Thinking about happiness is so important, thinking only about yourself is too narrow. So this is a list of 31 things that would make me happy if everyone, everywhere, had those things.

Stuff, Money, and Nonsense.
Comparing the life of a blogging friend from the Philippines, to my experience of life in the UK. Very different lives, both have positives, but one clearly wins on natural living and family connection.
Clarence: Oh Woe is They
Hello Peeps Where do I start? Firstly I think certain politicians are being hoist by their own petard! Future and previous President Trump has started before he begins by announcing a lot of wild plans that he thinks are good for America, and he may be right. Unfortunately he’s laid himself wide open to AIContinueContinue reading “Clarence: Oh Woe is They”
The Power of Public Speaking
About 15 years ago there was a study undertaken in America asking what people’s biggest fear was. Dying came second, public speaking came first. There is an organisation for adults called Toastmasters International, it truly is international. If you lack confidence give it a try, they specialise in the terrified. Find a way to teachContinueContinue reading “The Power of Public Speaking”
Clarence: Flashbacks
There you have it, a Siberian kitten called Prince takes up residence at number ten. Who will donate l his first collar I wonder? But does this remind anyone else of Blofield the villain in James Bond? I can see it now… “Ah Angela…” strokes cat “…I’m not very happy with the collapse of theContinueContinue reading “Clarence: Flashbacks”
Just for a Laugh
Life is very serious at the moment in many countries, so I’m dedicating myself to sharing as much fun as I can. Here is my first offering from a US Government site: https://www.plainlanguage.gov/resources/humor/funny-headlines/ I thought it would particularly appeal to writers to remind us that clarity can be tricky. Actually a good reminder for anyone.ContinueContinue reading “Just for a Laugh”
Walk With Me
Don’t feel like moving, no problem. Just sit. Put both hands over your heart. Feel the warmth. Close your eyes. Relax the centre of your forehead. Sounds weird but just let the tension go out of your face. If you see colours accept them. Now, take yourself for a walk, keeping those hands over yourContinueContinue reading “Walk With Me”
Clarence on the Case
Another offering from my roving political reporter who covers all the UK General Elections, and needs the five years in between to recover. Last night one of the architects of Brexit, Johnson’s co-truth-avoider and game player, took over a political party without duly being voted in by the members, and did what we all knewContinueContinue reading “Clarence on the Case”
A Little Bit of Insanity
For the last few years I’ve written a blog based on our general elections, on Facebook. As we’re all in need of a laugh at the moment, I thought I’d share it on here too. The sad thing is that politics is a subject that should be taken seriously as it affects us all, butContinueContinue reading “A Little Bit of Insanity”
Creating Happiness
Sometimes happiness arrives on a sunbeam, seemingly out of nowhere, and unexpected joy takes over our lives. Other times life is so challenging we wouldn’t recognise happiness if the sunbeam smacked us straight between the eyes! Imagine that! Drowning in focus It sounds like an urban myth but it’s actually true, that what your focusContinueContinue reading “Creating Happiness”
