Photo by Mavluda Tashbaeva on Pexels.com This isn’t quite me, age-wise or fashion-wise. I favour a black polo neck with black jeans and decorated black boots. Years ago a friend asked me why I was hiding. When I asked why she said that wearing all black was seen as not wanting to be seen. IContinueContinue reading “Black with Black”

No
Do you or your family make any special dishes for the holidays? During my childhood we used to have amazing treats at Christmas, all made by mum and nan. They worked so hard that was part of the joy in it, you felt so spoilt. Then we became better off, and could have nice foodContinueContinue reading “No”
Read a book
If you didn’t need sleep, what would you do with all the extra time? Hito Maybe write. I don’t fancy going for a walk in the middle of the night alone. I wouldn’t want to put tv on as my husband may object. Same goes for vacuuming. I certainly wouldn’t do the washing or runContinueContinue reading “Read a book”
Want to be Happier?
I found this list amongst the papers I’ve been sorting out for five years. It struck me as quite useful so I thought I’d share it. 1.

I learn about the extinction of species that have disappeared because of how selfish we are. This world is a whole and their survival was key to ours.ContinueContinue reading “Humanity x 3”

Such a simple message with a lifetime of meaning. The moment you stop being yourself in order to make life easier for others, you lose the uniqueness that is the real you. Obviously we can’t live our lives running roughshod over others, demanding everything we want, when we want it, our way. We also can’tContinueContinue reading “One of a Kind”

Not a large list unless…
Who are your current most favorite people? I have some true friends, I won’t name them on here, but they’re the kind of people that can accept the humanity of others. No pressure to be perfect around them. One goes back 54 years, I’ve written about her and our inexplicable yet boundless relationship. One IContinueContinue reading “Not a large list unless…”
Seasons and Reasons
