Navigating Life: A Kiwi's Tale of Unconventional Adventures

๐Ÿ’šMลrena!๐Ÿ‘‹  Have you ever felt that you need to explain or justify what you're doing, why you're doing and how? You may hear on the grapevine....those lil whispers "Holey moley! What are they doing?!" 

"Do they even know what they're doing?!" "Did you hear about ...blah blah". "Meh, it's Michelle she just does 'shut' like that all the time". ๐Ÿ˜ I mean, all that 'shut' could be all in my head too lol and even if it was it's not really any of my business. But the actual 'feelings' can be real. To really start connecting to self more and getting into those feelings is to just remember to, do you- be you. 

I don't know about you but I feel a story coming on! I'l make it up as I go but hopefully the message is clear. 

Okey dokey... 

In the quaint town of Kiwiville (yeah I know๐Ÿ˜), nestled beneath rolling green hills, lived a Mฤori fella, named Tane (Tah-nay for you all out there). This fella had an unorthodox way of looking at the world, often described as the town's "creative eccentric." They would've probably just called him a clown to be honest. ๐Ÿ˜

Anyway one sunny day, Tane decided to head out for a bit of a ' walk about'  and as usual, he chose an offbeat path. 

He cruised through fields of vibrant wildflowers (picked a bit of puha (poo-ha) for a boil up๐Ÿ‘Œ )  and sang songs to the native birds, much to their amusement especially the Tui, cause... they're pretty good singers!  His route wound through a dense forest, and when asked about it, he quipped, "I'm taking the scenic route, not lost!"

As Tane ventured deeper into the woods, his creativity shone through. He collected leaves, twigs, and even a peculiarly shaped rock. By the time he emerged from the forest, he had crafted a whimsical sculpture that captured the essence of the Mฤori culture.

His fellow Kiwivillians couldn't help but crack up at his eccentricity. They wondered how he'd end up, but Tane's response was always the same, he'd give them "the look" ๐Ÿ‘€ lol. 

Eventually, the town learned to appreciate Tane's unique way of navigating life. He not only added colour to Kiwiville but also showed them that the most scenic journeys often lead to the most vibrant destinations. The end. 

A reminder to give yourself something to think about over your cornflakes. 

"Life's an adventure, and I'm the creative cartographer, mapping out the scenic, uncharted routes. I'm never lost, just savouring the detours"

Have the most amazing day for you! Love your guts, Shel.๐Ÿ’š
