'Life opens up opportunities to you, and you either take them or you stay afraid of taking them.'

Thanks for the quote Jim Carrey. You're pretty damn cool.

I'm busy today. Although I'm not going out as early as I thought which gives me time to drink this here coffee and smoke a cigarette. Ah, simple pleasures.

Yesterday I walked EVERYWHERE, wee'd in a bottle (that doctor is some sort of pervert, I'm sure of it), giggled and had good chats with two lovely friends, drank cheap wine, and was insulted by a taxi driver. So all in all, a good day. Also, I might set myself a little photography project taking pictures of everyone's ankles. That's right.

The more I read about Dyspraxia, the more I understand why Ben does some of the things he does. It has made me realise that he's stronger and works harder than most children his age, just with what we would call the 'simplest' of tasks. He's a brave little man. Capable of more than we realise. I love you Ben. You feed my spirit and help keep it alive just by being you.

My world is full of people, my world is full of hope and joy and laughter and spiritual medicine. Just needed to look in the right places.
