Write a letter to your 100-year-old self. There is a lot of truth in here What on earth were you thinking? Why did you accept so much unhappiness? Why didn’t you follow every dream, chase it down, tame it, and make the very best of it? I know, ‘the past’, what two words are moreContinueContinue reading “Dear Me!”

Rethink
Where would you go on a shopping spree? New York – No No I’ve always wanted to go to New York on a shopping spree, but not now. I can’t support the actions of their President. It is the right of every country to live as they wish, and the duty of the people toContinueContinue reading “Rethink”
Old News
What is your middle name? Does it carry any special meaning/significance? My middle name is Ann and I’ve told the story before that my dad wanted to call me Ann, mum didn’t like it because I’d be called Annie, so my aunt stepped in and suggested Debra. Neither name is really right. I’m happy withContinueContinue reading “Old News”
Don’t Trust America
What is the last thing you learned? However, let’s not go there. No point when the lunatic has taken over the asylum. It’s a huge tantrum just because someone wouldn’t give him the Nobel Peace Prize. Or this one. Hey ho. In many ways those cartoons sums up this world rather nicely. Give us aContinueContinue reading “Don’t Trust America”

About Trump’s War
What is one question you hate to be asked? Explain. When you believe that it’s possible for the world to live in peace you are often laughed at, eyes are rolled, naive is mentioned, and people explain patiently why you don’t understand reality. No I don’t understand their reality. Nor do I want to. It’sContinueContinue reading “About Trump’s War”
Overcoming my Upbringing
How has a failure, or apparent failure, set you up for later success? That’s it really. Becoming a nicer person by choice. Although I will admit the current world situation is challenging my hold on decency and non-violence. Can anyone please explain to me why people think killing is okay? Especially when the Bible isContinueContinue reading “Overcoming my Upbringing”
Silence
You’re writing your autobiography. What’s your opening sentence? That’s a good question about my life I came here to be happy. There you go. Amorah – Deb
My Fellow Writers
What are three objects you couldn’t live without? That’s not three objects, and it’s way more than three writers. I hope. As you may have noticed, my blogs since the war broke out probably need their own category called ‘outrage and disbelief’. If you haven’t read “I believe in choices” because I posted it veryContinueContinue reading “My Fellow Writers”
Woke and Sensible
So, there’s a possibility that we are facing WWIII. I’m not going into dramatic language about that, it’s bad enough without adding to it. Are we so sure now that the Woke, who preach peace, respect, and inclusion, are the idiots in this world? Some will say yes because we’re unrealistic, stupid enough to thinkContinueContinue reading “Woke and Sensible”
