Instead of reacting, soften. Instead of fixing, listen. The next time something triggers you, use it as a teacher. Your stillness has wisdom your panic will never find.

On the 80th anniversary of VJ Day, 99-year-old veteran Duncan Hilling was honoured with a letter of thanks from the First Minister of Wales. 👏

Mr Hilling, who served in India, Japan and Malaya, was among the first UK troops to enter Hiroshima and Nagasaki after the atomic bombs. Reflecting on what he saw, he said:

"We asked people what they remembered about the bomb… they couldn’t remember anything, just a flash. To me it was horrible… let’s hope to goodness it never happens again."

Today we remember his service, and the sacrifices of all who fought in the Pacific. ❤️

”Wednesday afternoon I was driving west on I-40 when my blood sugar dropped to a dangerous level. Luckily a Burger King restaurant was at the upcoming exit. As I stumbled through placing my order I mentioned to the voice on the speaker that I was diabetic and in need of food. Low blood sugar makes it difficult to think or act. I pulled up to the first window in order to pay for my food. I was shocked to see Burger King employee Tina Hardy running toward the front of my car. She squeezed between the front of my car and the building just to bring me a small serving of ice cream. Tina later explained that her husband was also diabetic and she could tell that I needed help. After paying I pulled up to Tina’s window where she gave me my food. She instructed me to park across the driveway so that she could keep an eye on me until I felt better. After eating I waited for a break in business so that I could return to Tina’s window. I then took this picture and spoke with Tina’s supervisor, telling him what she did for me. If you appreciate what this special woman did please share this story. Hopefully Tina Hardy will receive the recognition that she truly deserves from the public and from the big bosses at Burger King.”

Only found out about this abstract art form a few days ago. It's called neurographica. I was watching a video on YouTube and it all fell into place, like a light bulb 💡 moment.

This all started from one scribble in a circle from something I was feeling frustrated about lol.

You can see from the images below how this has spread out on the canvas. So far this has taken 4 days in total to do. I'm already feeling a bit different as well 😁
