Colours of Me
I thought I always had to feel Yellow. Like the Sunshine in the excitement on the first day of Summer. Or a Daffodil in full bloom standing strong in spite of the wind.
But some days the Blue of the ocean is my soul. Deep and mysterious with hidden caverns and a world of unseen treasures.
Or Green like the forest. Getting lost in overflowing thoughts that feel like vines of steel pulling me down, only to take a deep breath and seeing the absolute beauty of all that surrounds me.
Red is how I sometimes feel. Like a burning Chilli with fire in my belly. Ready to defend myself against those who want to cut through my flesh.
Orange is my fire. My passion. My dance. My art. My being. It fills my cup. It’s a place of wonder that is truly mine and mine alone.
On my favourite days I’m Purple. A Lotus Flower. My eyes open as the sun rises and I stretch towards the light knowing I have all I need. Gratitude and hope run through my veins and I feel blessed to breathe the air of the morning after feeling submerged in the thick darkness of the night before.
I’m like a Rainbow

What Happens To Your Brain When You Stop Multitasking
Digital technology is the culprit that is causing us to doom scroll when tired, disengaged and unmotivated with the content that motivated you to log onto your device to consume in the first place. That is only the beginning. In the modern workplace (and even when filing cabinets were around, I confirmed this with my adopted parents to get my facts right); reading files while you are supposed to be present to the caller on the other end of the phone line is another classic example of multitasking that causes your brain (although adaptable and intelligent) to lose focus and concentration.
