Forgotten
Life has many doors – some we pass through and some we don’t. Don’t miss this vital door.
Unconditional
Waves like these have an evocative echoing voice as they relentlessly but gently break on the shore. They speak of unending love vast as the ocean. They just keep on coming, sometimes softly rippling but other times surging in with great strength. The shore does nothing to earn the repeated caress.
Be Healthy
Research on life satisfaction and well-being show that, unsurprisingly, personal health is a top priority for most people. We all care deeply about this. In the West, it is a multi-trillion-dollar industry that plays on our desires and insecurities. There are numerous diets that we are encouraged to try – 5:2, Keto, Atkins, Mediterranean, Banting, […]
Who am I?
When navigating, it is obviously important to know where you are to start with. This seal has climbed out of the sea for a rest – its navigational skills are not in question but it looks as if it is asking the question, ‘Who am I?’. Likely, it was probably asking, ‘Who are you taking […]

As we develop this important life skill, there’s plenty of reverting to crawling or bottom shuffling […]
IDOLS
Imagine seeing the world the wrong way round! George Malcolm Stratton (1865 – 1957) was an American psychologist who wanted to know what would happen to the brain’s perception if he could turn normal vision upside down. Wearing special glasses called ‘invertoscopes’ for 8 days that did this, he discovered that his brain could adjust to the upside world and make it seem normal!
An Eternity
It’s a phrase still used sometimes by people waiting when time seems to drag. The younger generation would more likely describe something as ‘taking ages’. Either way, it’s a long time, so long that time ceases to have a reliable meaning. Many books have been written about time and it is even a branch of […]
