Experiences

Fire is all encompassing, it wipes away all the good things but like all life's lessons it also exposes those things you do not need.  It is an unwanted cleansing process, but once it has been delivered to you, grab it for what it is and learn from it.

On the 26th November, 1984  my entire business was wiped out by fire starting at about 4am.  Even now some 25 years later I occasionaly think of something that I am looking for and truly believe it is somewhere and slowly the magic mind computer tells me it went in the fire.

Decision making really comes easy when your choices are limited and you are a women.  What else would I do, this is what I love doing and besides no point in crying over spilt milk get get out the back and start cleaning up. So a simple borrowed rake and broom began the rebuilding process.

      Your survival through this one, is the same as my survival through the Recession we had to have combined with the one I did not ask for.  Life delivers challenges to us all, if your fit enough, focused and have the simple ability to begin with the smallest task you too can survive anything.
