I’ve had several ideas for posts to kick off the new year but nothing seemed quite right until I saw this story on the BBC app:

I share this because I thought it was fascinating and I hope you do too.
There is something really encouraging about taking an everyday object that is disregarded and even despised and turning it into a work of art.
Sneaky Japanese!
And just at the end, we learn that they’ve been doing this for 40 years.
How come nobody else has cottoned on?
It’s a lesson to all of us.
Perhaps we too could take our everyday lives and turn them into works of art in this year of 2018….
Have a great year!
And may your life never become an endurance test!
Love
Richard
