Gentle.



Quality time, with some quality people always makes a good end to a perfect summers day.
Yesterday was one of the most beautiful days of the year.
Not too hot, not too warm.
& considering it was Sunday, make it even better!

In the morning, we arrived in the Kapiti Coast early.
Left early with Dave Morris & Cam Warn.
I knew as soon as i got in the car, i would not be listening to John Meyer, or classical music.
I admitted the other day, that i might, potentially, maybe, be warming up to- i don't even know what it's called.. screaming music?
- it's defiantly not what i would usually listen to.. & i'm still not 100% convinced i like it..
but.
i dunno. lol.
there is something about it, that's so undignified.
there is different layers to each song.
& even though i can't hear much of a melody, there is something captivating about it..
we'll see..


Dynamite was seriously crazy.
After 4 weeks of spending most days with them,
-finally Tracey & Nicole recognise me at Church.
that made me feel special.


After Church, the classic Mollie, Ange & Bek jumped in the car & headed off to Waitangi Park.
Threw a banana at Tim Ng's car.
De-toured to the supermarket.
& lay of the grass.
the sky was a wonderful mixture of light & dark blue, mixed with lavender & peach all blending into one another.
imagine if sunsets had scents along with it's colours.


Bek once again confronted me of my spelling.

"by the way man, it's 'golden', not 'goldern'- there is no R."

now this is engraved in my memory i am improving.
spelling 'potenially' (potentially-thanks spell check) is still my weakness.
-it looks the same to me, so i don't see what the big problem is.
i remember when i was little- at Kiburnie children's pool area.
my dad taught me how to spell 'because'.. the longest word i knew.
now every time i spell 'because'- i sing the song that he sang for me to remember.

Same with the word 'purple'.
at my Mum's old work, Kelburn Medical Centre.
So now every time i drive through Kelburn, i get the word purple stuck in my head.

I enjoy how different places spark different memories.




Today, I thought was once another sunny day.
then i opened my blinds..
& to my surprise, it was overcast?
then i fell back to sleep, & woke up to a clear blue sky.



it keeps reminding me about going for swims in the warm sea water.
usually i really don't like going swimming.
i love water more than anything.
it's personal to me though.
but this summer, i want to explore different beaches, & gentle lakes.
spontaneous road trip to lake Taupo?
i think so.

relaxing-has been the key word for today..
stayed in my room the whole day, & only appearing to make an omelet, & get some canned beetroot along with golden kiwifruit.

this week, i've just wanting to listen to the Pocahontas soundtrack.
-stumbled upon the full movie of "Beauty & the Beast" movie on You Tube today.
My favourite Disney Movie.
I like the fact, she had no idea who he was. She was forced to live in his household. he was consumed by pride, & anger which didn't make him a pleasure to be around.
but by her femininity & patience, she softened his heart.



"a gentle answer turns away wrath, but a harsh word stirs up anger."

-Proberbs 15:1


"through patience a ruler can be persauded, & a gentle tounge can break a bone."

-Proverbs 25:14
