Today we went to Libertys
I didn't buy anything.
But as I wondered the serene boastful halls of luxury goods, I had a few ideas.
When I have money of my own, everything will smell phenomenal.
There will be scented candles on every surface that will be lit at every opportunity.
Lavender bags will line every clothes drawer and room scent will linger lightly in the air.
The linens will smell of vanilla and ocean dew, the soap will be mint basil rosemary.
The kitchen will always smell of freshly baked goods, sweet sugary cinnamon icing.
My space will be a heaven of scent, and every nose will rejoice to enter it.
There will be books everywhere.
Bright, colorful, loud books and soft vintage books. Books about music and art and animals. Philosophy, biography, psychology. Fiction, nonfiction. Books about high seas adventures and steamy romances, books filled with beautiful recipes, diagrams, drawings. Books to fill the walls and lay scattered around the surfaces. Books to fill a wondering mind and a rainy afternoon.
LAMDA is one of the leading drama schools in the English-speaking world
"The institutions that combined to form LAMDA date from 1861, making the Academy the oldest of its kind in Britain, with a long-established reputation for excellence.
The early twentieth century saw a profound change in how theatre was created and this necessitated a change in how actors were trained. What we now recognise as drama schools began to appear. LAMDA was perfectly placed for this revolution and began training theatre practioners in earnest.
The past few years have witnessed important growth for the Academy . A vital move to a larger and more visible home on the Talgarth Road in West London has enabled LAMDA to further develop the campus and training facilities for its highly talented students. Furthermore, in June 2004, the Academy became an affiliate of the prestigious Conservatoire for Dance and Drama, reinforcing its status as a leading institution in both acting and technical theatre.
Today the Academy is synonymous with professionally trained actors and theatre technicians. Scarcely a year goes by without LAMDA's former students being honoured at a major film, television or theatre award ceremony. LAMDA has equally gained a reputation as a source of critically acclaimed new writing with two plays (Mark Ravenhill's Mother Clap's Molly House and Di Trevis' Remembrance of Things Past ) devised and first performed at LAMDA before transferring to the National Theatre and beyond.
In recent years, LAMDA has also gained great acclaim in the corporate and educational sectors. LAMDA Business Performance (LBP) combines expertise in drama training with communication, team-building and public speaking skills."

Stop, Listen.
Recently, a good friend said to me that being in a relationship with someone can make you see things in a different light, but only when you are alone do you truly grow as a person.
I have decided that they could not be more wrong.
If there is one thing that I can say I know for sure it is this;
It is only through our relationships with others that we can begin to learn the truth of things. Everything that is truly meaningful in life has to do with connections, not isolation.
"To help, to continually help and share, that is the sum of all knowledge; that is the meaning of art." - Eleonora Duse
