It’s good to keep busy.
It’s just as good to take a step back.

An A-Z of Somerset Villages
With everything else that has been going on in the world, it’s taken a while to get there, but here is the complete list of alphabetical Somerset villages posts. What started out in August 2020 as something of a lockdown photographic project, helping me explore parts of my new home county that I might normally bypass, became much more than just something to challenge my satnav.
Twenty six villages, each with their own individual personalities and traits. Each came into being in different ways, for different reasons, but each brings something different to the county, adding different stories to the county’s history.
(The previously mentioned disclaimers apply to the alphabetical journey. There are no villages in Somerset beginning with a J or a V, so K and W are doubled up. Zeals is technically not in Somerset, but is within a few hundred yards of the border, so I have taken the liberty of including it in the list, as there are no other places in the county starting with that letter.)

Perceptions
You don’t have to look your best all of the time.
Take a step back from how you think others perceive you.
Be yourself. Nobody should want anything else.
Snack
Don’t feel ashamed that you are easily tempted.
Acknowledge that you can be drawn on certain things, and move on.
Beginning
Everything has to start somewhere.
Where you begin, doesn’t put you behind everyone else.
Create your own opportunities.
Speck
We are but specks in the dust of the universe.
There is so much more out there than us.
But that seeming insignificance doesn’t make us any less important.
Off-Kilter
Sometimes the world seems just that bit off kilter.
Not everything adds up, something seems out of place, but you can’t quite put your finger on what?
Days can just be like that. Go with the flow, and things will return to normal again.
Space
Breathe in fresh air and feel it rejuvenate your soul.
Space is essential to our wellbeing, so take time to embrace the world around you.
Move
It doesn’t matter what the road ahead looks like.
You can move forward, or you can avoid it.
The choice is yours.
Opportunity
There is always hope.
There is always opportunity.
Sometimes, you just need to make both yourself.
