Bon Giorno, cheerthefuckupists! We hope you’ve had a cheerful and productive week and that the month of march is going smoothly for you all. We’re delighted to see that the group now totals 996 members, which is, of course, only 4 away from a nice four-figured 1000! Reaching that many members is certainly a milestone, to see it as something reachable makes us very happy indeed. So, a huge thank you goes out to anyone who has invited friends and thought that our little group is good enough to share. We really do appreciate it.

We’ve thought about dreams a bit this week. It’s funny that, in dreams, you can create faces and places and experiences that don’t really exist. Think about a time when you’ve seen somebody or a place in a dream that you have never seen in reality. Its interesting to wonder where these things come from and fun to realise the way your mind interprets elements of the day in different ways when you’re asleep. It’s a nice thing to share with others. We hope that this week brings you sweet and enjoyable dreams.
What is really interesting about dreams is that they’re the only place you can really find silence. Silence doesn’t exist when we are awake. There are always distant cars or birds or just wind to create some kind of soundtrack to our lives. This night-time soundtrack is special – its what we hear in our most private and reflective moments, just before dreams. With that, here is an extract from a book called ‘if nobody speaks of remarkable things’ by Jon Mcgregor.We hope you find something in it.
“If you listen, you can hear it.
The city, it sings.
If you stand quietly, at the foot of a garden, in the middle of a street, on the roof of a house.
It’s clearest at night, when the sound cuts more sharply across the surface of things, when the song reaches out to a place inside you.
It’s a wordless song, for the most, but it’s a song all the same, and nobody hearing it could doubt what it sings.
And the song sings the loudest when you pick out each note.”
love,
Bex+Sam.
