Time is Money



I spent an interesting couple of hours in the town centre people watching. All around me everyone was rushing to and fro, either shopping or working, all with serious, determined expressions on their faces. No one really seemed to be enjoying themselves, it was all busy, busy, business. Except, standing quietly and still in the midst of all this rush and seriousness was a man with a walking stick collecting for charity. He too watched all the bustle and hustle around him with an amused and interested expression.

A Traveller's Tale.

Passing on family stories from generation to generation keeps those who came before and are part of us alive.

Life is for....


Life is for....
Laughing, listening, learning, exploring, taking risks,
loving and sharing.

Do not confine your children to your own learning, for they were born in another time.

Early Days

I've completed the second page of my sketchbook. I really need to allocate a bit more time to this or I won't finish before the deadline! I have been thinking about each new person's potential and how everyone likes to see themselves or other loved family members in a new baby and make predictions on who and what that baby will become as an adult. All filtered through their own likes and dislikes, fears and hopes absorbed from their own lifetime's experience and journey.
