Victorious weekender

As she sips on the milk chocolate dark ale, she can feel her taste buds wiggling in pleasure. A warmth feeling growing inside her chest.
She was not expecting the drink to be as nice. She was not expecting to get even a drink that day. It was offered. She did not refused it.
She had been behind her desk alone in the office snacking on crisps and digestive biscuits for hours. It was the weekend, she was there. Not expecting to see anyone familiar. She had left for a few minutes stretching her legs and slowly dragging herself back hoping to call for victory by finishing her to do list. She came back to find a full glass with ale handed in by another to be victorious weekender.
(Thank you)

Finding a partner in the making

I love working on projects. I love working with others.

Others got inspired and joined us to develop a taster and full day workshop on Money. After the taster...

Kidnapper?

A kidnapper is a person who abducts someone and holds them captive, typically to obtain a ransom. There are many kidnappers in one life. Those who love you may be you holding you captive until all is gone. Your work is too taking away your childhood dream so you can keep running on the treadmill. A tree is too, it gives you air. Cut it, you may die. Find and name your kidnapper and weight whether you shall escape or stay. Remember though as you live one another emerge because the definition of yourself does not exist, you are dependent on others and the environment you are in.
