building sandcastles is a youthwork skill l have perfected



I hope there is something childish in each of us
when an option to play in the woods,or build sandcastles,maybe swim,create a raft, present themselves.
With gustier embrace these options as often as one can.



The best and biggest skills a youth worker can hold are the ones that enable us to Building sandcastle,This is a skill l have perfected.
Such skills allow for opening out,walking and talking.

As l prepare the talks for the residential,
the multitude of plans will be come clear,
ideas and breaker games, words l want to share, will all become clear.
the group sessions will be first in my head

Then on paper,
finally youthgroup will put own thoughts, ideas, words, into the session time.
But the skill of hearing a non verbal with whole of my body
is the skill God willing l will practice the most.

MAYBE WE WON`T MEET AGAIN

. . . she got a postcard in the mail
That just said Heaven,with a picture of the ocean and the beach
The simple words he wrote her
Said he loved her
How he'd hold her if his arms would reach
Wish you were here, wish you could see this place
Wish you were near,Wish I could touch your face
The weather's nice, it's paradise
It's summertime all year and there's some folks we know
They say, "Hello, "
I miss you so, wish you were here"
