I love the words that flow from human minds. I'm blessed that I can read and write and think in metaphors and similes. Fascinated by comparisons of others like... how? How does your mind see that I could never see in a million years without borrowing someone else's lense? The vivid picture you create with symbols that represent spoken sounds ... that's incredible, can I feel your power?


The instagram photographers capture moments and scenes that I can only ever dream and even if I was right there with them I could never see. Your perception astonishes me, thank you for sharing with the world. Seriously #incredible.

Photograph by @paulnicklen for @natgeo and @sea_legacy. Orcas chase a huge ball of herring in the everlasting #sunset of #Norway. One of the most beautiful sights I have ever seen. I know that I promised bears all week but I thought it would be fun to throw in another image of the most amazing animals I have had the pleasure of engaging with underwater. Normally, these orcas kept their distance and ignored me but please follow me on @paulnicklen to see some very close encounters.

I appreciate the talent of others and envy their wisdom but most of all I'm glad they can paint in colour and splash my world full of life! Thank you for pursuing your talent and passion and sharing it with the rest of us commoners. Respect.

But all I do is just lay in bed

and hide under the covers

Yeah I know I should be brave 

but I'm just too afraid of all this change.

And it's too hard to focus through all this doubt

I keep making these to-do lists

But nothing gets crossed out...
