Speaking a new language as you learn it, creates great opportunities for funny moments, blunders and faux pas.

Not to worry, this is one of the great excuses for adopting, necessarily, a child-like manner expressed with the utterance of fantasy-like phrases (errors) and the most banal comments. But this is a road you must travel to learn to speak and communicate.

It’s also more often than not, charming to the person you are speaking with.

What form of life exists on planets other than our own familiar one is still a subject of speculation.

Have you thought, this morning, of picking an area you have paid no attention to for a long time and speculating upon it?. Pondering the most unlikely possibilities in connection with this area, is a good exercise for the active mind and perhaps a tool for finding new roads to travel, new worlds to greet.

Better than the lure of so called “problems”.

Wash and dry.
