It Was A Day Of Contrasts ...


In the morning I rode a camel named Wally across the Australian Outback 
I watched the sunrise up above Uluru (Ayres Rock)
In the evening I wore a black dress and heels
I attended Matilda at the Lyric in Sydney
It was a day of contrasts 
I flew from the remote vast desert to crowded busy city life
I rode on a bus, a camel, in a plane and on a train 
I had a panic attack amidst turbulence 
I was happy to helped
I was sad about an ending, and glad about a beginning.
Goals Dreams and Wishes came true
I was reminded of the last time I was in this city
I forgot to reply to a text received the previous day.
I continued to be unwell due to limited dietary choices
I missed someone who I knew would be able to assist
I was given advice 
I laughed with my friend over facebook messenger
I looked at photos of my children on facebook
I was grateful for technology
I cried over a thoughtful message
I spoke words of happiness, joy, fear, sorrow, regret and difficulties
I wished on the moon.
I thanked my lucky stars.
I lived another day of my life ...

What an exciting day! The one and only time I rode a camel was in 1965 in Cairo at the base of The Pyramids.
