And, as is often the way with a beginning like this, once she had actually been seen, well, she just seemed to stay seen.
All in Thoughts
The Ballad Of Invisible Uniqueness
Unexpectedly, if I am being honest, as the grey and overcast weather had seemed set for the season. But blue skies appeared and so did the people. It was that kind of day.
Simple Words
Simple words for a change
And Yet She Continued To Help Him Be The Best That He Could
She liked to think that she was helping him to be the best that he could be, and to maybe fulfill some of the dreams and desires that he managed to keep hidden most of the time.
The Secret Of Happiness And An Empty Park Bench
So right now I am grateful for early morning walks and unexpectedly beautiful sunrises, especially when the night has been long and sleepless.
Absolute Certainty That Things Are Not Right
Fighting the demons in the hours of silence. Where exaggerated anxieties invade and conquer and fear is the unwelcome norm. And everyone else sleeps the sleep of the healthy.
Dream Big, Dream Strange
I had a dream last night. A strange dream, even by my usual strange standards.
Upon Reflection
Perhaps only those with a heightened sense of time would venture out in such conditions, to walk the shifting, crunching shingle and to hold a defiant face up to the weather.
The Acquisition Of More Unwanted Stuff
Good writing, so I have just read, must awaken a truth in the reader.
Hanging On, Whilst Desperate To Let Go
Just a young girl, hanging on, whilst desperate to let go. Hanging on, in touching distance of traffic and people, rushing, rushing, always rushing. With busy lives, places to be, money to make and dinners to cook.

Random Thoughts From A Different Time
The sheer excitement of rediscovery. Finding something again after so long. Something that I really used to love. It's only been 39 years. Almost, but not quite, 40.
When My Mind Works In A Perverse, Let's Not Call This Idyllic, Kind Of Way
And of course, sometimes I will be spot on when I think this way. I am more than capable of being any of those things at certain times. We all are, no matter how hard we try. But often, mostly, it is just my mind working in a perverse, let’s not call this idyllic, kind of way.
The Present Is All We Ever Really Have
A place that had once been busy and vital but now mostly forgotten by those that have moved on and a generation that knows no different.
The Pleasure Of Challenge Where Normal Worlds Collide
Provoke and question. Shock and confuse. The faces of people tell a million stories when they first notice pictures like these and show their true feelings.
Sometimes, I Feel Like The Tree Is Me
Sometimes, I feel like the tree is me, proudly casting a normal shadow.
Because It Will End, It Will
And today I will be creating memories and collecting images and savouring every single one of them. Like every other day, but perhaps with a little renewed vigour.
