    Is it better to aim for the stars and hit a tree or aim for a tree and land in its branches :think:

    It's easy to give in to that negative voice that chants "cant do it" BUT we lift each other up.
    We dont count all the runners ahead of us & feel intimidated.
    Instead we look back proudly at our journey, our personal struggle & determination & remember that there are those that never even attempt to reach the starting line.

    Oh I had a funny experience yesterday, was wandering round the shops just looking at anything and everything, and I started looking at some cutlery in John Lewis. Was busy fondling some very nice (rather pricey) spoons when the sales assistant came up and asked me if I wanted some help - I said I was just having a look but somehow ended up in an indepth conversation about said rather pricey range of cutlery and how good it was, how well balanced and well made the pieces were and how he would definitely recommend them if I was looking to buy a set of cutlery that would last for many years. I'm quite impressed that I might look like someone who was in the market for a £370 cutlery set!http://www.johnlewis.com/230443451/Product.aspx .. must admit though they are gorgeous, and did feel very nice to hold.. is it wrong to be in love with some cutlery..? I wonder if I bought one thing a month how long it would take to get a whole set... :rotfl:
