I’ve ventured back into the social media sphere this week and here’s my eclectic mix of articles ‘n stuff that I found of interest.

A nice wrap of my generation in – Generation X’s journey from jaded to sated.

The question of being “nice” was on my mind again after Lisa Lintern wrote about it here which reminded me about the time I blogged about it here. Then Jane Caro had her say about the importance of being brave over nice and finally this piece suggested you could be powerful, likeable and female. I still fear that nice girls do end up last though!

This poignant piece on always go to the funeral brought a tear to my eye.

While Reservoir Dad’s account of a recent bike ride with his kids made me smile.
