Flashbacks at a time of letting go…
Day 19 of my 21 Days of Transience, and you find me in a Dundee car park… Parking spots were hard to come by the day my daughter started the next chapter of her life as a student in Dundee. The car was loaded with all that stuff parents gather together for...
Edging back from the precipice…
To Day 18 of my 21 Days of Transience in which I explore why some things are easier to do for others than myself… I always know when I’m spiralling downwards into something nonsensical. What goes first is my logic, followed by my ability to sustain an argument,...
Looking for a sense of belonging…
