The Bigger Picture

I have quite a few visual challenges in that I am very myopic (i.e. 'near-sighted') as well as I have an eye disease which affects my vision, but another challenge is that I am colour blind. My Dad used to call it 'colour ignorant' because we do see colour, we just do not always know …

Safe Words

Norm and I ended up having a lovely Sunday last week, even though we had no plans to do anything at all. I had been wanting to go to the Under the Trees Market in Constantia for ages but we are terrible about getting organised and out of the house on weekends. We decided the …

The Answer

This week has been a communications disaster zone for me! On Monday I received a package which contained a brass bell with a bird on it. It was an item which I had almost bought, in fact I put it into my shopping cart but did not purchase it, so how did it arrive?? There …

Choose Love

This week I heard someone say that they do not believe in 'falling' in love, that to have a relationship you have to get up each day and 'choose' to be in love. I guess that is no different than what 'they' say about being happy, that it is a choice. I always thought that …

Attitude of Gratitude

No matter how bad you may think your life is, there is someone who would love to 'swap' places with you. No matter how much you may dislike your body, there is always someone who would love to have it (and no I am not talking about 'having' it I mean as in a body …

The Wounded Heart

I subscribe to a site which sends me 'Morning Messages' and these are always so spot on it is a bit scary. Of course, critics will say that like 'horoscopes' the messages are vague enough that they will resonate with most people, but then if it resonates with me, then that is enough. On Tuesday …

Dragonflies and Fairies

This week we had our first meeting of the Trailblazers for the Church of the Earth. I mentioned last week that I have been asked to help with their social media and blogs. I have already created a Pinterest account for us as we attended a blog webinar which said that Pinterest is one of …
