I care more about the inherent struggle, the journey and less about the ‘profession’
What profession do you admire most and why? This question has no definitive response, as I see merit and worth in everything from being a cleaner to the Astrophysicist. There is incredible merit, courage, and resilience needed to wake up every morning, knowing that a job is simply a means to an end. It doesn’t…

A small slice of community … amongst life’s chaos.
If you were going to open up a shop, what would you sell? I had always dreamt of owning a second-hand (thrift store), not just a run of mill kinda store, but one that could act as a sort of community hub. I envisaged having a reader’s nook, where people could sit and read, maybe…

A heady combination of …
What is the most important thing to carry with you all the time? If I could only nominate ‘the most’ important it would need to be the combination of an open mind, compassion for self and others, a sense of self-efficacy, a tenacious spirit and a great sense of irreverence or humour. With that combination…

disABILITY …
What change, big or small, would you like your blog to make in the world? This is a great question and one which requires a decent, thoughtful response. I would like my post to resonate with families of children with disabilities. I would like it if just one person was able to take from my…

Limitless
Describe your life in an alternate universe. Should I set the scene in a utopian landscape, or a sun-lit noir dystopia? Am I powerful? Powerless? Impoverished or privileged? Do I have agency and influence over my life? Or am I like a rag doll that’s left to senselessly ride the turbulent waves of life? Am…

Priceless …
What’s the most money you’ve ever spent on a meal? Was it worth it? I’m going to answer this from a different angle. Yes, I’ve dined at 5-star restaurants and hotels from my city of Sydney to countries worldwide, including London, Paris and Tokyo. They were OK but over-priced and underwhelming at the end of…

A work in progress.
Scour the news for an entirely uninteresting story. Consider how it connects to your life. Write about that. Ok, I’m not going to lie; when I first read this prompt, my eyes sort of glazed over. Not sort of; they actually did. I thought, okay, that’s pretty uninspiring (to me); however, after reflecting upon it…

Here we go …
List 30 things that make you happy. Here’s hoping I have no problem whatsoever listing 30 things that make me happy; okay, are we ready?

Exercising my green thumb
Describe one habit that brings you joy. Like most people I’ve got a mixed bag of relatively good and bad habits. Some of which provide a great source of joy, regardless if I’ve done it a million times already. Tending to both my indoor and outdoor plants is a constant source of joy. Every morning…

Little Miss Eclectic.
What are you curious about? The question should read “what aren’t I curious about?”. I have, and, always have had an insatiable appetite to know ‘why’ or ‘how’ of ‘what’ this or that is the way it is. I want to know how much a cloud weighs, or what’s the distance between this cloud and…
