What's in a name?

According to my Apple dictionary, admittedly not a definitive source, a ‘consideration’ is a thought, reflection, meditation, concern, rumination etc. I would like this blog to do those things. I’m hoping I can keep the posts positive because, as someone once reminded me, it is important to practise the habits of mind that you value and want to foster. For me those are: positivity, curiosity, openness and self-reflection (hence, a blog is a good forum).


Also, I’m calling them 'small' because I would like to try to get into the habit of blogging briefly but often. That way I can reflect on everyday occurrences and make this form of writing and thinking a habit, hopefully.

A walk in the park


This weekend I discovered the best time to go for a walk at the Botanic Gardens. It was 10℃ and pouring with rain. Within about five minutes my coat, gloves and scarf were drenched. After an hour my jeans were completely sodden and very heavy. In that hour of walking I saw only a handful of people. However, I saw and heard lots of birds. In the air, I could smell different plants in different parts of the Gardens. The best part was that most of the time I couldn't see anyone else so it was like being alone in this enormous, city-centre oasis.
