Sunrise and Sunset
What’s your favourite time of day? I adore the magical moment when the sun gently awakens, imbuing all it touches with a golden glow. It holds within its very touch the promise of a new day, new hope, and new choices. Have you ever had the privilege of sitting on a beach dune pre sunrise,…

What motivates me?
What motivates you? I’m equally driven by extrinsic and intrinsic motivators. I strive to be the best version of myself. My desire to live with integrity means that I am driven by internal goals, desires and intentions. I’m motivated by my family and their needs. I motivated by nature, the plants and animals. I’m inspired…

The catharsis: Writing offers a time to connect, reconnect, process, to be creative, reflective and introspective simultaneously.
Sometimes, words fail me. Sad, but true. While other times, it’s as though words dance before my very eyes, mysteriously revealing themselves and the incredible images they convey. They beg me to choose them, giving them life, weaving them into meaningful streams of consciousness. They magically, mystically appear as though I am simply a conduit,…

Why do I write? Seriously?
Sometimes, words fail me. Sad, but true. While other times, it’s as though words dance before my very eyes, mysteriously revealing themselves and the incredible images they convey.

My perception of my physical attributes? Or my personality? Funny, how I see and value myself may differ to others understandings and points of reference, or…

The importance of feeling like the other – the outsider.
I’m currently travelling throughout Europe, on a family holiday. As an Australian, who is english speaking it is easy to exist in my own little bubble, feeling comfortable and confident in my own privileged sphere. My husband is Dutch, from the Netherlands, but has lived in Australia since we first met during a university holiday…

When in a state of flow, time just seems to stop – to never flow.
When I am completely immersed in creative activities, such as writing and photohraphy, it is as though time is mysteriously suspended. I find that there is almost a sense of dissociation, that is I am so completely entrenched in what I am doing, that the rest of the world can kind of slip away. I…

Misinformation and disinformation. Billionaires- and unethical sociopaths/narcissists
What bothers you and why? I vehemently dislike the misuse of power and control by those who possess disproportionate wealth – aka Billionaires such as Murdoch and Musk, who readily push their conservative agendas, using propaganda, misinformation and disinformation. I despise the fact that these type of individuals wield so much power and control, including…
