In real and virtual life I collect people.

 

These are a few of my "Collection",  ones I have met in real life and interacted with.

 

A real princess, some world renowned entertainers, a famous ballet dancer, an opera singer, 2 top movie stars, an accused murderer,

a world famous Australian entrepreneur, several politicians ( of all 3 colours) a jet fighter pilot, the youngest professor in the southern hemisphere, world famous musicians ( both classical and popular)  the top jazz singer of her day and her musician husband, 2 police commissioners, a Sydney/Hobart yachtsman, a 100 year old man, a billionaire, several homeless by choice people................and the list goes on

 

jessicadazzler, if you travel and interact you too might be able to start a collection 🙂

 If you're not pulling my leg, that sounds amazing 🙂

 

 I do collect people, but instead of trying to interact with inspiring people, I look for the inspiration in the people already in my life. Some of the people I'm most proud to know are people in my everyday life. But I do hope to meet more amazing people in the coming years 🙂

Jessicadazzler, I would not pull your leg, and by the way that list is only part or the most colourful and high profile ones in my "collection"

If you are searching for inspiration than surely the wider the circle of people you have the more varied and interesting your inspiration would be. 🙂

 

That's true, and I do certainly plan to travel more and meet more people, but I also don't want to be ungrateful for the people that are already in my life 🙂

Never underestimate your capacity to appreciate, like your capacity to love, it is boundless.

 

If I had a good background photo I could turn that into a motivational poster, LOL.

I found one for you 🙂

 

Um, no. Not what I had in mind, but it's an interesting suggestion.

It did bring to mind an ex girlfriend who was well endowed.

She hated it.

She hated the back pain, she hated the shoulder pain, she hated not being able to sleep comfortably, she hated not not being able to get clothes that fitted, she hated being leered at, or glared at, she hated being treated like an airheaded bimbo.

At the risk of sounding cliched it wasn't her figure that attracted me, she was brilliant, imaginative, artistic, she was beautiful in so many ways. I remember feeling intensely happy, when I was with her.

It was nice, remembering her.

 

What exactly is motivational about that photo?
