“A philosopher once asked, “Are we human because we gaze at the stars, or do we gaze at them because we are human?” Pointless, really…”Do the stars gaze back?” Now that’s a question.” — Neil Gaiman (Stardust) Haven’t done a quote of the week post in a long time so this is me getting back on that …
Modernism: Visit Glasgow
Most people gave me an odd look, cocked their heads and were generally befuddled as to why I would stop in Glasgow. “You’d be better off going to Edinburgh. Glasgow’s just a city,” they insisted. But then again, the Glencoe Mountains isn’t the Isle of Skye but they both fall under ‘hiking through nature.’ Each …
Liveliness: Visiting Inverness
I’m rather lagging with these “Visiting” posts but I’ll delve into the epic saga of recent days when it is relevant to general interest. In short form, it basically means I’ll soon have a distinctive London theme to my topics. For now, I do somewhat miss the northern skies of Inverness. It feels very much …
Gain Confidence with Comedy: Be Your Own Airdot

You are life.” Eckhart Tolle I like to think I embody the pastel colours of the above photograph, taken on an equally pastel temperature sort of day, mid-February, three years past when some things …
Quiet Destiny: Delphi
(An old post, transferred from my now cold blog, Introvert in the Corner). At one point, humans saw this city turned more village, with accompanying attractions these days, as the centre of the world. A modern Delphic home. Athens might have been the seat of power but Delphi predicted who would sit in it. …
Take the Flower: Leap and Dream
Reach out your hand. Take.
Take the flower. Thank you amandapalmer.
TheArtofAsking turned over the dirt, fertilised, planted, watered my imagination. Now I feel the flowers can start growing and giving back.
To begin, I am blogging again. I intend to fearlessly share my photos and writing. This will happen in the form of travel blogs, life blogs, fiction writing, poetry and endless amounts of graphic art and photography.
I hope to share my observations and entertain. I hope to bring light into the dreary and inspiration into the dull.
