I love bricks

    I hadn't realised what a wealth of experience and emotion there are on the bricks, not being a great brick creator myself. I would just like to say that I am overwhelmed and could browse and comment forever.

    yes!  I couldn't agree more, younger.  Whereas once I could sit quietly and the tap away, and the kids would come and make sure I was not doing something fun and wander off - now I find they too stand there and look at the brick slide show too!  Well I never saw this bit coming - I will have to find a very dark little corner to hide in so they can't stand behind me!

    Oh yes, I was interested in joining in the first place because, when I heard that interview on Australia's ABC (which UM heard as well, I remember.) the woman talked about the bricks, that people could make their own pictures, words etc. I do write too, (Younger, you may have noticed that.) I wanted to give the brick making a try - see if I could use the tools etc. I fear one day I may have to rely on voice guided programmes, which would also mean I have lost so much sight I would not be able to draw, photograph things, use the computer's drawing programmes, paint - nothing but words (Oh, I like using words - primarily I write. I have also enjoyed art, a close second. There had always been three things for me, singing (that's gone pretty much) visual art (hmmm, how long? with limits now) and writing (one day I will learn Braille for sure and properly and hopefully I will learn to navigate the screen and still be able to write vie computer keyboard too. The writing I expect will outlast the others.... these are #1, #2 and #3 for me. Haven't always been in the same order. The singing side of music has had to drop back, very unhappily so - because it frustrates me now not to be able to sing what I wanted with at least some ease and comfort and reliability. If we had sound here as well, I would try to use it, for speech. I very much want to Talk - at the very least half as much as I am able to communicate via text; at best, as well if not better. I want to record what I write, express it how it feel it....I've found it extremely difficult though...practice as I will.

    I ramble, ramble today. Piano in the background....:) another brick to make. (a couple already on the drawing board, not finished yet and I want to start another...)

    You are most welcome to visit mine anytime, Younger. It will be great to see you around here more often!

    100% with you there - I love the slideshow, it opens up so much more for me, because I used to struggle to find bricks, look at them - now I can just click in and join someone's train of thought - I simply do love it!  Thank you, Big White Wall Team!
