Describe something you learned in high school. I’ve said before that a teacher told my parents that she told the class jokes because she noticed that we recalled what made us laugh. I thought that was pure genius. Enjoying learning, who’d a thought it?! I don’t recall learning anything else that stands out in particular,ContinueContinue reading “Humour Sticks”

Mindset
Describe one positive change you have made in your life. Light thinking “I think therefore I am” is one of the truest truths that exist in this world. Every thought you think creates your life. Your thoughts are your only reality. If you think you’re poor because the rich hold you back, then you’re right,ContinueContinue reading “Mindset”
No Opinion
The most important words after I love We know way too much in this world. Opinion masquerades as truth far too often, and now the know-all-Nazis have bloomed on social media, sensible and even knowledgeable people dare not have an opinion. Many have left. If social media hasn’t taught us that the worst problem inContinueContinue reading “No Opinion”
Badminton Plus
What’s the most fun way to exercise? Amalfi Drive Sorry, same old chestnut, but it’s the only exercise for exercise’s sake I really enjoy. Years ago I used to love my holidays, the towns in the UK were so different and unique that every step revealed something new. We walked miles on holidays. Having beenContinueContinue reading “Badminton Plus”
What Is Going on?
I have never in my life been a conspiracy theorist. It isn’t that I don’t believe in conspiracies, I do, but I don’t have the knowledge to have a theory, and I prefer facts anyway. Theories are often driven by beliefs, and they don’t become a true truth because we believe them. They only becomeContinueContinue reading “What Is Going on?”

No One
If you could be a character from a book or film, who would you be? Why? This is me! I thought about Captain Kirk or Picard but no. I thought about the female lead in the Wedding Date, but then she was very messed up. I couldn’t think of anyone else. I’ve never wished IContinueContinue reading “No One”
Depends on the Humans
What animals make the best/worst pets? Humans! I don’t like judging one species against another. Each to their own and all animals have their good points and not so good. The important thing to remember is that they are animals and have no clue about furniture, money, or the difference between a scratching post, aContinueContinue reading “Depends on the Humans”
