Why be kind to strangers?

June 17, 2022July 4, 2022 / Storyteller / 6 Comments

REVIEW Had to smile the other day when a complete stranger comes up and tells me "You are brave and amazing". I was a bit gobsmacked to tell you the truth. A complete stranger bothered to see my plight? Then to go the extra distance?...Wow! I did get a buzz from receiving those words. I … Continue reading Why be kind to strangers?

Wisdom of Your Ways

April 7, 2022April 7, 2022 / Storyteller / 3 Comments

You look the same without your smile kindred spirit. You shine. Heart kind and gentle. Your cherished soul flows true and brightens my horizon with its soft glow. A road long traversed. The broken dreams of yesteryear land softly by your side. Time has soothed the sting of missed opportunities. You have seen the length … Continue reading Wisdom of Your Ways

The Labels of our Ways

March 18, 2022April 6, 2022 / Storyteller / Leave a comment

The earth echoes our voice. It spreads a tune from here to way beyond. Gently caressing our souls with reverberated splendour.  But then we jolt. We jolt back to reality.

We are a forgotten success story. Maybe you have heard of us. It wasn't always a success story. I don't even know who campaigned for change.

Write on your terms

March 6, 2022April 1, 2022 / Storyteller / 2 Comments

REVIEW Talk or write? Some people do well speaking. Others crash and burn. I'm intrigued. I know when I see peoples eyes glaze over I've lost them. So it begs the question. Why are we able to listen to a guest speaker ramble on until the cows come home but not a mate banging on … Continue reading Write on your terms

Jumping to Conclusions

March 4, 2022April 1, 2022 / Storyteller / 5 Comments

REVIEW Jumping to conclusions is pretty common. We rely on mental shortcuts. I know I do. It's in our blood. It's quicker. So what if there isn't that much proof in the pudding.
