nua

its a new year.

It has to be a good time because the tinsel is all safely packed away.

Its a time to think ahead, a time to plan new ventures.

So what can we do in these grim economic times?

Well it might be a good time to explore places near rather than far............maybe climb into an attic or cut price store and locate a tent, camping used to be fun........why not do it again.

Then there is local day tripping, have you really explored all the local beauty spots?

Local history, look up your own past and that of your community.

If you can still afford the phone bills, start a blog.

Write that novel, do that painting............really start that hobby you always meant to.

Most of all don't let the market forces grind you down. We are worth a lot more than the sum total of our credit.

Rediscover second hand shops, if you ever stopped.

Read books...........learn poems..............write them.

Join a social movement.

Above all don't let the economic depression become your depression..........maybe we had too much, and maybe it wasn't even fulfilling us.

enjoy the nua
