How do significant life events or the passage of time influence your perspective on life? At last something to get our teeth into! It really depends on the event, personal, national, international. International All violence impacts me hugely, as do terrorist attacks and natural disasters. One bit of ‘progress’ is that I find the attitudeContinueContinue reading “Excellent Question!”

Something on your “to-do list” that never gets done. I don’t have a ‘to do’ list because I’d lose it. If I don’t want to do it I won’t, so there’s no point in writing it down. If I do want to do it then either I won’t forget or I will put it onContinueContinue reading “Pointless Task!”

What’s your favorite thing to cook? Seriously, this is not a question for me. I eat to live. When I was about ten we saw a documentary about the American Astronauts and what they ate in space; three blocks of different nutrients three times a day. I asked if we could get those. Once IContinueContinue reading “Coffee”

Write about your first computer. The first home technology with a screen all it did was help you to write. That was it. And it was wonderful!!!! No more re-type the entire page, during which you made at least 14 more mistakes and filled a bin with ever more tightly scrunched paper. No, a deleteContinueContinue reading “A Word Processor”

What’s the thing you’re most scared to do? What would it take to get you to do it? It’s not so much about things I’m scared to do, and frankly I don’t want to do a lot of the things that scare me, like skiing. If it doesn’t scare me, I’ll pretty much just doContinueContinue reading “Scared of Fear”

What do you complain about the most? I try not to be a complainer, but I am deeply concerned about the state of this world and my own country, the UK. I used to be proud to be British. In my youth we were a decent and fair country, with problems yes, there would haveContinueContinue reading “The State of the World”

What are your favorite sports to watch and play? It’s not a game but it is fascinating I love seeing the truth reveal itself despite what a person is saying, or thinks they’re saying. We’re revealed by what we do and whether that matches our words. The interesting thing is, and it’s why I canContinueContinue reading “People Watching”

What would you do if you won the lottery? Purple for Auschwitz I originate from London, it’s the only place I feel at home. I learned this when I attended my mother’s funeral a mile from my first and second homes. It was sad to be happier that day than I had been for 30ContinueContinue reading “Move”

What books do you want to read? The reason I don’t visit libraries is that they induce a sense of panic. All those books? Will I choose the best ones? What if I miss the very best? I used to be able to get my immediate wish list down to about ten, but then IContinueContinue reading “All the Books”

Write about a few of your favorite family traditions. There never were, we weren’t that kind of family. Now there is no family. I do have a tradition of my own, my Christmas tree is basically a memory tree not just a decoration. Not much more I can say today except: Treasure your family, keepContinueContinue reading “There are None”
