How often do you say “no” to things that would interfere with your goals? I used to have goals, then I lost the muse and the feeling of being compelled to write with it. It was a significant loss of the self. Through that I learned how important support and encouragement are, how vital beingContinueContinue reading “I Have No Goals”

Not Interesting or Interested
What’s a secret skill or ability you have or wish you had? Odd I know, but I’d more prefer to be the person I could have been were it not for a challenging past. I have always felt that there was an alter-ego inside me that was more who I actually am. Taking away allContinueContinue reading “Not Interesting or Interested”
Two Strains of Humanity
The divide between war and peace I had this made up by AI, and it really resonates with me, the beautiful, peaceful, natural way you can live, versus the inexplicable need to establish your dominance in some way. Strength or weakness? People who embrace war, violence, or physical crimes against the person, often see itContinueContinue reading “Two Strains of Humanity”
Whether There’s Weather or Not
What is your favorite type of weather? A natural storm Weather is fine, it’s natural, what is not natural is the current climate in this world. It is not my favourite, it is the worst it’s been in my life. A climate of hate It’s unbelievable how much hate there is in this world, mainlyContinueContinue reading “Whether There’s Weather or Not”
Old History
Who was your most influential teacher? Why? I’ve mentioned Dr Iftikhar Malik from Bath Spa University many times. The most incredible human being I’ve ever met. He changed me for life with his humility, love of the UK, open-mindedness, knowledge of world events, and love of what he did. I wanted to work alongside himContinueContinue reading “Old History”
Laugh
What do you wish you could do more every day? I would give anything for a good laugh. Laughter used to be my default setting. Not for a long time though. You can’t buy the things that matter. Pop down to a shop and choose one designer dress and a bag of giggles. The imageContinueContinue reading “Laugh”
None and Nowhere
What tattoo do you want and where would you put it? I can see the beauty but it’s not for me. For one thing I get bored then need a change, and although tattoos can be updated I’d probably want something completely different. I don’t imagine that’s easy to do. But ink in my skin?ContinueContinue reading “None and Nowhere”
Bored
What is one word that describes you? With war; racism; social medial trolls; gender bashing; calling those that care naive. Bored and flabbergasted that we have to defend decency and reason. Bored and stunned that after two world wars, the potential for a third is even a thing. Baffled that countries expect us to admireContinueContinue reading “Bored”
You Have to Smile
What was the best compliment you’ve received? My dad was everything to my mum. She absolutely adored him. So when she told me that I was everything my father was, that was a stratospheric level of compliment. Until she said: “And it’s done you as much good as it did him hasn’t it?” Courage andContinueContinue reading “You Have to Smile”
Car
You’re going on a cross-country trip. Airplane, train, bus, car, or bike? In the UK a cross-country trip won’t take that long. Frankly I’d rather do Europe or Continental America, both would lead to more fascinating trips. In Europe you can just keep going and see all kinds of different scenery, cities, meet a wideContinueContinue reading “Car”
