Yesterday I was having a regular, emotional 'I'm miserable and need all the love in the world' day and one of my closest friends, on receiving the SOS text turned up in the cold and dark bearing smiles, a hug, chocolate cookies and gossip.In 30 seconds my life suddenly couldn't have been better. It goes without saying that she is an angel.
It is all too easy in the world we live in to become materialistically obsessed and reliant - and I am hardly one to speak... I would rather live of baked beans and be able to get the Ted Baker dress rather than eat well and wear jeans... but my point is however many bargains you managed to grab, dont let the things that matter slip away. yes you could see a chocolate cookie as a material object but its not. trust me. (because its chocolate!!)
...but maybe sometimes, when you are reaching for an emotional spend, an emotional splurge - grab the friend, gossip and chocolate instead. because the fix isn't just instant. it lasts forever.
and always remember... when revision or emotions are involved... calories dont count.
