Odd but True
What was the best compliment you’ve received? I’ve been complimented on my writing.

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”
Depends on the Country
You’re going on a cross-country trip. Airplane, train, bus, car, or bike? In the UK car. In Australia aeroplane. In America a mixture of the two or an RV.

That’s where the line in the poem ‘I Am’ comes from: “I tense up calming down.” I guess meditation shows you the underlying tension you carry. It’s wonderful when you can relaxContinueContinue reading “Badminton Plus”
The Wedding Date
What movies or TV series have you watched more than 5 times? All of you I’m not sure it’s five times but it’s definitely my stand alone most watched movie. Dermot Mulroney is a very fine actor, and Debra Messing irritated the heck out of me for a lot of the movie in a wayContinueContinue reading “The Wedding Date”

This can widen out to picking up from the air itself, but psychometry itself is information through touch. The unexpected story of the stones I didn’t know that IContinueContinue reading “Not Woo Woo – You You (2)”
