2002 -- July's snippets

Viva Espana

Hm. I was told it'd be scorching in July, but it's not. It's just really lovely. What is it with these people who can't deal with the heat? S'pose it's like me not dealing with the cold, but the other way round. Am going to enjoy the Spanish sun now, after being in drizzly stormy old Blighty for 2 weeks.

15 July -- Had a great time in the UK. Will write up more soon, once I've caught up with my work. Must get that done, or I'll have clients beating down my door. Speak later, potato.

"I appreciate your honesty and I enjoy your writing, it is very refreshing. nothing comes even close to it on other websites. If it were not for you I would have never switched, I have always been a big meat eater and an ultimate veggie hater. You succeeded in making eating raw look beautiful, and I am a big sucker for beauty in everything, lol. thank you !!! I hope to meet you some day and do some yoga on the beach :)"
-- Liudmila, Canada

23rd July -- Just found out that my ex-boyfriend, Steve (not Stevie) was killed on Thursday 18th July. He was riding his motorbike and a lorry turned and killed him. Me and Steve used to live together, we had Danka and Lola, our dogs, and I'd like to remember the 5 years we knew:

To Steve

Here's to you, and your bass guitar, here's to you and your camera -- you were going to do something with it all one day. Here's to Lola and Danka, our beautiful girls, the daft smiley one and the little scared one who always weed herself when she fell asleep. And to New Model Army and Big Audio Dynamite, your favourites then, probably still in your top 5 now. Here's to your trainers you never tied up, and here's to your cut off shorts with girlie leggings underneath, and you remember all those nights I spent plaiting your hair? Here's to our home where we shared and we tried, if we were older or wiser it might have worked, but we had a lot of living to do and had to do that apart. Here's to our car crash which hurt me inside, wrote both our cars off, and made us cry. Here's to the trees, which walked by our side, here's to the sheep and the horses and the cows. Remember Wales, and the amount of animals trying to get in our car with us? They must have loved our vibe. Here's to nature, we loved our time there, camping in the freezing cold, and not getting a wink's sleep. Here's to Europe, our adventure through countries, when your spirit first saw so much variety in life. Here's to our friends and the love that they still share -- to Jek, Danny, Lisa, Jackie, Brenda -- how they cry for you now, but know you're still there. Here's to your little boy, and all the future you that I don't know. Here's to your life, Steve, you lived it so free. I know this world restricted you and ultimately this plane couldn't hold you. You're now the earth, the sun, the sky, the wind, and the air that we breathe. You're beauty in everything. You have returned.

Rest in Peace, Mighty Lion, and keep a little music in your soul.

All my love

Shazzie

So I'm going to take the rest of this month off from this column. I am deeply affected by this and many other things which are happening right now, and I need personal space. I know you'll understand. Whatever's going on for you, keep at it, life is abundant in the opportunities it offers you, so long as you face them, and don't run away, you can only go to higher and higher places.
