Story Sunday

Next Sunday The Virginity Mission will be out. So I thought I'd leave you this week with some pictures from the mangroves part of my trip.

But before the pictures, this is the last entry in my diary of what I took away from the trip -

I'm not going to be getting back into old habits. I'm going to get out and do things. Spend my money, live it up. That's what I've learnt this trip, that it's the things you do on impulse that you enjoy the most, and the things you do from heart and guts that get you the furthest. Thinking about things delays, causes anxiety and generally helps you chicken out of thrills and action. So from now on, my heart is ruling my head and I'm going to have heaps and heaps of fun!

Ah, yes, maybe I need those words tattooed on my forehead - or my hand, where I'm more likely to see them! Although, I must have spent my money because I have not much in my bank account. :)  I still do things on impulse (much to my husband's despair - he's the ultimate planner). So maybe I did remember some of what I learned.

I hope you enjoy The Virginity Mission, out 1 June.
