Thinking. 300 stories

I've been at a bit of a loss as to what to do with this blog recently, given that I haven't really been thinking too much. There's only so much you can write about cleaning up the house, doing the washing and feeding the baby. 

And then I got inspired by this magazine. It tells five people's stories in each issue, with beautiful photography to accompany them. 

"I'd love to write that kind of thing," I thought to myself.

And then I realised. I have at least 300 friends on facebook, each with their own story.

My friends are, for the most part, diverse, creative and pretty well-travelled. They are thoughtful, hopeful and wise. It would be wonderful for me, personally, to get to know them better. And it would be great to share their stories with others.

So, I'm going to make it my aim to post one story a week. Something that will inspire, entertain, encourage or inform us all.   

Who'd like to be my first subject? Don't think you'll escape this either... Even if I don't get to you first up, you'll have to 'unfriend' me to miss your chance to tell your story.
