Citizen of the World

What’s a topic or issue about which you’ve changed your mind? My structure to the meaning of my nationality has changed. This has nothing to do with The UK being being multi racial, and I feel that many people the world over will relate to this. The change relates directly to spiritual living. For aContinueContinue reading “Citizen of the World”

Tell Me Your Psyche’s Song

Photo by Jill Wellington on Pexels.com I wrote this poem whilst observing the very public break-up of a couple who had generated such hope for the future. The woman appeared to becoming progressively more lonely, isolated, and eventually lost. I felt for her. I just wanted to understand how she might be feeling.

Happiness and Badminton

What skill would you like to learn? So far. I’m always open to new learning and that’s one skill I’m glad I have at a mature age. Broad brushstroke? Happiness sounds a bit like that doesn’t it? A major, undefined, maybe unrealistic catch-all. It isn’t. It’s the single most important word in the English language,ContinueContinue reading “Happiness and Badminton”

Looking on the bright side of life attracts you to those things. We’re not made to live in the darkness of a troubled mind, unfortunately that’s what our society focuses on.ContinueContinue reading “Happy Things”

Reclaiming My Life

What’s your #1 priority tomorrow? Life can become all about others, a place where you fit in where you can, wherever you can, but don’t seem to appear very often. This isn’t good for you, it isn’t good for those around you, and it definitely isn’t good for the younger generation. Be careful what youContinueContinue reading “Reclaiming My Life”

Deciduous Waltz

Photo by Dasha on Pexels.com This is one of my favourite poems. It was written at Bath Spa University whilst doing the Creative English degree that I then abandoned for History, on the advice of my tutor who said that these degrees were for people trying to write, not those who could write. In theContinueContinue reading “Deciduous Waltz”
