I read this morning that 20th June, or "Yellow Day", has been declared as the most cheerful date in the calendar. Apparently, it's when the feeling of optimism is at its peak, caused by the combination of lighter evenings, the prospect of holidays and memories of childhood summers...

💛 So happy Yellow Day everyone! 💛

(And if you aren't feeling very cheerful today, remember that brighter days are still to come! 😘 x)

🌟😁🤸‍♀️

Shiny happy people!

Today is National Random Acts of Kindness Day!

So, why not brighten someone's day with a smile, give a compliment, open a door or buy a coffee?

You might even choose a little gift for someone who would really appreciate a kind gesture right now.

It's often the little things that make a big difference!

Happy LOVE day people!

And remember, you can buy yourself flowers...or nice shiny things!

"Sometimes the hero stumbles
and falls right off of the page,
sometimes the princess rolls her eyes
and says "I don't want to be saved."

Sometimes the dragon needs rescuing
and the villain aches to be helped,
sometimes, in the darkness,
the lost boy finds himself.

Sometimes the prince is cunning,
and not at all what he seemed,
sometimes the witch's kindness
shows it's she who deserves to be queen.

Sometimes we shouldn't define people
by someone else's point of view -
just because it's what we've been told,
doesn't make it true."

✒️ Sometimes The Wolf Cries Girl

Did gyre and gimble in the wabe:
All mimsy were the borogoves,
And the mome raths outgrabe..."
