YOU’RE STRONG

‘Smiling doesn’t always mean you’re happy. Sometimes it simple means that you’re a strong person.’

Smiling does not necessarily indicate that we are happy, according to new research at Brighton and Sussex Medical School (BSMS). It is widely believed that smiling means a person is happy, and it usually occurs when they are engaging with another person or group of people.

BOOKS FALL OPEN

Books fall open,
you fall in,
delighted where,
you’ve never been.
Hear voices
not once heard before,
Reach world through world,
through door on door.
Find unexpected
keys to things,
locked up beyond
imaginings….
True books will venture,
Dare you out,
Whisper secrets,
Maybe shout,
across the gloom,
to you in need
Who hanker for
a book to read.

WHAT INSPIRES YOU

There are a lot of things that can provide inspiration – seeing other people accomplish great things, seeing other people overcome adversity, hearing inspirational quotes from great people, even the sheer beauty of nature can remind us just how lucky we are to be alive.
