Friday Inspiration : Make Your Life One Not To Escape From!

Darlins! It is day 2 of my vacation.  Taken a bit of a break from the big city and just truly enjoying the healing power of the mighty, glorious ocean.  But having said that, I realise that maybe it is worth considering creating a life one does not need to escape from constantly.  Some food for thought..............Hugz

Food Is Love - CrazeeBee 5 Top Spots

View From My Last Visit At The Wescliffe

Honeyz!  Hope all is well with you.  JHB just wrapped up another successful Pride Event.  It was a party indeed and full of happy people.  I am trying hard to focus at work.  My holiday is kicking off later this week and I am just counting the hours till I get to chill at the Ocean!  Yay!  Anyhoo, let's get on with understanding why JHB (Johannesburg) is the place to be in South Africa.  Food!  There is so much Good Food to choose from and I simply love my Food.  So here are CrazeeBee's Top 5 Food Spots in JHB :

• Five - Tashas - JHB is not the fully experienced if you have not had a Tashas breakfast.  I love my weekend visit to Tashas for the best breakfast this town has to offer.  I love the surroundings.  Fresh is word that best describes it!
• Four - The Westcliff - Awesome lunch place.  The chef surprises with what they come up with and all the food is simply out of this world yum.  But the winner is the best view of JHB!  You get to take in just how pretty JHB is!
• Three - Luca's Pizerria - I do enjoy their pastas but the winner is their house salad with that out of this world salad dressing.  Yum to the Yum!
• Two - The Raj - I am so in love with their Lamb Rogan Josh but from what I can see and hear, all their dishes are awesome!
• One - Midori Sushi - Their Sushi Rocks the taste buds!  Nothing beats a beautiful day of having my favourite Sushi, some Duck Wrapps and the most delectable Red Velvet Cake!  Yes they have the best red velvet cake I have had! And that is the clear winner.  Heaven!

Hugz and write to you soon from the coast!  Yay!

Dress Up In Love! Take on the city

I love the sentiment of this song.  It speaks about dusting off that old yet delicious outfit called love and slipping back into something that will always fit.  Love looks good on all of us.  So this week celebrate that when you step out to face the world, you can always slip into your best looking outfit called love.  Be dazzling this week my darlins! I look forward to telling you all about JHB through CrazeeBee eyes!  Mwah!

CrazeeBee Wrap Up

We now enter the  month of October and judging by my latest review of my calendar, it is going to be one busy and exciting month ahead.  It has inspired my new theme to explore called "Blessed And The City" (BATC).  watch this space for posts as I write about the fun to be had in JHB.  I feel a sense of renewed life and excitement to be lived and experienced in this Jewel In Africa.  It is like my drought of rut is over and it is all exciting times ahead. But back to this past week.  

As a note, I would love to know how you doing and how your week as gone.  Please comment back by copying the themes below and letting us know how you doing.  Would love to know!

Some thoughts from me :

• Highs - I am having more and more fun when I see how a new perspective or story changes how you deal with the world and situations.  I see it in my experiences at work, how I deal with my inner nightmares and more importantly, my openness to the new coming into my life.  It just strengthens how all our happiness and joy is tied up into how we see the world and what we believe in.  It is a yummy place to be!
• Lows - I have been going on about this trust thing but I now I see some people in my life in a new light.  I see the truth in their trustworthiness and that is interesting as now I know a truth that enables me to deal with them in a healthier manner.  The same applies to me.  I now see where I have work to be more trustworthy to me!
• Most proud of getting through a week with high levels of creativity!  It has been awesome to see what is manifesting in my space
• Most grateful for my family!  Been planning a get together with them the past week. Going to be awesome to spend some time with them just being!
• You must try using a heart rate monitor system in your workouts.  How your body reacts and deals with exercise is a fascinating learning curve
• Been loving Glee new season and Grey's Anatomy new season has got my interest

Greatest Learnings - 5 Things

How funny is life!  Here I was going on about being wide awake and then I got smacked with some very interesting information revolving the "trust factor".  I will definitely write something about this later in the week.  But let me ponder on that for a little bit more.  So on this whole thing of learning best in the face of adversity and pain, some of my biggest lessons from some events. 

Would love to hear from you, so if you keen, copy and paste the list below into the comments section and let me know your greatest learnings :)

1. The Big Heartbreak from the "at the time love of my life" : That my happiness is truly my business and my responsibility.  The greater my life is, the quicker I could see the beauty in life and move forward without them around
2. The Big Work disappointment : This always gives me the opportunity to re-evaluate my life priorities and balance that this is all about me being my best and living my best life and work is but an aspect of that bigger picture
3. The Big Betrayal from someone very close to me : This has been a recent discovery that has opened such a new perspective.  This really  makes me see how I  go about trusting myself and others and that the more surprised I am of the betrayal, the more I have been in denial or given that person a responsibility that is mine ultimately
4. The Big Loss of something precious and dear to me : This makes me realise and validate my "I Deserve" factor.  It also makes me see how open I am to receiving new and better things and experiences in my life.  Very insightful experience
5. The Big Expectation to live up to : When you come back to  middle, it really is a need to get approval that drives this.  And the question will always be whether or  not you are ok with where you are and not subsituting this for someone else's viewpoint

Wide Awake

Happy Rocktober Honeyz!  Hopefully we can all rock this month.  In the final series of "You can find love", I am ending this with the theme of you learn the best and can take it all in with your face on the concrete.  We all get our bubble's burst or fall from that comfort zone.  But for most, it is when we most awake and can take note and see the truth we avoid in other circumstances.  We can consolidate what we know and sharpen perspective.  So here is to embracing the wisdom and learning that is available to us when we fall from cloud nine.  This song best describes that feeling.  Enjoy!
