Inspirational Music: Zaki Ibrahim
At the moment, I am obsessed with this lady lol.... great music!
Singer Zaki Ibrahim is a soul in bloom who is creating a soulful sound steeped in poetry and earnest emotion. Born to a South African father who was an anti-apartheid political activist involved in community broadcast radio and a Scottish-English mother who taught English as a second language, Zaki has been as much shaped by the diversity of her Apartheid-era hometown and household as she has by her time spent in Canada (where she now based). "[G]oing back and forth as a child, [between South Africa and Canada,] I got to see a lot of the differences in things like education quality and people's attitude towards it. On one side in South Africa people are struggling to go to school while there were a lot of riots, and then coming to North America later on in high school people are skipping school and the attitude is completely different. Just being able to observe that was an experience. It shaped the way I see the world in general, in interesting ways that come out in my art and in my poetry."

OK, Was Summer Early In London Hmmmm?!
There's always that funny thing that you never know if Summer will really ever manifest (for real) in the UK - so this Spring has been suspiciously sunny and warm - wonderful - with the bank holidays and the Royal wedding buzz... so forgive me for acing like it's Summer already lol! I just want to live it up now while it lasts! Then if June/July/August is slightly as sunny as these days, then it'll be an extra bonus! I LOVE this time of year!!!

Music: Beautiful Things!
This song is perfect today, it reminds me that even with all the crap that's around us, there is now more reason to celebrate what is beautiful!
... And if you can't see these good things, look harder. It's there, sometimes well hidden under/through other things that don't appear to catch your attention.
I'm still striving to cut out negative things/people/situations in my life!

Mood Music: Bebel Gilberto
It's often true to say that you can tell a lot about a person's mood with a simple choic of song. Today was one of those Bebel Gilberto days! And these two songs sum up this laid back weekend perfectly, where I'm in-between seasons, hoping that the sun will burst into Spring sometime soon
