Beginning in the Middle
After 10 years in Vancouver we have found ourselves washed up in Canberra with three kids, it is 2020, and this blog is an attempt to understand who we are, why we are here and to document our path forward. To date I feel that life has just happened to us in a mostly passive way, maybe that is just a part of who we are, which is fine, so long as it is not simply apathy and submission. Life is not a fait accompli, so maybe a little more consciousness from us to try and bend it towards a path we would like to take is something we should aim for. During this recent difficult transition period of adapting to Canberra, I feel that many little moments of joy, inspiration and fun have been missed, overlooked and forgotten, so I'm hoping that this blog will help us to recognise those times, and demonstrate life isn't all drudgery (even though it sometimes feels it is), and encourage us to find more excitement, challenges and ways to enjoy life. So, who are we currently? Mama -
