looking up

we talked a while ago about things that we were trying to achieve, objectives that we were hoping for.
one of mine was to stop being so anti-social and to engage more with people in and around where we live.

and then a couple of meals back we read a list of things you can do to improve your neighbourhood [we'd found it on the net one time] - one of the things was to lift your head and look up.
i've been doing that and it works.
in the past few weeks i've met three or four folk who live round our way and spoken with them properly for the first time [one of 'em is a bloke from over the road who joe hit with a football in the playground - he was very nice about it!]

it's all about intent i guess, and it's good that we're accountable to each other - it's good to know that i've committed to do this, and that i can celebrate my successes - however small - with you lot...
