Our story.......

I always knew that there had to be a different possibility.  I knew that there had to be something different than what I could see around me.  I was living in London and one of my favourite things to do was to jump on one of the big red buses, get a seat at the front (up the top of course) and watch London.  That city always intrigued me. 

One day I was riding around on the bus, for quite a while, as I did not have much money, so I did this to entertain myself.  I watched all the people go by (from my pole position on the top of the bus at the front) and asked myself “Where is all the happiness?”  “Is this planet not supposed to be a place of fun and joy?”   So I kept watching these people and there appeared to be no happiness.  It was not chosen.  Trauma and drama and sadness and anger seemed to be the places where people felt more comfortable functioning from.  It did not matter if we were travelling through the wealthy area, poor area, black, Indian, hippy, white, jewish – whatever area it was, I could not see any happiness.   I knew that something else could be possible, and I knew that I wished to create something to assist in the awareness of the greatness of people and the planet.  “What would it take to increase the happiness quota?”

I then saw a very famous musician wearing a t-shirt that said “kiss my arse”.  OK great we have freedom of speech and all of that, but wouldn’t it be nicer to be creating something that was more of an invitation?  Where total strangers felt more in communion with each other, more approachable, more willing to be them and change the world.

My target was (and is) to create a space where people would be more vulnerable and willing to break down the barriers we have all created and made so solid?  What would it look like to be more vulnerable with each other?  True vulnerability, where you show up as you in totality, where you are able to receive the value of you.  What would that look like and what could I create?

So I designed and created Good Vibes for You whilst traveling around on those big red buses in London!  My first idea was to create t-shirts. One of my first designs was;

“Imagine what you would do if you knew you couldn’t fail”

This was like a mantra of mine for as long as I could remember, not sure where I picked up the words, or when I decided to jumble them all together to make this personal mantra.  And I ask you what is failing anyway?  Is it not just something that doesn’t go according to “the big plan?” What if you just followed the energy and were never vested in the outcome of what occurs?  To just have fun with whatever it is you are choosing to do/be.  No matter what it is.  Are you able to be truly grateful for you and truly grateful for everything you create – no matter what it looks like and no matter how long it takes?  To plant a billion seeds of creation and allow them to grow as they desire to grow?

I desired people to be healed and nurtured and to see some value in themselves through what I was creating.  Through the t-shirts I first created, and then through bumper stickers and fridge magnets and now water – Good Vibes for You Water. 

I would like people to feel a comfort in their bottle of water, something that creates the space that they know there are greater possibilities, that they are not going crazy, that the guys in the white coats are not about to come and get them, that what they would like to create and BE and KNOW actually IS possible.

I had a lady ring me from Australia who wished to thank me as she had been married for 15 years and had 6 kids and was been beaten up by her husband emotionally and physically.  She had one of Good Vibes magnets :

“Imagine what you would do if you knew you couldn’t fail”

On her fridge, and she said every day she would get up and read it and it gave her the strength to know that she had the courage to leave her husband.  So she left him, with her kids and started a new life of joy, knowing that she was going to be OK, she had no idea what would occur, but she knew that she had the courage and the strength to value herself enough to choose again.  To me Good Vibes for You was a success!

I was also at a festival in Sydney and I was walking through a very busy crowd and a guy who was walking in the opposite direction looked at my t-shirt which read:

“Be open to the moments of life – do not be afraid.”

And then he looked me straight in the eyes and I could see that it changed something for him in that moment of his life, something changed and I could receive the gratitude he had for me.  It was simple, easy and joyful.  Oh so joyful.  Another success

If I can change one person’s life with Good Vibes for You then I consider myself a success.  So what would it take to change the world?  What would it take for everyone to increase their happiness quota (just because they can) and what would it take for everyone to perceive, know, be and receive the value of them?
