. (Tell your ma and da!)
With your favourite colours around you.

Just tell yer ma to find 3 things that you love to look at, and place them on her table or breakfast counter so you can see them while having yourself 20 minutes of peace and tranquility this new day in your bouncy-bed-thingy.




Right Little  Lady, I know *you* have funk all else to do today but lie there like a beautiful lazy layabout, being boob fed by that gorgeous mammy of yours & cooned at by that "tall and kind" daddy of yours, but

The woods are lovely, dark and deep,   

But I have promises to keep,  (myself) 

And miles to go before I sleep,   

And miles to go before I sleep.

and my wee beautiful gentle reminder to go get meself a 'nother cuppa coffee has just sounded.
That be, my beautiful "hillside" wooden-sounding thing that goes off on my mobile phone, which sounds like that gorgeous wee wooden box on a drum kit in a Céilí Band, like the Shannon Vale Céilí Band, innit pet?

PS What did you say kochane piękne dziecko. WHERE'S THE Essential Rogha Bhríde Radio Show playlist for today?
Coming up right after my second cuppa coffee love!

⭐ When a Star is Born 0004 🌠 aka Droga Diana (Three Weeks Old)

#Procrastination #SelfSabotage #MovingOn #HeyDreamer #JohnSpillane #CarnivorousMe Drogi piękny noworodku w ramionach mamusi/Dear little newborn baby in your beautiful mammy's arms, masz trzy tygodnie! (Dwadzieścia jeden dni!) You are three weeks old! (21 days!) I miss you! I'm often away from home, and I never miss it. I always love coming home, but I don't miss being away. But I miss you! Yesterday at a special market in a garden centre, I saw some little towels with some cute little designs, and I thought of you. I'm working on improving my life by following John Spillane's two songs, "Hey Dreamer" and "I'm Moving On". Taking a leaf out of my son's book that he's reading "Atomic Habits", and my own book which I was inspired to read by that beautiful Amanda and her gorgeous husband Scott, Jordan Peterson's "12 Rules of Life". Last evening a few hours before going to bed, I watched Amanda's most recent video. It was just what I wanted. And I set my alarm clock for 6am {piece of cake these dayz as I'm going to bed with sunset and rising at sunrise}, and I wrote in my "WantToDoList" that I would "work from 7am until 11am". I've just realised, and it's not the first time, that putting pressure on myself to "work" isn't conducive to my go-with-the-flow nature. Pushing too hard for something just pushes it away, as in the gorgeous song by Fia, "The Art of Letting Go". She sings "the more I struggle and fight, trying to get it all right, I push away the very thing I want/Thinking it's all up to me, deciding how it will be, forgetting that I'm guided by the one/So I forgive myself over again, because I'm doing the best that I can, and there are no mistakes, I learn everyday, and the Universe is showing me the way". What I saw first hand before, is that everything I do to improve my life and wellbeing is "work", and I just want to remember it everyday. And to remember that by starting my day off with doing some of the more fun work things, then I fire myself up for a few hours of concentrated and focussed "dollar work", which gives me more wings to do more of the non-dollar things. 💸💸💸 So here I am dear Diana, practising what I teach. Start your day with creative, fun work, and know that you will be focussed and clear to do 4 or 5 hours of dollar work in the afternooon or evening, depending on the position of the sun, the amount of clouds, the vicinity of friends I haven't seen in a long time, etc. etc. (I *know* you're a bit young to be earning dollars babe, but tell your ma and da...!) And now I'll leave you to sleep beautiful little blondie, with some gorgeous songs to soothe you, and Amanda's beautiful YouTube video from the other day.
