Photo by fauxels on Pexels.com I know I’m not alone in thinking that someone needs to do something about the state of our world and societies. If you look at the behaviour of world leaders, governments, and rather too many ordinary people, you cannot fail to see that this world is deteriorating and they areContinueContinue reading “A plea for the future”

A Song for All Democracies
Tonight I was watching probably the most uninspiring Last Night of the Proms I’ve seen. There were some wonderful songs and acts, the best of which was Bohemian Rhapsody. But the energy just wasn’t there. Something was just off compared to Proms of the past. It got me thinking though. Land of Hope and GloryContinueContinue reading “A Song for All Democracies”

Unkindness and Violence
I don’t understand unkindness and violence, I never have. Since I was a child I’ve stood back baffled by the behaviour of others. If we moved to a place of love we could change the world.
The Equality of War and Insults
They are for the weak This image doesn’t even begin to demonstrate the longevity of the problem. Humans wage war and humans insult. We’re in the 21st Century and social media has clearly demonstrated that as a race we have barely advanced. Technological complications Yes we laud our technology, the fancy stuff we can build,ContinueContinue reading “The Equality of War and Insults”
Balance
Nature is about harmony and balance. Left to itself nature would thrive, natural predators would ensure balance, the air would be cleaner, the waters purer and with less plastic. The planet would be cooler. We are not. Imbalance We are not only bad for the planet, we are bad for each other, and appalling forContinueContinue reading “Balance”

Just for You
To my fellow bloggers who seek to help, to entertain, to create change. Especially the many who write about peace, share helpful advice, reach out their hands across borders, across perceived barriers, to chat to people of different races, creeds, and cultures. Who share insights into other worlds, which is so important for connection. ThisContinueContinue reading “Just for You”
Heartbreak
The light never dims At the moment it feels like it though. This is a long read. For those outside the UK who may not know. We have had the most terrible tragedy. On Monday a beautiful group of little girls were having a fun day learning to dance to Taylor Swift music. A boy,ContinueContinue reading “Heartbreak”
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. Someone wins. Twenty years later we’re all trading together again as if nothing happened. Why can’t weContinueContinue reading “D-Day 2024”
