Grow from challenges
Every challenge has a hidden blessing. Life is to be lived, new experiences, new challenges that keeps old age from the door of both body and mind. Perhaps for me life has become too challenging. I feel I am in a maze with many doors, behind each door is a chocolate cookie (good experience) or …
Do action for a reaction
Only through doing does prosperity come. If life is a pool of water, doing nothing won’t create many ripples in that pool, you have to throw rocks into the water to get the ripples. Part of the energy of the ripples you make feedback at you, so you need to be ready for reaping the …
Good communication for prosperity
Good communication avoids trouble and supports prosperity. I took a photograph yesterday of a male blackbird in full song. The blackbird sings to inform the world of its territorial claims, which will be the basis for attracting a mate and raising young. On the same day I saw male blackbirds fighting over territory. By way …
Find your niche and patron
Everyone can find a niche and a patron that allows their unique talent to shine. Poetry was never my speciality, I am told I produce killer metaphors, but when I attempt poetry I flee a bloody crime scene. Wordsmith I may be, but poet I am not. I follow a few poets on WordPress, amongst …

Death of the Iron Lady
The greatest UK politician since Winston Churchill died today. I write this after an announcement is made in the media, the death of Margaret Thatcher. This lady lived in my town of Colchester back in 1949, one of several women from my town who make a great role model for what women can do if …
Share content via a story
You can code a paradigm of beliefs and behaviours into a story. If you sow seeds on concrete it is likely you will get no harvest from it. If content are seeds, such as a blog posts, poetry or photography then planting them into suitable ground is vital to get anything from them. Imagine eating …
New design for a new era
Smartphones and tablets will transform the internet. The transformation of a well designed community website I visit to cope with smartphones and tablets hit home to me the coming revolution that these new gadgets will have on the internet. In 2012 about 20% of US internet traffic was said to be via smartphone or tablet, …
