Ah, just the very tip of the tip of the iceberg.
I may come across as open, willing to share, or divulge some of my deepest and darkest, or rawest and most sensitive stories, moments and or reflections. Yet, the truth is my childhood prepared me to become like a vault – in which my truest, most special and sacred thoughts, feelings, emotions and memories are…

The stress of administrative burden and limited dopamine.
What have you been putting off doing? Why? I’ve been so busy selectively juggling – trying to successfully tread water, amid an ongoing torrent of expectation and responsibility. One such task that I’ve been putting off has been submitting my daughter’s invoices (for her disability support services) Anyway, upon seeing today’s writing prompt, I made…

I’d give it to people of Palestine and the Sudan.
If you had a million dollars to give away, who would you give it to? I’d send it to Palestine and the Sudan. I’d not even take a dollar for myself or family. Why? Because my husband and I have good jobs, we’ve got a roof over our heads, food on the table, petrol in…

The fine print…
What details of your life could you pay more attention to? I mean the very very fine print! Why, you may ask. Well, I swear I need to attend to things that I never envisaged ever needing to do. Between juggling hats and roles, I’m left with what can sometimes be described as a threadbare…

My most valuable traits.
What’s the trait you value most about yourself? My most valuable traits happens to be my ability to face life’s challenges with resilience and an inner warrior mantra. As is my uncanny ability to see life and life’s challenges through a highly nuanced multifaceted lens, while selectively juggling and compartmentalising at the same time. Oh,…

In a heartbeat…
List three jobs you’d consider pursuing if money didn’t matter. I’d give away my profession and become a full time writer and photographer. I’d combine it with a position as a professional traveller. I’d love love love to try my luck as a creative.
