It has been a while

It has been a while since I wrote in ‘mysophistgarden’. Mostly because I was writing somewhere else.

What does it take to make a change?

A conversation with a friendly acquaintance a week or two ago comes to mind as I sit to write. It was about after the time when things have changed, are changing and should change; and feelings. The question that would summarise the content of it was: What does it take to move on and change…

following where it grows

This morning my sabre saw and I cut out 95% of a bohemia tree which has been growing in my parents back garden for a very, very long time. As is its want, the tree is strappy and seeks the company of other trees to help it grow up to the sky.  Over the past…
