There's something to be said for Kitchen Table Wisdom - you know, like in the old days when people sat around the kitchen table after a meal and talked about life, the universe and the meaning of it all - as well as the gossip doing the rounds in town...

Well, that's what this place is - a place to share common wisdom, thoughts and feelings about things important and unimportant, that bring us joy, laughter and happiness and that trouble, sadden, confuse and anger us ...

What I write here is what's 'real' for me. It won't always be PC or 'nice'. We're missing out on true connection and chances to grow and change because there's too little authenticity, too little honesty, too much holding back what we really feel and mean.

Welcome to my world...

I used to have a copyright claim here, but I've removed it...

Ideas don't belong to anyone -

they come to those who are receptive and are to be used for the well being of all...

I find images and movies and music all over the web

and I use them to accent/expand on my thoughts and understandings...


If you feel you have experienced or received something of value in reading my posts,

please consider either:

or paying it forward to those who need

material and emotional/spiritual sustenance in this world...


Thank You

Flowers Are Red...


I'm a Kiwi... and this is what I'm fighting for... for my child and for all children...



This video makes me sob - for my young child, for my grown children, for all the children subjected to factory-model schooling...

If it doesn't elicit a similar response in you, then you don't "get" it; you're still stuck in the matrix, and you don't see children and are not motivated as a parent or teacher or education policy wheeler/dealer by loving/putting children first...

 
We do need education change, but NOT the oligarchs' education 'deform'  currently sweeping through the US, the UK, Australia and New Zealand.

We need something that honours each unique child...

    If we continue to take away all of the creative avenues in the curriculum and limit responses to only bubbled in tests, what a drag school will become for our students. It will also drive them as an adult to see the world as a place of no color and diversity,and a place where exploration and risks are not allowed. The deformers must really like lack luster surroundings. They are creating a very colorless world. Not all flowers are red, and I want it to stay that way.
