So, a few weeks back, some friends and I made a short film called 'The Boys'! We're a little creative outfit that has made a production company so that we can create stories that we think need to be told and so that we don't have to wait for scripts or auditions to decide how we get to share these stories.

So, today I’ve been at the shop and a homeless man came in and sat down and started eating a pastry. I was a little startled as a big bunch of dried flowers had obscured him from view. When I saw him, I said hello and that I was sorry but he couldn’t eat his pastry inside but was welcome to sit out and I’d bring him a cup of tea. He got upset, and started getting quite loud. He was repeating himself, saying he didn’t even like what he was eating. He said he had stomach cancer and he was homeless. He shifted from near tears to shouting quite quickly. He then started calling me names as we had the same conversation over again. I started to feel uncomfortable and told him so, that I would like him to calm down. I ended up calling the police because I felt trapped, I didn’t want to leave, he was near the door and I didn’t get a sense he would be violent. In the end a woman coming in to buy something was the shift for him to go.

So something I've been quietly working on is now ready to be said out loud! I've recently started a business on all things communication. It's all based on developing great emotional intelligence and simple ways to practically apply it.

As good as it looks 💙💧🦋

Happy 40th wedding anniversary to the comedy duo that is ma and papa Lippold. I have so much to thank my parents for, they are truly incredible people and the closeness of our family is a testament to their love, support, humour, and huge hearts. A bit of an emotional day because I was supposed to be there celebrating with them but life had other plans. I am desperately homesick at the moment, it is the longest I’ve ever been not seeing my family, my UK friends, and the place that will always be my home. I miss it all deeply. But it also reminds me how much I love them and am loved in return. Fingers crossed that I’ll be there this time next year 🤞🏻❤️

Funny how a place lives in you as much as you live in it.

So much love to @stepha.burgess 💘💝💘

Everything the light touches 🌅
