Went to see a neighbourhood child...

At her riding lesson. She got a real kick out of it. Glad I went because she was looking for my car in the carpark….I would have felt bad if I had forgotten my promise.

How I did it
It made me
Enriched 
How I did it: Discovered myths, legends, storytelling, urban myths, psychology and all those other insights into the naturual and supernatural world.Identified which artists, authors, writers etc make me feel alive and energised, avoided those that did not.Remembered that there is more to life than what I see Read how I did it…
It made me
Less stressed 
How I did it: Its not fool proof but I have two complete sets of keys. I also have a set with a family member who lives close by. I also have one hidden in case I lock myself out on day.My cellphone is now attached to my key ring. This helps alot as I can ring it if necessary.The wallet is an ongoing problem...not helped by a dog who likes to take it out for a chew. Read how I did it…

content
How I did it: I ended up having a play with different coloured plasticine balls. Choosing different colours to represent different things eg green for environment/nature, blue for dreams/imagination, black and white for balance, pink for family (I only had a limited range of colours!)

Donkeys again...

Its amazing how one thing leads to another. Through getting my donkeys I met lots of new people. They visit Resthomes and cheer up people. People cross the road to talk to them. Kids with disabilities strike up deep friendships.
