‘rollercoaster week’
Friday 26th July
Its been a hard week – almost finished – sitting here with tea after sleeping the night through for the first time in a week – in the mists of memory – easier the further back you go – delving into the past plucking fossils
and on the radio they are talking about. . . . .
remember 2012?
so its a year since?
the sports legacy – I think far to early to use that word – where does legacy ‘start’ and ‘effect’ finish? Legacy is the encouraged creative 7 year old who interacted in school with a Cultural Olympiad project with artists and leaves school for a future as the artist they were always meant to be?
there was never that opportunity for me at school which is why I actively took part – politics of the Olympics and sponsors aside – and worked in schools to encourage what I never had the chance to believe in – myself – one child even said to me during a ‘Flag’ day’ they didn’t know dyslexic adults existed? she was waiting to leave school for it to stop?
I know that the Cultural Olympiad also changed my life….I regained the promise to myself aged 6 – I will be an artist…
and also on the radio they are talking about scientists implanting false memory in mice
so what do you remember?
