“And I’ll see your true colors
Shining through
I see your true colors
And that’s why I love you
So don’t be afraid to let it show
Your true colors
True colors are beautiful
Like a rainbow”
True Colors – Cyndi Lauper

One Summer there were ladybugs everywhere, the next year there were wasps everywhere and this year there are hairy caterpillars all over the place. Is it random or does it mean anything? How does the Universe decide?

Is a caterpillar a sign of change and transformation into a beautiful butterfly? Truth be told, you can choose to see signs and give them any meaning you want. I choose all things positive because the reflection I see in everything is really a reflection of what is in me.

Is it just me or does the sky seem to be a bluer shade of blue when it is sunny outside these days? I notice the leaves on the trees and it makes me wonder, how many shades of green can there be?

Was it always this way? As we were driving down the countryside today, the grass was this vibrant shade of green and the wild flowers along the side of the road looked so much brighter than usual. Even the books on my shelf seemed to pop out with all these rainbow of colours.

Was I sleepwalking through life all this time? Am I just waking up really noticing the beauty in everything around me? Walking barefoot on the grass, feeling grounded and at peace are some of the simple pleasures for me these days.

I feel lucky with all that I have and had in my life and, anything more I get is just extra icing on the cake. Although I am not really a fan of icing but you know what I mean.

After these last few years of searching and learning and growing, I know what I need to do next is share what I have learnt and help others find what they are really looking for in life. Spoiler alert, you already have all that you need and all you need to do is set an intention and let it unfold.

“Everything has beauty, but not everyone sees it.” – Confucius
“The best way to pay for a lovely moment is to enjoy it.” – Richard Bach
“I don’t think of all the misery but of the beauty that still remains.” – Anne Frank
“Those who were seen dancing were thought to be insane by those who could not hear the music.” – Friedrich Nietzsche
“To be beautiful means to be yourself. You don’t need to be accepted by others. You need to accept yourself.” – Thich Nhat Hanh
