Your brick story

I remember the time that this photo was taken. I was being uncooperative - I didn't want to be in the photo and I wasn't allowed to stand next to my brother because he was up the back and I didn't want to be with the others.

And it was with this mind set I started off in life - and this was before I somehow got separated from myself in the next town we lived in.

    Why do all the children have their arms crossed? I guess you were not being uncooperative - you just knew your own mind - that always places us a little outside. Welcome to the wilderness sister. Rxx

    this was the way in the 60's - kids folded their arms - I guess it stopped them fidgeting in photos. I have so many photos taken at school - primary school when arms were crossed. In high school they were on our laps hand in hand, with one foot - the right slightly forward - all shitty isn't it.

    Yep - it is ridiculous how we are taught to shut down and conform - rather than express our own individuality, r x
