Be a Bee.

I was shocked the other day to realise that the one year anniversary of the Arena bombing was today… A whole year already… Crazy to think how much my life has changed in a year – but how thankful we must all be to actually have a life to live.

I’ve been seeing a lot of deaths affecting my friends in the past few months, and some have concerned people around my age or younger. It’s been incredibly sobering. My dad was 38 when he died – and I’m very aware that I’m like two thirds of my way to that age… You never know what’s around the corner so it’s a good reminder to never waste a day. It sounds corny but it’s true.

I always try to make the most out of my time, whether it takes me to a pub or up a mountain. I’m so content to not waste time with people who can’t be arsed with me. Last year my life had a massive reset and its a great feeling being able to retain friendships on merit rather than longevity. It’s a great feeling not relying on others to be happy! And although there are still lots of things I’m unhappy about in The Chronicles of David, at least I have the choice to make life a little more memorable – a choice that some people sadly forget they have or feel they’ve lost – a choice ripped away from 22 souls last year.

So don’t waste a second. Don’t look back in anger, cos nobody lives forever. Be selfless, but be selfish too. Be a busy little bee, being just as busy as a bee can be.

Anyway that’s enough emotion from me to last a fucking lifetime. So here’s a stupid joke to return the normality… Ahem… I went to Chester Zoo the other day and saw a baguette in a cage. The keeper told me it was bread in captivity.
