One of my nearest and dearest is going back home to Queesland and she is an amazing artist who is selling some of her pieces before she leaves the sungroper state.
Tonight at exactly 7.15ish, five unsuspecting friends will venture into the land of a new tradition. A night of poker. food. friends. The oscars playing unsuspectingly in the background and kids firmly tucked in bed.
I love boardgames, but not the crazy types that make the more quiet of us feel uncompfortable, but the ones that bring out the competitor, caveman, cavewoman vibes in all of us.
Favourite Things: The window in my new office the park…
Something about ikea that just excites my soul…Is it the $2 hot dogs, is it the refillable soda, nah I’ve just come from America, so Australian Ikea vibes is slightly pitiful…Its the funky furniture, the colour red, the silver, the beech…
We are shifting into our new venue for our north service this weekend…So me and Jen went shopping galore.
Love the random clocks, love the life span of the stuff, usually the caused by the crappy people who put the stuff together (usually me)
Anyways, lovin Ikea, what would we creatives with no money do without it.
Just had a conversation re: life being black and white, versus grey! Our office and organisation is going through the roof right now, and with much growth, and with much expansion comes a lot of grey!
Org charts that once worked, now faulter, communication systems that were great for a smaller staff/ organisation etc now are irrelevant. Life as you know it changes and what was black and white turns grey.
So as a creative person in the midst of change, what do you do to maintain a sense of direction and a clarity of purpose? My thought for today is to keep asking questions.
Questions are the sign of a great leader, a great friend, a great creative. Someone who doesn’t ignore the grey, but tries to colour it slightly with a new shade of white or black and bring it into some semblance of clarity!
Life not black and white, but is different shades of grey…Great questions bring clarity into the black and white colours, bringing a semblance of direction.
