Note to self

Be happy
Like a kid with a football, don't let that smile fall down.

Be healthy
Don't eat carbs, or red meat, or sugar or (what's that new one? oh yes) gluten.

Be present
Don't let your mind wander to the past or future, even if that feels like keeping water in a sieve.

Be grateful
For everything, good and bad. Especially the bad, in fact – apparently it's good for you.

Be skinny
.... or curvy? I can't remember which one it is.

Be hard-working
Like a siamese twin, that blackberry goes everywhere with you.

Be strong
No-one likes a cry-baby. Put a brave face on, take it on the chin, keep a stiff upper lip.

Be charitable
Giving is better than receiving. Repeat, giving is better than receiving.

Be yourself
Well, yourself..... but just a little bit better.
