Targets ….by Susi Bocks
go for it
follow your instincts
put your pedal to the metal
full steam ahead

i hope you remember
to be playful and filled with joy
as you hit all those milestones
the markers of your success
The BLIND MEN and An ELEPHANT!
Have you heard about the story of a group of blind men visiting an elephant to find out what it was like?? ‘The blind men and an elephant’ is one of my favourites, and I often share it with my students to introduce them to the concept of perception.

I happily watched them play, prey, fight, love according to my rules.
I let myself became one with all forgetting that you have to keep yourself at a distance in order to keep an eye on them so they don’t misbehave.

The Shift
They hugged each other and cried, though it had been only two hours since they last met. They were strong individuals, but tormented by the agony of being lost in an alien place. They could not speak or read the local language. Phone calls did not go through for reasons unknown. It took ages rewinding … Continue reading The Shift
