Serafinas Say



Am loving Winter break. During the season we travel town to town and trade with the Gypsy travellers Fair in New Zealand and no we are not like the ones on TV. But we get a lot of people who come to see us. I don,t mind the tarot readings. 1 person at a time I can handle . But crowds at the stall phew too much. Now that i am older i stay in bed a lot as I get told off for scratching people who try to touch me.
Tell me who would want a couple of hundred strangers a day touching them?
At the moment we are at the beach, no strangers and mum is doing a lot of work on the net.
I love it I can sleep , play, sunbathe with no hassles.
And best of all I love our little log burner in our truck I sprawl out and soak that up.

Being Good?


Being Good:
Being good? What exactly is that? Surely it is dependent on opinion, background, culture and preference?
What does good mean to you?
Some people enjoy hurting others but I feel that is not a genuine feeling but an expression of hurt and anger not being expressed and then coming out in bizarre ways.
Just be you, yourself. You are and always were good enough. You are right now a perfect expression of you. No one elses standards involved. Measuring up is not required. What makes you feel good, filled up, enriched and alive. Be real with yourself doing those things is good for you. So there is a whole lot of goodness here and there is no judgement involved.
Be real with yourself and others. That’s all, just be real.
Have you ever been told you were “good’ for not eating the cake on offer? There is nothing bad or good about cake, it is simply a choice, a choice to decide what serves you best right now. I personally think birthday cakes are always good because of the fun involved.
Here are some questions to ask yourself:
Is a tidy house good?
Is having a high paying job good?
Is being thin good?
I could go on but it really depends on what you want, what you prefer. When everyone is having fun, sometimes you get mess especially with children.
 It is just an opinion and a preference. If you look at old paintings peoples shapes were quite different. Does your body feel comfortable and performs when you want it to do things? Once again it is a choice or genetics maybe.
Be you that’s what counts! So give up being good and just be you.
Someone once told me I was a good girl (I’m in my forties) for doing a small job for them when I had finished mine. Well no I did not do it to be good, but to get everything done so everyone could relax.
No goodness about it, just choice)

Changes, turns and roudabouts and networking in these interesting times

Am loving Nature and have decided to avoid the news for a while. Seems to be predominantly negative.
If NZ was a business and sold it's assets it would go broke. If a plumber sold all his tools how would he work. Where did common sense get too. Life is becoming complicated and common sense seems to be a thing of the past. I hope it comes back.
It is bizarre watching these strange times we live in where the love of people for each other seems to be absent and the love of money rules. I know these times were predicted by many people but it seems a shame that humanity needs a wake up call quite this big.
Why not wake up now. See and realise we are all one and get on with creating great lives.
It is great to see community gardens popping up again. Growing your own food and a sense of community with it. How great.
There are some fantastic people out there doing some fantastic things and I would like to connect them with each other.
I started The NZ Conscious Peoples networking page on facebook to try and achieve this. Feel free to join. Share your vision your ideas and I feel if people can connect then we can support each other and share.
I have met fabulous
Teachers, community workers, people working in corrections, tourism and in many areas.
