I was silenced...

I suggest strongly you watch this TED video. Brene Brown talks about worthiness/courage/compassion/connection and vulnerability.

It silenced me and I recon it will do the same for you.

Thanks to maya*made for bring it to my attention.

It does not seem to stop.

My heart and thoughts are being sent over to our neighbour over the water to New Zealand.

Sliden



It has been so long since I slid down a water slide. Man it was F.U.N. You could not get me off. Even the Little Man loved it!

Helen has organised volunteers who will stitch up blocks which will be assembled and quilted to raise money for the QLD disasters. What a GREAT way to assist. Thanks Helen for organising such a huge project - i believe there is several quilts in the making! Aussie Aussie Aussie - oi oi oi
