Our close friends Vicki and Ben Kramer have a lovely little boy who required a heart operation shortly after birth. It touched our hearts when we heard what it took to support their family during those early days of little Zach's life. So now we want to give as much as possible to all families who...

Using Pain to Focus on What Matters
Thanks to a comment one night on my Facebook status, I spent the previous night dreaming through what my life would be like without a job. It wasn't pretty, I did NOT like it. Whilst my brain might be a bit addled these days with 'Severe Vertigo', I still have the power to think, reason,... Continue Reading →
How Vulnerability Helped Me Find Myself

I expressed my emotions through my photography, and it was quite vivid! Yes, that is my head with string wrapped around it like a roast meat. It is experimental photography,... Continue Reading →

She once wrote in a letter to a young fan named Jeremy, "I'm probably no better than you, but I'm certainly your equal." These simple words carry a world of wisdom. It's not always easy to say, but it's... Continue Reading →
Being an Online Entrepreneur
Wow, over the last eleven years of writing articles - I haven't written many articles about entrepreneur's ! So in a twisted away, I am answering the question of ... Why not? Well, I was being an entrepreneur, and online most of the time. What did I imagine 'being an entrepreneur' meant? For me, entrepreneurial-ism meant finding ways to... Continue Reading →
Photography, My Recreational Diversion
"Photography to the amateur is recreation, to the professional it is work, and hard work too, no matter how pleasurable it my be" ~ E. Weston I found this quote upon the Facebook-wall of Mel Neumann, a fellow photographer here in Adelaide, South Australia. Whilst I like the quote, it bugged me that it defines... Continue Reading →
