    Today I got my lip peirced by my lovely piercer, Michelle, at work. It’s something I never thought I would do but it’s so elegant and beautiful. I love it. Especially the red jewel to match my hair. The best early birthday present I have ever received. The girls at work spoil me. Bless them 😍👌✌️

 Friends are the most important people to have in your life. And I’m not talking about who has the most friends or highest rate on Facebook, I’m talking about genuine, kind, loving and caring friends. The people who are always there no matter what, that never judge you, that guide you through happiness and through all your struggles. The ones that are there to catch you when you mess up and pull you back to sanity. And mostly the ones that save you, from terrible situations or judgement, from a deep struggle, or sometimes from yourself. Their hearts are filled with pure gold and their strength beams. They are so fiercely protective over you and love you so much they’d die for you. And to know that you would do the exact same things for them, that’s what you are in their eyes. That’s how legendary friendships are formed, stronger than any other bond. 

I admit I was scared, being a loner at times, that as I grew up I’d have no friends. But through everything my friends have been there or Iv discovered precious gems along the way through the rough times that I love and cherish and all my friends I have now I am ever so thankful everyday for them. 

Help each other, love each other, let your friends know that you’re always there for them and be kind!

WHAT IS HAPPINESS? 

I sit and ask myself truly what is happiness? Society would class me as someone who is always happy or always meant to be but the crushing reality is that a lot of the time it’s a persona I put on to distract myself from feeling sad. Happiness is portrayed as simple and easy like it’s starring us right in the face. However, unfortunately it is much simpler and easier to be sad and bathe in negativity. 

Happiness is a journey, fleeting, in the moment, bursting and leaving sometimes in an instant. You will never just arrive at destination happiness, it’s more like a mini vacation destination. And hey you’re back to reality. That is why it is a transformation. When you realise happiness is in the moment you truly live in and take in, transforming the way you see the world when it’s bathed in sunlight and positivity. Although ironically striving and chasing happiness brings more unhappiness because you know it’s fleeting so you begin to think of the sadness of your issues, daily life, worries all waiting for you when it’s over. You lose the moment in a cloudy haze of disappointment. It’s a bittersweet concept, that feeling good is harder to achieve than feeling down. 

Love on the other hand can make happiness explode. When in love even the smallest thing can make you so happy. Their smile, laugh, unique gestures and sayings, a text, call and their very presence invites happiness to subdue you, intoxicate you and to keep you addicted. Forget drugs and alcohol, happiness when you’re in love triumphs all. 

But as everything always does, love has a dark side. It looms over heavily and it even feels like the light of the moon can’t save you from the darkness. Love leaving is the ultimate cancer for happiness. Happiness seems like a mirage on the horizon, so close yet so untouchable and so far away from reality. It causes failure to see happiness in anything but only the one that has hurt you. A viscous cycle as you remember they have hurt you and are the cause of your broken heart. Yes it does get better but you’re never exactly the same on the happiness plain after heartache. It either leaves a nasty scar on your heart that you despise or a scar that you look at in remembrance, a little longing, courage and love and a past so sweet it never truly leaves you. 

Happiness in all it’s forms and concepts, moments and expression is glorious. It is finding your balance within happiness and it’s transforming journey that is key. Go with the flow, learn, flourish and strengthen your inner peace and you will find your way with happiness.

  This puppy is so loved and adored. She has a beautiful soul and a bright personality already at five weeks old. You can just tell by looking into her eyes when she plays with you. She has a bright family future and is blessed with kindness and compassion by those who surround her. She has brought smiles and happiness into the world, making everyone’s day. It’s amazing how we can connect with animals on a tender and loving relationship. We are their whole lives and they will always be apart of ours. This puppy has a great destiny and bless her cute little soul forever more.

       I like to change my hair colour often and I always go for bright crazy colours. I feel I am not myself without it. I like to express my creativity through my hair and because of my job I get to experiment a lot. I recently decided to cut my hair even though I have been trying to grow it for years. It’s time for a change and the best way to do that is to start with your look. Spice it up, hair grows back so don’t be scared. I feel better, lighter and a bit more like myself again. It wasn’t actually supposed to go yellow but my hair has a mind of it’s own when it comes to how the colour turns out. I don’t mind it though. I have been all the colours of the rainbow. Coloured hair is one of my most favourite things! On myself, on others and creating colourful hair at work. It’s a part of you so show it off and make yourself look great! 

Peace out ✌️

Hi, well I have never gotten into the world of blogging yet so stay with me as a figure it out. But I created this blog to express my writing and to let everybody into the mind of Jacqueline Ann Lente or Jackie for short. I’m pretty interesting, I promise. I currently study at University of Western Sydney doing a Bachelor of Arts degree, majoring in English. I write to express my feelings, inner thoughts and to express my creativity. I am also really inspired by reading books, poems, quotes and other people’s expressions and opinions of the world. I dream big and hope to explore the world. I like to think of myself as a care free spirit, a curious Gemini and I like to treat life like a crazy adventure.

I hope you enjoy the ride
