I like some failure in my afternoon; the colours are all wrong IMHO.
A brief drawing session ended with more failures than successes. And this is fine.

A school's snare drum is a good visual representation of what Term 4 looks and feels like.

Every Year 6 kid in Sydney has visited here on their way to the Snowy Mountains. I did, last century. Probably photographic proof at mum and dad's in some photo album.

This nifty zine is from @sarahleawest.art and is a beautiful prayer for those who experience chronic pain or illness. It is quite moving to read and to sit with this prayer.

Today's ParkRun effort is brought to you by the existential question of "How many breaths will I have exhausted from my allocated amount by doing this physical activity in the hope of elongating my length of days on the earth (God willing)" and the letter "M".
