A bit of hodgepodge

 

Hi everyone, here is the latest hodgepodge

1. How do you define beauty? 

Beauty is something that comes from withing, outward beauty fades inner beauty doesn’t

2. Have you ever taken a trip by train? If so where did you go and what did you think of the experience? If not do you have any desire to do so? Where would you like to go? (You might find inspiration here-The Best Train Trips in The World)

Yes, I gave taken a number of train trips and I would love to take a train holiday as in the Indian Pacific train from Sydney to Perth

3. Shell shocked, bombshell, bandshell, shellacking, in a nutshell, walking on eggshells...choose one and tell us why you chose it, or how it relates to your life in some way currently.

Nutshell, why because at times I wish someone would tell me a story in a nutshell instead of dragging it on and on.

4. Tacos, pistachios, oysters, clams, eggs...your favorite food on the list that comes in/with a shell? 

Eggs, without a doubt

5. Are birthdays a big deal in your house? Is your own birthday a big deal in some way? Elaborate. 

Not anymore, once they were but not know, I also wish my birthday would be a big deal at times and not just another day. The last time I felt anyone made a big deal on my birthday was on my 60^th and it was done by my niece Kelli

6. Insert your own random thought here. 

People need to realise that their mistakes are a seed of wisdom. If someone can learn from their mistakes, then they will be a better person and hopefully the same mistake wouldn’t happen over and over. The key is to acknowledge your mistakes and not try to hide your stuff up, easier said then done.
