When it comes to living a collective life, the fewer people who stubbornly believe they’re right the better off we will be. Radicals are people who have attached to an idea because it makes sense to them, without ever asking others if it makes sense.

Clarence: An odd reaction
Obviously I’ve been watching the fallout after the terrible atrocity in Southport. It’s been horrific hasn’t it?! You can’t quite take it in, not in the UK. At first I was very depressed and very angry, I’m sure you know that feeling. Such a disgusting reaction to an awful tragedy. But of course that’s justContinueContinue reading “Clarence: An odd reaction”

D-Day 2024
Love and respect for all At a time when the world is watching to see what happens next. How does the current world situation make any sense? We have the lessons of history. There is a massive war.

If social media hasn’t taught us that the worst problem inContinueContinue reading “No Opinion”

Spirit have a way of saying something that’s so simple it seems obvious, “well I knew that!” Yet when you learn to stop and think it has a wealth of deeper meaning, For example How many people believe in world peace andContinueContinue reading “What isn’t said…”
Oldness
Oldness is a natural state of life if you’re lucky. Getting old is optional. The trouble is that the world keeps telling you you’re old rather than celebrating that. You get treated like an old banger rather than the shiny new cars that adorn the driveways of the youthful and allegedly vibrant. Those old bangersContinueContinue reading “Oldness”
