I’m Here to Represent

Yesterday I talked about earworms so let's get this one out of the way early on....It's a Small World after all! (apologises and begs forgiveness of everyone that is cussing me out right now). Yesterday I was talking to some potential staff members for as part of a recruitment process in SL and the subject [...]

Don’t Just Pay Lip Service to Second Life Experiences

Don’t Just Pay Lip Service to Second Life Experiences

Our Second Lives would be very dull if all we did was shop and this is coming from someone who can shop like a pro! As part of a team of experience creators I am of course passionate about all those other elements that bring joy to our second lives too. Whether that be a [...]

Y’all Need Jesus

Y’all Need Jesus

I've talked before about forgiveness. It's one of those things I wish I was better at for no other reason than people I know who are able to forgive easily tell me it makes them feel better.  They tell me that they forgive for themselves not for other people. I was joking with a friend [...]

One Day My Prince Will Come

One Day My Prince Will Come

The phrase 'you gotta kiss a lot of frogs' before you find the prince never much appealed to me in real life let alone in SL. In SL you're expected to go a lot further than kissing before your prince will reveal himself and that doesn't much appeal to me either.  I'm not judging. If [...]

I'm very capable of letting my mind think of the very worst case scenario and [...]

Out of This Wood Do Not Desire To Go

I've been trying to start this blog post for almost an hour but every time I look at this picture I hear Don Mclean's song lyrics from Vincent in my head "Starry, starry night Paint your palette blue and gray' and I get somewhat distracted from what I originally wanted to talk about. So I've [...]

As We Walk in Fields of Gold

As We Walk in Fields of Gold

I introduced a friend to the music, and the story, of Eva Cassidy a while ago and I've had it in my mind since I first saw this beautiful field of radiant colour at the Yorkshire Dales a couple of months ago to use the space for a picture. So...voilà! I loved the Yorkshire Moors [...]
