Sunday morning - my favourite time of day

- Discovering new places for brunch Birdman Eating in Fitzroy has to be the best breakfast place not tried yet for 2009. Can't wait to try the baked eggs next time around. Good conversation and laughs with a lovely friend don't hurt either.

- Phone catch ups with an original Cambridge girl

- Fresh dinners cooked by Mum

- Impossibly sunny Sunday afternoons

- Knowing, KNOWING, that everything is going to be okay.

Words of wisdom

"Life will break you.Nobody can protect you from that, and living alone won’t either. For solitude will also break you with its yearning. You have to love.You have to feel. It is the reason you are here on earth. You are here to risk your heart. You are here to be swallowed up. And when it happens that you are broken, or betrayed, or left, or hurt, or death brushes near, let yourself sit by an apple tree and listen to the apples falling all around you in heaps, wasting their sweetness. Tell yourself you tasted as many as you could."
