Name the professional athletes you respect the most and why. I don’t particularly respect professional athletes. I appreciate their skills, am thrilled when they win, but that’s where it stops. I respect people who try to make a difference. Years ago our footballers were overpaid divas, arrested for driving big fat cars unnecessarily fast, andContinueContinue reading “Side Issue”

Meditation
How do you relax? Through meditation I relax when I’m not meditating without it I rarely relax. We take care of our bodies but forget the one thing crucial to the health of the body, the mind. Healthy mind, healthy body, healthy life. No man made input can heal and support the mind, it canContinueContinue reading “Meditation”
Just for You
To my fellow bloggers who seek to help, to entertain, to create change. Especially the many who write about peace, share helpful advice, reach out their hands across borders, across perceived barriers, to chat to people of different races, creeds, and cultures. Who share insights into other worlds, which is so important for connection. ThisContinueContinue reading “Just for You”
Clarence: The Return of the Say-Aye!
…Or you’ll be suspended from Parliament, thrown to the wolves, locked in the Tower of London below water level, and sent to the opposition benches if the parts of you left don’t drown! Aye equals yes the PM approves of me, Nay equals oh sh…dear…I shouldn’t have done that and the Whips are heading myContinueContinue reading “Clarence: The Return of the Say-Aye!”
Can I have two?
If you had to give up one word that you use regularly, what would it be? Dear God! I’d like to give them up because they come to mind when I’m looking at the levels of violence, cruelty, and indifference in this world. Humanity presents as a cess pit, even though there are many moreContinueContinue reading “Can I have two?”
Nope
Are you holding a grudge? About? Holding a grudge only hurts you. Indifference to those who have done so is key. Better to see them on the street, look puzzled, say “I know you from somewhere but I just can’t place you”. If they explain look even more puzzled and back off as if they’reContinueContinue reading “Nope”

I’d been through a very stressful time. Broken marriage, meetingContinueContinue reading “New Zealand”
Clarence: Oh Lord…
They’re Coming Back! Let the lying and insults begin. Don’t worry about us, we’ll keep on keeping on, making the best we can of the mess you make. The pensioners will take to their beds for the winter under five quilts if they can afford them. If not they can always buy a tent, putContinueContinue reading “Clarence: Oh Lord…”
Light and Welcoming
What does your ideal home look like? Not as fancy or big. It’s the light that attracts me. Long, low, not a straight line, U-shaped probably, with a conservatory in the U. Doors that slide right back in the summer. In truth it’s not the house it’s location and land. Quiet. Fairly isolated. Big gardenContinueContinue reading “Light and Welcoming”
Cats
What brings a tear of joy to your eye? Or laughter This is the most relaxed cat in the world. Nero came here to be a) in charge and b) spoiled. That was clear from day one. Miss Jo-Jo may have been an elderly lady of 18 when they arrived, but she put a completeContinueContinue reading “Cats”
