a meditation on a (temporary) return to the Antipodes

seeing the suburbs with new eyes

I love the houses, the neat gardens, the lemon trees, palm trees, the verandahs, their dinky names (Avalon, Tara)...

  1. Oh wow. I am seeing it through very green eyes.

    Our neighbourhood is looking sooooooooo scruffy. Boarded up houses, litter everywhere, overgrown hedges, weeds in the cracks...
    There was even a turd lying on a discarded t shirt at the top of our road today ;(

    The really sad thing is that I'm not feeling much like trying to change it anymore...I just want to run away from it all.
