Do popular sayings ever make you feel less? Or perhaps you’ve lived by some of them and found no evidence to support their truth? Me too. Popular sayings can seem impactful - and they can be, when taken in context. But the context rarely, if ever, explained. Worse, many of us are conditioned to accept societal ’truths’ without careful consideration of their appropriateness in our individual lives. Instead of deciding for ourselves, we’re bombarded with external gurus trying to sell us their truth.

Nibblets: Verbal snapshots on life, offers a slightly different take on motivational and philosophical sayings. These snippets of life aim to prompt thought and promote a more balanced and healthy view of the words we take on as absolute - and shouldn’t.

This is a collection of photographs and sayings from my life. I encourage you to still the chaos that swirls around. Be still and silent and breathe. Connect with your own intuition. Perhaps my truths resonate with you, perhaps not. Use what works for you and leave what doesn’t. In essence, become your own guru.
