Are you patriotic? What does being patriotic mean to you? At one point I would have said that the pulse of Britain beat through my veins. No longer. The country is much changed and there isn’t such a sense of Britishness anymore. Immigration is much needed here, and generally our society works well. No matterContinueContinue reading “I Used to Be”

Greased Lightening (not)
Have you ever unintentionally broken the law? I’m not a speed merchant, but anyone can have a momentary lapse of concentration. Plus where I live we have a highway where there’s a steep hill that you have to apply a lot of power to climb, then as you go over the top it drops awayContinueContinue reading “Greased Lightening (not)”
Birth of a Dancing Star
If there were a biography about you, what would the title be? One must have chaos in oneselfto give birth to a dancing starNietzsche I love this saying, it made me feel that my past was worthwhile. However, I do disagree with the word ‘must’. It’s wonderful if you can use chaos as fuel forContinueContinue reading “Birth of a Dancing Star”
Loving the Retired Life
What were your parents doing at your age? Except not like this. My father had vascular dementia and my mother’s golden years were given over to taking care of him. It was hard, but also amusing at times. My dad desperately wanted to move back to the south coast of the UK, he loved theContinueContinue reading “Loving the Retired Life”
Needs
The meme that launched a thousand ideas. Okay four. We have to be the person that attracts the life and people we want to attract.
It’s Not Me it’s You…or Me
Another Rebel Mentor post trying to simplify inspiration and get down to the basics. This one on self-blame.
I Would Make a Law
If you had the power to change one law, what would it be and why? That the rich, large corporations, energy suppliers, etc., stop crucifying the general public. If I had my way I would turn the UK government into a business. I would nationalise everything critical to wellbeing such as water, power, transport, food,ContinueContinue reading “I Would Make a Law”
Love or Fear?
Yes it’s an old chestnut, embrace love, skip through fields of flowers in the sunshine with a kicky sun hat on and a wicker basket on your arm. Although, quite frankly not prioritising feelings of love, doing things you love, loving how you feel, loving what you do, is categorically insane – unless life isn’tContinueContinue reading “Love or Fear?”
Somewhere I’m Happy
Write about your dream home. Cosy That’s it really. It’s not about size, stuff, position, cost. It’s whether your home is a home or a house. Whether it hugs you. Whether you relax when you walk through the door. My happiest home was condemned, the floorboards were rotten, we had almost nothing, but I wasContinueContinue reading “Somewhere I’m Happy”
Uninspired
You get some great, amazingly fantastic news. What’s the first thing you do? Normally I can find some inspiration for any question, but this one landed with the thud of a dead wet fish. Nothing! Nada! Zilch! However, at least trying to reflect on it; I think it depends very much on the nature ofContinueContinue reading “Uninspired”
