I believe that hobbies are indeed good in helping to take you outside of yourself and into the world of beauty, culture and need. There are so many ways in which we can contribute in society and study and work are not the only avenues. How many of us were inspired by our parents or older siblings whilst growing up? I well remember at 11 years old picking up my sister's new guitar and having a go. I managed to persuade her to teach me the basic chords and because I loved singing I naturally picked it up as I accompanied myself whilst singing my heart out.

Things are not always straight forward in society. You would think that it shouldn't make any difference who wears pink, that it's just the same for us all. Yet the reality in the western world is different. Many people associate this colour with negative ideas and feel that they are making the wrong kind of statement if they wear it. Funny how it was only a hundred years ago when pink was officially the colour for boys because it was a strong colour and blue was the more delicate colour for women.
