Happy stories


Happy stories 


For many of us what is happening in the world right now is still beyond our depth, we all are in a situation we never thought or feared of (at least I never thought and feared of something like this can happen)


We might have seen something similar in the cinema but that time we thought ok, the filmmaker had been either weird or way too imaginative but when leaving the cinema we could happily acknowledge that everything was fine. 
This time we cannot switch off the movie, it is happening and happening very fast and uncontrollable.


The news are sometimes confusing and contradictory but one thing is for sure social distancing can save many lives and we have to do it for our own and each other’s sake.


In my opinion it is really good to be on our own, with our thoughts if this is our own choice but if someone would like to talk and share thoughts or just to have some relaxing moments, which in these tough days can be really relieving and encouraging but if there is nobody to talk or contact to, it can be too bad, sad or even depressing.

This is true not only for those who live alone but for anyone who lives in a family or in a community and based on personal experience sometimes it is great to talk to someone whom we just met but there is real bond from the very first moment.

I had this experience while walking the El Camino in Spain and so grateful for it. El Camino was one of the best experience and time of my life. Great walk, wonderful feelings and lovely people.

I believe everybody has a nice story, great memories and well rememberred experiences. 


It would be great to read some because in a time such this we need to maintain our mental health, we now need optimism more than ever and some relaxing time.

If you have one or more stories (the more the better) please share with me/us. It would be greatly appreciated.


Take care of yourself and one another

    When the worst happens it is hard to see beyond the difficulties. But life goes on and we do all win through in the end.

    In 2017 we had a really bad fire sweep through our area. We got out and were safe but the world around us that we knew and loved was destroyed. The land was black. The fire had entered our house and although the damage was serious, it was in 2 rooms. The rest survived but was very black. We also lost our store with a life times collection of tools and so much more.

    Whilst cleaning up and recovering in the house, we could ignore the garden as there was none. But, as spring came along gradually we began to see shhots come from the base of trees we thought were dead. Week by week we had a discovery of another new shoot coming up with the determination and promise of life in the future. Every new shoot was a moment of joy to see the wonder of survival. The most amazing was 18 months after the fire, our pomegranate bush suddenly put out shoots.

    We will get through this virus. I think it may change the way we behave, think and feel. Maybe a readjusting. But it is human nature to fight to survive and we will and we will adapt. Keep faith believe in the future we will have when we come through this.

Lynn's story

Lynn’s story Many people say they have no regrets in their lives. I have one which still haunts me and fills me with painful sorrow. Many years ago when I was young I drove overland from the UK to NZ with my husband.  We were approaching some border crossing - I dont recall where, but we were in a rocky desert. There was a puppy all alone, miles from anywhere, without water or food. We stopped and brought it into the van -- I gave it some food. And then we argued. My husband said we cannot take it across the border. I wanted to smuggle the pup across. To my everlasting shame I gave into pressure and put the puppy back into the desert. This act has had two major effects on my life. Firstly I NEVER give in to pressure when I know it would be wrong. Secondly: I spend much of my time and money helping rescue dogs around the world. While there can never be forgiveness for what I did, I can try to ease the suffering of other dogs. I just hope there re...

The first part of my blog’s name does not need explanation, I am a heart centered person with all its advantages and disadvantages, the second part refers (or at least it was my intention) to nutrition and health, which is an important part of my blog’s topics. I have been interested in health, nutrition, psychology, human emotions and feelings for more than 15 years, read hundreds of books, magazines, articles and although I have a degree in nutrition, still many things are unclear and so much more to learn. Although there are hundreds of trends and diets to follow, forums to attend, information to read (from which quite many are controversial or too sophisticated to understand by everyone) still there are so many people, who have (sometimes serious) issues facing life challenges, having eating disorders or problems with alcohol or/and drugs. For many years I thought I had belonged to the minority having issues from childhood but in recent years I met and saw so many peo...
