For centuries the practice of taking time out to do something different has been recognised as a sure-fire way of recharging your batteries, igniting your enthusiasm and solving problems. Indians, I’m led to believe, do it more than any other nation. People with religious beliefs do it once a year,[…]
A powerful moment in time…
A powerful moment in time like those that happened in Manchester are extremely painful. 22 innocent lives, many young ones that will never experience many of the joys we take for granted as adults, have been taken, 120 people injured and thousands will carry emotional scars. Another powerful moment I find is working[…]
The Promise Of Spring
Spring into Spring As the mornings and evenings grow lighter and the last of the winter frosts have disappeared, there is a great feeling of new beginnings. The trees are in blossom and the others have green buds. The grass is starting to grow faster than even the most avid[…]
