OH CLICHE

Life sometimes feel like a cliche:
over-used
repetitive
predictable
lacking flair.
This can be exaggerated by:
depression
fatigue
anxiety
a loss of hope.
But even though cliches are all too familiar, over-used,
this very fact means that when we use them to express how we feel,
others immediately recognise the emotion and empathsise:
stories are shared
wisdom offered
remedies recommended
relationship established.
Our humanity and our common unity are dignified.
This doll was originally made to celebrate my 51st birthday. I offer it here for your delight and/or commiseration. They are for sale at $NZ30 plus postage and packaging.
