Light dances with dark,
patterns shimmering in unison
with trees outside,
swaying in the morning breeze –
a gift to those who foresake
the warmth of their beds
on this lazy Sunday morning. … More Glow
The Quiet Moments

As we approach what promises to be much needed downtime at the end of a long year, let’s remember to feed not only our bodies, but also our souls… … More The Quiet Moments
Overload
Nov 19, 2021
It’s hard to stop. And it’s hard to see this for what it is: an addiction. A craving – a compulsion – that none of us asked for, yet it crept into us as we went along with the modern world’s frantic evolution of communication technology.
We see the older generations as backwards. Not with the times. Struggling to operate a BlackBerry, or some other dated relic from the technological dark ages just ten years ago. They’re not constantly communicating. They’re out of the loop. … More Overload

Feb 14, 2020
A new world. A new vision.
Lying with one eye covered,
I’m almost floating in the clouds:
engulfed in blue and white;

no electricity,
nor concerns to capture my time. … More Let it Flow: A Bird’s Eye View
Input overload: how do you cope?
Dec 6, 2018
We see it all around us: news, alerts, information. It hits us from every angle: getting to us through print, digital, and audio means. It’s not enough that we face general streams of content flooding our senses. We’ve personalised it, too.
