The first step....

One day you wake up and everything's the same except you. You still love the same people, you still have the same things except you've woken up. Finally, you've put the star shaped peg in a star shaped hole and you realise if YOU don't do something you'll just burst.

This happened to me....

I've always imagined spiritual awakenings to come on a golden chariot led by a herd of white horses after standing on one leg and fasting for forty days, but not mine. I was parping around, picking things off the floor, thinking about the usual trash that scoots round our brains: food shopping; my social diary and how did that black mark get on the carpet, when a voice came from nowhere. A deep voice said, "The tribes must regroup".

As if I'd been hit in the chest with a concrete block I stood stunned. Wondering what it was and what it meant I couldn't move for the chills still spilling up and down my spine. The voice was so loud, so undisputable that it woke me out of a 36 year sleep. I couldn't work out what the message meant, just that I needed to go/do and find out what I've been missing..

Back then I was living with my young son as a single parent, a small number of key events have led me onto training for my life long ambition as a Journalist -Kate Adie will need an apprentice one day. A love for nature, the planet and mankind has led me onto becoming .... well wait and see, the story's still unfolding.
