What do you do to be involved in the community?
The Covid lockdowns were a huge plus for me, of people hasn’t been ill and died I would have described them as one of my best times. Obviously I can’t do that because I also cannot forget the terrible losses.
It was during those lockdowns I realised that I’m mainly a recluse. I love being indoors and quiet. I always thought I didn’t like driving, turns out I don’t particularly like going out.
I did when I was younger but I was very unhappy at home, now I’m not. Give me my cats, a book, water, coffee, and a bit of chocolate and I’m quite happy in my own world.
As an empath, that makes sense The new spiritual teachings that came through last night made it make even more sense.
I’m more global
My writing has always been what I do. Only the book has a cost, the hundreds of blogs and poems are all free. Just trying to reach anyone I can with a bit of help and support, via the ideas that helped me fashion my own mind.
When I was young my ex told me I should be reading the local news, I told him that I was interested in world news.
Local politics drove me nuts. When I walked away my mentor said they made a huge mistake with me, they should never have put me on the Town Council but got me to county as fast as possible, and then Prospective Parliamentary Candidate.
I’m just wired this way I don’t know why, it’s just me.
It’s important to know where you fit best in life and go for that.
I was embarrassed about where I fitted best, I also came in for a lot of undermining by those who saw me as a threat. That kind of thing just bores me. You’re there to help or you’re not. You’re not important.
It all worked out though
In a fight between the world leader and the recluse, the recluse won. Fortunately, the writer is perfect for being a recluse, so in the attempt to support those that I can in any way that I can, it’s all good.
Leading – if we must use that word – from behind via support, is my favourite way of gently encouraging people onto their own feet, and helping them walk their path their own way.
Local no, global yes!
Upfront no, quietly there yes!

P.S. Every local group I ever joined fought between themselves, especially the politicians.
