Well hello fellow readers (if there are any of you left).
I can only apologise for my lack of correspondence. Life has been busy.
I hope that you're enjoying the snow. In spite of the negative impacts it has had, I actually love it!! It's so beautiful! I shall be sad to see it melt, It reminds me of the story 'The Snowman'.
The young boy makes an amazing new friend and enjoys the time he has with him, yet un beknown to him, the friendship will be short lived. I feel that this happens all too often in our lives- we meet 'snowmen (or women)'. After a short while of awesomeness we are left with nothing but the vague memories of the time that once was.
*sigh* Maybe I should invest in a deep freezer?

The Boy and the Starfish
A man was walking along a deserted beach at sunset. As he walked he could see a young boy in the distance, as he drew nearer he noticed that the boy kept bending down, picking something up and throwing it into the water. Time and again he kept hurling things into the ocean.
As the man approached even closer, he was able to see that the boy was picking up starfish that had been washed up on the beach and, one at a time he was throwing them back into the water.
The man asked the boy what he was doing, the boy replied,"I am throwing these washed up starfish back into the ocean, or else they will die through lack of oxygen. "But", said the man, "You can't possibly save them all, there are thousands on this beach, and this must be happening on hundreds of beaches along the coast. You can't possibly make a difference." The boy smiled, bent down and picked up another starfish, and as he threw it back into the sea, he replied.
"I made a difference to that one!"

@durham.ac.uk
Has officially ended. :(
I have access to such e-mails no more. This means that I have actually left Durham University. It's a sad day.
