Me

Who is the most confident person you know? I looked for an image implying confidence and apparently it mainly means underwear shots! Not my thing. However, my husband decided to wash my washing up gloves today and did this with them. I’ve had some hilarious captions on social media! When it comes to confidence IContinueContinue reading “Me”

Gentleness and Logic

What strategies do you use to cope with negative feelings? We all have negative feelings, and the first thing I ask people is always: What caused it? Then I give them paper and a pen and get them to write everything down. It can look dreadful when you see it all on paper, but ifContinueContinue reading “Gentleness and Logic”

Meditation

What activities do you lose yourself in? Except I wouldn’t do it outside and I haven’t sat cross legged since Methuselah was a baby. Not that I actually know who Methuselah was. I need to be warm and I’m too easily distracted not to shut myself away. I also hate the feeling of wind inContinueContinue reading “Meditation”

None

What movies or TV series have you watched more than 5 times? If there had been more of that in my family I would have spent more time with my brother Well not to the best of my recollection, however, in 68 years anything is possible. But then TV is not life and watching itContinueContinue reading “None”

Be the Peace the World Needs

It has never been so important that we, the public, become the voice of peace. Especially in the West, our societies are multicultural, which of course means there may be sympathies on both sides, which is a confusing feeling. Politicians are not handling it well in the UK, where Europe is clear that this isContinueContinue reading “Be the Peace the World Needs”

Temptress?

Are you superstitious? No, but I do have a black cat. Got to hedge your bets as we say. That’s my excuse and I’m sticking to it. 13 is a lucky number for me. I think I was a tax collector in a previous life. In the UK Friday 13th was considered unlucky in MedievalContinueContinue reading “Temptress?”

Several

Which animal would you compare yourself to and why? A Cow Because I think about things, ruminate a lot, and quite often find it takes time to digest life. A Meerkat Because I have the reputation that I will be moseying along, then suddenly something captures my attention. My head snaps up, I lean myContinueContinue reading “Several”

Wake up to Love

If you believe in love as a way of life, you will be even more baffled at this time in history that other people don’t. That they actually laugh. If the people who start wars believed in love, they wouldn’t happen. If world leaders believed in love then there would be no oppression. If everyoneContinueContinue reading “Wake up to Love”

Dear Me!

Write a letter to your 100-year-old self. There is a lot of truth in here What on earth were you thinking? Why did you accept so much unhappiness? Why didn’t you follow every dream, chase it down, tame it, and make the very best of it? I know, ‘the past’, what two words are moreContinueContinue reading “Dear Me!”
