We do not inherit the earth from our ancestors, we borrow it from our children.
Kev I have no idea who came up with this good thought. I am not sure where I first heard this thought on life.I think Doug has found it's origins. My older sister who is twelve years older than me went to school with Quakers and maybe I heard it from her. A friend of mine was brought up in the United States Amish but he left it when he became a man Imight have got the saying  from him.

Peatle .... I like your drawings!  You talked about the drawings on the wall and what they meant, what about the bottom one on the wall, you didn`t talk about that one?  Great to see you join in and a Merry Christmas to you too.

Thank you and Merry Christmas, Jandle the third picture at the bottom represents imagination it is a horse with wings, flying through outer space.

Kaua e mate wheke mate ururoa
Don't die like a octopus, die like a hammerhead shark
Octopus are renown for their lack of resistance when being captured, however a hammerhead shark will fight bitterly to the end, to the point that when you fillet it fresh, its meat quivers. Commonly used to encourage someone not to give up, no matter how hard the struggle is.

Neo I enjoyed the article. I have always found Australia's Flora and Fauna to be fascinating.  The other thing that interested me was how Indigenous Australians lived with nature before  colonization by new settlers and introduced species.

Here is me trying a Irvine Berlin Christmas  tune with Robert Anonymous on Guitar and my not so good vocals.

A good  Christmas song you wrote EB. I also like the photo of the Pohutukawa tree in flower with your song.  For those who don't know what a  Pohutukawa trees is. The Pohutukawa tree with its crimson flower has become an established part of the New Zealand Christmas tradition. It only flowers on or around Christmas and New Years.

Thank you Neo I like the idea of people drawing cartoons to tell every day stories. The thing is is with cartoons you don't have to be a great artist. It  also can be another way of doodling.

TIG I like the way  your song  reveals hard times are good in their own way.. For  me as I see life, the only way most people  achieve true happiness is after they have experienced true sadness. You are a very talented songwriter.

This is my way of making a cartoon of a  office Christmas party. I tried to make it look like an exaggerated snap shot of three people at a party by doing a  simple pen drawing.

Thank you Tig I should thank  Irving Berlin for the tune. My guitarist who wants to  be called Robert Anonymous for his playing.
"White Christmas" is a 1942 Irving Berlin song reminiscing about an old-fashioned Christmas setting. The version sung by Bing Crosby is the world's best-selling single with estimated sales in excess of 100 million copies worldwide. Other versions of the song, along with Crosby's, have sold over 150 million copies. Here is me with my version with  the  lyrics Guitar Christmas selling no copies  worldwide.
