Shining brightly

I have a new idea.

it hangs there glimmering like the baubles on the tree. I'm too far away yet to tell whether it's one of the real beautiful expensive kinds or one of the Styrofoam ones my kids made at kindy that are covered in a smattering of glitter and a hodge podge of texta swirls that are supposed to be their name.

For the moment I think I'll stay over here because I don't want to know yet whether it's truly sparkly.

I'm living in the hope it is but that might fall over under closer examination.

How do you know when an idea is as good as it seems from afar? Is getting real close - like writing it close - the only way?

  1. LOVE the analogy. AND, like ALL your ideas, I'm sure it's fabulous!!

    I just usually dive right in and only realise it's not so fabulous when I'm halfway through. Whoops!
