I’m a thousand years older than you
I’ve often wondered if you knew
Though I don’t remember old Spain
Or the Conqueror’s reign
Or the Battle of Waterloo
I feel like your great-great-grandmother
Or your mum at the best of times
And it comes a good day
When I really can’t say
That you feel like a child of mine
You think you know better than me
But I’ve seen the distress in your life
And you might think it’s great
But it’s in such a sad state
That you are your trouble and strife.
I can’t say that I know more than you
Or I really know what’s going wrong
But I have the good sense
To know that pretence
Is no way to keep staggering on

I'm a writer, public speaker, medium, and spiritual thinker. I suffered from acute anxiety from the age of 16 until I was well into my 50s, when I finally found methods that helped me to put it behind me. My struggles led to me exploring life through poetry, then plays, and over a 15 year period I made notes for a self help book which I published in 2015. Details on the book page. Although I am a psychic medium and loved the work, it didn’t feel right for me. It was an utter privilege, but my path was the exploration of what it means to be spirit in the real world and how we can make practical use of those abilities. Nowadays I write, blog, and teach soul-centred living, which is a gentle way of undoing past programming and connecting to your essential self, or soul. If you’re interested email me and we can chat. No pressure, it’s right for you or it’s not and you will know. The groups meet on line so no going out on cold, wet, winter’s evenings. On a personal note, I’m based in the UK. Married with five cats, no children, and four grandchildren, thanks to our inherited daughter, who has gifted us four beautiful little people that bring us such joy. Hope you enjoy the blogs. Deb xx
