So what if people look through my eyes and ask what's wrong? It's a a lot better than putting on an Austin Powers parade all through the bank.

Think about it


I'll keep visiting my mum. Hippies visited their parents in the 60s. If they can, I can.

I'm not going to church today. I'm going to boop around town like I usually do on Sundays. Perhaps Barb and I can go to the Cloverdale flea market to see what funny things we can find.

I wish I didn't have that soldier walk. I know it drives her up the wall when she sees me walking.

That's a minor thing. I know that I can do small talk with her.

Be yourself - be honest. Tell your heart to them!

Sounds like a nice idea :)

Forgive her. She's only human after all

It's hard to walk normal carrying 100 or so extra lbs.

Sid from Flushed Away came back to me in the form of a human. I'm dealing with it in a healthy way. Fruits, grains, veggies, meat and dairy.

My mum says that it doesn't matter that I like the masculine and her the feminine, but her actions tell me different. We'll keep working it out. I guess that my mum knows that I can't be the "daughter" that she wants me to be. I want to work it out.

Cockney, we all have our faults. None of us are perfect. It's just a matter of being able to look beyond those imperfections and "seeing" the true person behind those imperfections. Forgiving one another for those imperfections and loving the person behind them.

Sometimes, we've just got to grow up. Stop blaming each other for our own imperfections and theirs and just grasp the meaning behind it all. To see that we all have flaws and imperfections - and to forgive and tolerate each others ways - no one understands this. No one knows why we are here but all we can be certain of is that all we have is each other.

Don't throw away the ones who really love you. Because, there is no one else.

None of us know where we are going. We're all just as clueless as each other. Life is a dark road. It's scary. The best we can do is be kind and forgiving of one another.

I'm spent!

The few simple words that would help anyone in distress. I accept you as you are. I know my mum will come around.

I know my mum's crying in her sleep. I hear it in the way that she's breathing in and out.

I can't just be a hippie just because most people my age are able to do so. I think my mum's grieving and it hurts me, because I'm the cause. I was in for a spin because my mum doesn't like me relating to overweight characters. She was the same way when the movie Flushed Away came out.
