 ***Favourite Things***
__________________

  A sense of place of belonging is often established by favourite things an identification with what we find comfortable. I guess it contributes to keeping order in our lives and in the world. Highlights can be part of our favourite things and to reminisce about them by putting them in hard copy also helps to create that safe zone and area where we feel warm comfy at home...

Who I am…


This is a little late but better late than never and I have been afraid to actually write this down for some silly reason.

Well now this is both difficult and different for me but I shall give it a go. I am 47 years old, five foot six and a half inches in height, I have a rounded weathered but smooth skinned face with a peppered moustache and hazel blues eyes. I wear gold rimmed metal framed glasses which always look natural to my face but then again I have worn them since I was four years old, well not this particular pair but many pairs over the years.

My teeth have a neglected look I used to keep them up to scratch at one time but now although the front teeth are all present one being false I have holes in the over all line both upper and lower. My hair is usually a peppered color but recently is dyed to what is called a suntan, a very light brown although I prefer the blonde look it will not take to my hair, it is short on the sides and top and long down to shoulders at the back. A protest at my developing old age I guess.

I am of small frame and reasonably fit although I carry a podgy belly, hard to get rid of since I stopped smoking nearly two years ago now, combined with a develop enjoyment of cooking and good foods. A change from younger years where I have created certain recipes that are very enriching and full of flavour yet not too fattening, one of the secrets of which is pumpkin used as a base. I like to be a jolly sort of humorous type of person at least I do hope that come across when someone meets me.

I am made up of many emotions, although very slow to temper my rage can be very extreme in a verbal sense and yet my heart is just as easily brought to tears. I have matured in many things over the years and as you may suspect I love to write poems and stories as often as possible although I have not reached a stage where I can seem to produce the greatest novel of all time.

I must say that these days I enjoy more the simpler things in life good food, quiet walks, taking in and experiencing everything one can from nature, reading of course and yes even the enjoyment of good art as well as the natural intercourse of talking one which is often left neglected today. But of it all nothing compares to the enjoyment of my little one not yet 4 years of age and youngest of eight, she bring me new delights everyday.

I have been of late involved in voluntary work which gives great satisfaction in being of service to others. I am and like to think that I am still learning new things everyday and try although it is often very hard to look for the good and remain positive as best I can. I like to think that there can be peace in the world and love all around us but of course it does not come freely we do have to work at it.

I had been so busy with things just lately and deliberately avoiding doing this exercise however once I started writing it seemed to flow so do make an effort to contribute your exercise for everyone to enjoy and as well as that it does encourage us all.
