Connie

I am Constance Singam who at 71 is still learning. But then I was a late developer which meant I have extended experiences and learning to much later in life than most people.

For instance, I got married, like most women by the time I turned 24, settled to a traditional married life, became a widow at the age of 42 , obtained my first degree at age 46 (BA hons in Lit), MA at age 60, stopped fulltime work at 67.

I have been a writer, a social activist, teacher, restauranter and now I am a blogger.

Life has been unpredictable – sometimes sad, most times happy but always challenging, like most people’s lives.

Happily I have been surrounded by the love and generosity of family, friends and many good and generous people. I love life. I love people. I love literature. I love music. I love ideas. I keep learning.
