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”
The Sad Ones
What experiences in life helped you grow the most? And it’s no way to grow! No one should grow through fighting for your sanity every day. No one should seek to survive a relationship. No one should dread their job or their boss. Everyone should be told one thing and it should be on theContinueContinue reading “The Sad Ones”
I Believe in Choices
Do you believe in fate/destiny? I’ve been mulling over this blog all day, after the slight shock that the American President actually started a major conflict yesterday. It’s horrific. Fate To me is what’s meant to happen, and I cannot see that any war or conflict was meant to happen. Destiny Is anyone’s destiny toContinueContinue reading “I Believe in Choices”
Loss
Describe a phase in life that was difficult to say goodbye to. A cat because I’ve no pictures of humans – my phone is too young Plus life is life and all life is precious. Coming from a family of animal lovers, my lost loved ones won’t be insulted. In fact, when I was youngContinueContinue reading “Loss”
Marina Monroe
If you could be someone else for a day, who would you be, and why? Nothing to do with Marilyn Monroe. I’ve mentioned my childhood vision before of a family of six identical sisters. These sisters are invincible, incredibly strong, incredibly powerful, yet have no need of violence or to impose their will. It isContinueContinue reading “Marina Monroe”
