Change of mind
If you were going to open up a shop, what would you sell? I used to dream about owning a really cool op shop – that’s a thrift store for those not familiar to the term ‘op-shop’. I guess it relates to the fact that the goods have a second opportunity to be bought, or…

This is highly subjective.
What is the most important thing to carry with you all the time? For me it goes without saying that the most important thing to carry is the right attitude. The right attitude is a robust concoction of resilience, compassion, emotional intelligence, humour, humility, integrity, personal reserve and a pinch of healthy detachment. The right…

What’s the most money you’ve ever spent on a meal? Was it worth it? Honestly I can’t remember, however what I am sure about is that obviously it was too much and definitely not worth it. Having said that some of the most delicious food/meals that I have had the privilege to eat are from…

Phone screensaver/home screens
Scour the news for an entirely uninteresting story. Consider how it connects to your life. Write about that. I just read a mind-numbingly boring piece on the psychology of saved images and phone home screens. What’s on my mobile phone home screen? A photo of trees awash with glorious sunlight. BTW we call our mobile…

My plants.
Describe one habit that brings you joy. I love my outdoor garden, however it is my indoor plants that bring me such innocent and honest joy. I squeal like a little girl when I discover new growth, an unfurling leaf or flower. Every morning I say “good morning my beautiful plants” and rejoice in the…

Where do I start?
What are you curious about? My middle name is curious! Ok, perhaps that’s a bit of a stretch. Seriously though, isn’t life all about learning, about being absorbed and inspired by curiosity? I’m curious about everything, I kid you not! If I’m reading an article and am presented with a word, term or topic I’m…

Do-you-think-he-saurus
If you could bring back one dinosaur, which one would it be? I’d bring back a Do-you-think-he-saurus and play a wicket game of hide & seek.

Threadbare
How would you describe yourself to someone who can’t see you? I would describe myself as being somewhat threadbare. That is a little tattered and worse for ware in some places, as if the tides of life have been a little too abrasive- a little too harsh. Yet, other parts of me remain deeply textured…

Running on empty in more ways than one.
Yesterday I finally relented and stopped at the service station (servo) to fill my car with petrol. I was pumping petrol, watching the bowser display. Anyway, another driver was filling up, her car facing the opposite direction. Given that is it winter here (Southern Hemisphere) and we are currently having colder than normal weather, wind…

To be honest …
If you won two free plane tickets, where would you go? Given the current world social and political climate, the raging wars and attempted genocides I’d definitely not fly internationally. Perhaps if I had to choose somewhere I’d fly up to Broome in Western Australia, hire a fully kitted out off-road 4WD camper-van and head…
