Kindness and Inspiration

What is the legacy you want to leave behind? I write to help I write because you, total stranger, matter. I try to offer the kindness to the world that is so often missing. I try to show a better way to be. I’d love to be one of the big names able to reachContinueContinue reading “Kindness and Inspiration”

I love it within reason

How do you feel about cold weather? The true British nature is moderate in all things. Unfortunately life mages a lot of people she nowadays, which is sad, but underneath it all we’re a fairly easy going people. As such our weather is quite unsettling when it direct follow the rules.

Possibly

Have you ever broken a bone? I did once kick my husband in the foot in bare feet whilst he was wearing leather shoes. The pain was rather emphatic, the toe immediately went several shades of pink to purple, and I had trouble with shoes for a while. Fortunately it was summer so I couldContinueContinue reading “Possibly”

I don’t work

How do you balance work and home life? I haven’t had a classic day job for 14 years, but I never placed work above home anyway. When I see the demands of my husband’s corporate life, a contract that says ‘35 hours a week, or as necessary‘, I have never and would never do that.ContinueContinue reading “I don’t work”

As such much of my life hasn’t so much been lived as battled through. It sounds great to be a survivor who hasContinueContinue reading “Too Many”

Leader

Are you a leader or a follower? I chose a male image as I do have a masculine energy (93% according to my birth-chart). I also have eyes like that when you really p*ss me off, which is fortunately very hard to do. Those eyes also appear when I apparently ‘x-ray people’ and that makesContinueContinue reading “Leader”

A Hairy Story

As I’ve already played with the idea of five fruits, aka the daily prompt, I had to come up with something different. This is so true of me It’s taken me over 8 years to find a decent hairdresser in my area. One appeared to be good, but the colourist translated ‘never bleach my hair’ContinueContinue reading “A Hairy Story”

Negative Trash Talk

I couldn’t resist this adorable puppy, however… People to avoid at all costs! One of the things we all need to avoid is the negative talk that permeates every area of our society. Talk that brings you down, unsettles you, makes you anxious, hurts you. That sort of thing. But there’s one particular type ofContinueContinue reading “Negative Trash Talk”
