We sit by the sea and survey the sea. She asks questions. One after the other. “Where does the sea begin and where does it end?” ‘Can we build a new sea?“ "If we can’t build a new sea, then we must take care of this sea, right? ”

I nod in agreement. Hoping that the right men and women listen. I came here to shoot the breeze with her. She is kicking up a storm.

How many umbrellas do you need to keep the one Sun out?
How many colours can each umbrella throw?

How many shapes can emerge in the dance of light and shadow?

How many men & women are part of the dance?
And how many know they are!?! L

Choices rule our world. Life every minute is a matter of choice. We are where are because of the choices we made then. We will be where we will be because of the choices we make now. Choose well!
The fruits of good choosing helps secure the health of our futures!

Being amongst the rural plains is always refreshing. For one there is colour. For another these are not ‘sanitised’ and ‘refined’. But as authentic as it can get. And in the raw jagged edges, I see my roots breach fresh ground

A bunch of flies were the source of the trouble. A violent swat with the tail and then a furious shake of the head and the horns. And then moments of peace descend on the road. The horns offer a new frame within the frame.

A bird in hand is worth two in a bush they say. But what happens to a kid’s heart when a picture of one emerges in her hand?

The flutter in her eyes and the urgent joy that the twitch in the corner of her mouth gives away are flights of joy that no bird can match!

It’s not the big toys that cause the greatest joys. Sure they bring in their own levels of happiness. But the moments spent laughing and waiting for something to emerge are the ones that are green in the mind.
