Bribie Island book exchange last week, when I stumbled across Richard Fidler's 'Saga Land' book -
Enron, Richard Fidler, the Bowls Club and Me?
And listening to the 'Conversations' podcast which aired yesterday was sorrowful listening to me as Sarah is someone I have run into a few times in the past and shared a conversation or two with -
I haven't read Sarah's new book yet, but listening to the honesty of her words in yesterday's podcast I couldn't help thinking of the shadow work Sarah seemed to be doing on herself in a Jungian sense.
I think Sarah would make a good children's book author as well with all of her artist connections, and it may well be good therapy for her at the same time?
I gave a children's book away last Wednesday (pictured above) which I bought years ago at a Buddhist temple thinking it would be good to have around the home if grandchildren came to visit one day, but I can't see that happening anytime soon ... if ever in this lifetime, so I put the book into circulation, rather than having it gather dust on my bookshelf.

Especially after having also listened to the
'Finding Hermes 9: The Metaphysics of Jung' podcast in the You Tube below.
I also saw that the 'Conversations' podcast which aired the day before Sarah's was with Kitty Flanagan, who I have never had a personal conversation with, but did hear her give a live talk at the Byron Writer's Festival the same weekend I saw Sarah down there -
I only went to the Kitty Flanagan talk to hear Andrew Hanson, who was/is a member of a group of comedians my sons used to watch on TV, and to later buy Andrew's children's book for my now adult son, as a bit of a father/son joke:-)
Sometimes our actions benefit kids we will never know personally in our own lives, and the ones that we do know can be our teachers, too.
