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”

Creating Happiness
Sometimes happiness arrives on a sunbeam, seemingly out of nowhere, and unexpected joy takes over our lives. Other times life is so challenging we wouldn’t recognise happiness if the sunbeam smacked us straight between the eyes! Imagine that! Drowning in focus It sounds like an urban myth but it’s actually true, that what your focusContinueContinue reading “Creating Happiness”

World Patriot
This world seems so big to us, but in galactic terms it’s tiny. When you see images of it floating in space you realise how at one we are. One tiny planet that is minuscule even in terms of our own universe, a pinprick in space. Invisible from a few short light years away. WeContinueContinue reading “World Patriot”

Weird title I know. But in line with trying out different styles I thought I’d write about a few things that it would be helpful to have known when I was 16.

We make those choices everyContinueContinue reading “Thinking About Beauty”

Annoyingly Helpful?
Love it I’m a person who can’t walk past a problem, if anyone tells me that they’re not happy I’m in there like a ninja, using every skill I’ve ever learned, every ability and piece of training I’ve ever had, and asking for all possible help and guidance. Anything I can do to help thatContinueContinue reading “Annoyingly Helpful?”
Morning Human
I found this on social media this morning and thought how true it is. We are the product of our entire experience and it changes us in so many ways. Sometimes the effect is positive, sometimes not. Sometimes it takes time to encompass past events and allow them to either fade or bring out theContinueContinue reading “Morning Human”
