disgruntled thoughts and feelings meet their match...

PASSING THOUGHT: It is so refreshing to find that even in the endless outpourings of so many disgruntled thoughts and feelings, peace, hope and beauty persist in shining on... https://t.co/GH7PlsQxSl

lost positives...

'Whoever you are, no matter how lonely,
the world offers itself to your imagination,
calls to you like the wild geese, harsh and exciting—
over and over announcing your place in the family of things.'

youth today...

Wondering...
Why have young ones (esp teenagers) changed esp in Western societies?
Or is there another perspective?
Could this be the real truth?
We indulge our children as parents (helicopter parenting) + so children feel 'entitled'?
Do private schools perpetuate this scenario? pic.twitter.com/Y1XSvJALcD

the soul becomes dyed...

And the dye is not permanent...It may shift in colour,
tone and texture from time to time...But there are those who try so hard to maintain a basic colour, tone and texture that feels right for them... https://t.co/L45uAVm7rd

ANZAC Day thoughts...

After browsing many Twitter posts about ANZAC Day,
I have come to the conclusion that today has emerged into something ultra-special...
Traditional celebrations may be non-existent...

Perhaps that is good...

For there has been a HUGE injection of spirit
creative spirit
into the day.

Suddenly there is a public demonstration of personal connections with the day,
personal values of the day.


Perhaps we needed this ultra-special time
to appreciate what this day is really all about...
