I love simplicity and silence. On this blog I share bits and pieces from my daily life. In late 2025 I moved to Ruakākā near Whangārei in Aotearoa. 100% human (she / her). Since July 2024 I've been doing resistance training to help me maintain my independence as I age. Now 71, I'm super happy to be getting old — it means I'm not dead yet! I believe all beings have the right to clean water, nutritious food and adequate shelter, and that humans are simply one small part of the amazing life on this planet that supports us all: humans, animals, plants. I joined the MB community on 05 January 2018. Follow me on Micro.Blog at https://micro.blog/miraz .
I was looking (without success) for something today when I came across this ancient dark and almost unreadable copy of the notification that in January 1941 my father became a war prisoner of the Japanese.
Cpl Jordan L. D. Of the Royal Norfolk Regiment is now at No. 1 Prisoner of War Camp, Thailand, in Japanese hands.
