• My Vegan Milestone

    Today is an important day for me. It symbolises a milestone that few people thought I would make. You see, on February 7, 2011 I had the crazy idea pop into my mind that I could go vegan for a few days. Those few days turned into months and as of today, into an entire year.  At the time I was...
  • To 2012 and having no regrets.

    It recently occurred to me that I might not know as much as I thought I did about my loved ones. I am not talking about how many sugars my Dad takes in his tea in the morning (two) or my littlest brother’s favourite alcoholic beverage (everything), but the really truly important things. When...
  • A woman should have...

    I have chosen not to write a post of my own today, instead to share some amazing words by Maya Angelou; a truly inspiration and beautiful woman, inside and out. May you all have an amazing weekend and I hope you take something positive and life affirming from her words. Enjoy :) A woman should...
  • The family you choose yourself.

    It is entirely bizarre how one simple change in your routine can affect so much. It was about six months into my new life as a vegan (so, say July) that it occurred to me that I could volunteer my spare time to the local animal shelter. "Yes, that's what I shall do", I thought. And I did. Not...

I have taken a bit of a break from it over the past year and am now working four days a week, and while I study externally, I am still really bracing myself for stress overload, boring topics I don't...
  • HTW: Curing a hangover

    Had I started this Wednesday segment a little earlier in the year I would have realised the need for this post LAST week when post Australia Day 'headaches' would have been rife. Alas, it is here now. While it has been a while since my last hangover (the hangover from hell: it was an entire 12...

Moon and Moon

2


There is a depravity deep within this hour. The world has long fallen into slumber and only the owls and insomniacs remain. Winter’s chill is especially harsh to those who do not dream. To those who choose to sit stagnantly and watch the dark turn to light and back to dark again. It is only in the space where time and mind are left behind that the prospect of clarity may be bartered for. We are those who do not wish to dream.
