Jubilant

So Ive drafted about seven point four blogs in the last couple of weeks and never really got to the posting point! That ends today! Ima gonna keep it short and sweet but I just have a couple of things to say.

Firstly reading my book on the train this chilly morning I stumbled upon yet another great quote. Paul Hoffman writes "no one of real intelligence will accept anythng just because some authority declares it to be so, dont accept the truth of anything you have not confirmed for yourself"
I like this because it addresses a key issue in today's society. Too many people take what they hear, from adds or the grapevine as fact, without taking the time to investigate its validity. I for one like to know things for myself, and believe that those who do take the time to investigate will improve overall society, and perhaps improve quality of life!

Finally on a far happier note, a good friend of mine has a favourite word, namely 'jubilant'. Jubilant means showing and expressing triumphant joy. I love this word, and am working toward showing jubilation in everyday, because lets face it, we've been given an incredible blessing in this life!
