AUSTRALIA ~ The Antipodes

AUSTRALIA ~ The Antipodes
I love a sunburnt country / A land of sweeping plains / Of ragged mountain ranges / Of droughts and flooding rains / I love her far horizons / I love her jewel-sea / Her beauty and her terror / The wide brown land for me / ~ Dorothea Mackellar (1885-1968)

I love your catches of life on the wing. I am just a wandering blog-surfer. Keep on dreaming. Keep on believing in your worth separate from whoever is in your life.

Appreciate the special person in your life. But life is worthwhile even should you find yourself solo. The solitary wanderer sees more.

If you've a mind, come check out my blog : WRITING IN THE CROSSHAIRS {as in a rifle scope - authors need to focus their words into clarity.} www.rolandyeomans.blogspot.com.
