Not in My Wildest Dreams
Did I ever think I’d constantly write about being quiet and preferring peace. In my youth I had all kinds of ideas, but no idea how to achieve them. My parents were more likely to say no than ‘why not, we will back you.’ They considered praise to be dangerous as it created arrogance. TheContinueContinue reading “Not in My Wildest Dreams”

I have found though that one meditation works better than the other for me. Boy have I struggled…I wrote in my poemContinueContinue reading “Hands Up…!”
Wisdom – Snippet
What actually is wisdom? Is it life experience? A philosophy? The words of the great thinkers? An insight into human nature? Or is it a deep knowledge of yourself, who you are, what you need, what works for you? It’s all those things, but wisdom is only worthwhile if you use the knowledge to createContinueContinue reading “Wisdom – Snippet”

Lots of things
What could you do differently? There is a lot of useful information on the subject of navigating a tricky world from a different perspective, in my book. Might help.
