Today inspired by:

my friend Germen and his beautiful land on the Sunshine Coast – The Landing Place.

my friend Dave who lead me through a wonderful conversation and introduced me to the concept of “Tall Poppies”

my friend Paul who inspires me everyday

 

Today…

It’s true, though.

Actions have consequences.

Inactions have them.

We set things in motion

by what we don’t do.
