Guide 4 Thinkers
This blog was inspired by an excellent blog on here by Guide4Thinkers (@guidethinkers975). It engaged my mind on the subjects of what I call the myths we’re raised with. Things made to feel important but that in fact don’t exist, even though it feels very much that they do. Even though what I’m about toContinueContinue reading “Guide 4 Thinkers”
Double Edged Swords
Today’s writing prompt, or one three years ago depending on when you’re reading this, inspired me to think about the ways that we humans are so unaware of our impact. How we look at things only one way, when there is at least one more way they can be viewed. How our word comes fromContinueContinue reading “Double Edged Swords”

Who share insights into other worlds, which is so important for connection. ThisContinueContinue reading “Just for You”
The Social Media Myth
I’ve been on social media for over a decade, maybe nearer 2 decades. I used to enjoy it, it was a place to connect with others, meet new people, I honestly thought that I would make new friends that I could meet. I have had some luck with that. I initially joined to connect withContinueContinue reading “The Social Media Myth”
I Am So Proud
I’m also very upset! Yesterday the UK was braced for about 30 marches by the racist people who have behaved appallingly. Instead we had a large number of much bigger marches, thousands of people turned out to call for peace, respect, and inclusion. This is Britain! I’m very upset because I’m obviously not connected toContinueContinue reading “I Am So Proud”
A Word to the Rioters
So you’re a far right radical? You believe. You know you’re right. You’re out on the streets making your point. Have you worked out yet how many millions think you’re wrong? The numbers are enormous. Maybe we should be out on the streets too, counter-protesting, but we understand the costs of that, the potential forContinueContinue reading “A Word to the Rioters”

Nowadays of course you may be being misled on social media. Other countries posting false information to destabilise societies. Interest groups posting fake news to make theirContinueContinue reading “Clear Vision”
