Hit a Brick Wall?
Are you feeling that you’ve been struggling to move forward, yet for every step you take you seem to be taking three steps backwards? Ever thought you’re going in the wrong direction, or doing something you don’t authentically, in your heart, want to do? That’s often the bit we don’t think about. Could this beContinueContinue reading “Hit a Brick Wall?”
Double Edged Swords
Today’s writing prompt, or one three years ago depending on when you’re reading this, inspired me to think about the ways that we humans are so unaware of our impact. How we look at things only one way, when there is at least one more way they can be viewed. How our word comes fromContinueContinue reading “Double Edged Swords”
Alone but Not Lonely
Do you suffer from loneliness? This is a long blog but this is a complex question with many potential causes. I suggest that you look at just the ones that resonate with you if you’re not into long reads. On the other hand it may help you identify what triggers your feelings of loneliness.

Blame -v- Responsibility
I’m learning something new that is based on taking total responsibility for your life, for everything that happens to you, even when someone else has done whatever it is. So if someone is unpleasant to you, you were in that place at that time, and so you take responsibility. You may feel like stopping readingContinueContinue reading “Blame -v- Responsibility”
Absent From My Life

I’m not talking about being self-centred, I’m talking about being so affected by the outside world you forget to consciously create the innerContinueContinue reading “Absent From My Life”
Clarence: Frozen Out
It was minus something last night, I couldn’t see as the face of my watch froze. I’ve been sitting up a tree every night for weeks waiting for something to happen, anything. I’ll take Keir Starmer falling over his slippers I’m that desperate. I did try Rishi Sunak’s home, but he seems to be thoroughlyContinueContinue reading “Clarence: Frozen Out”

You can look around you for help, outside you, consult experts, read the best books, talk to all your friends, and all of this isContinueContinue reading “Define ‘It’”

Clarence: Post Budget Blues
Hey Peeps Finally after weeks of worrying about nothing more than rich people getting dresses donated or a free box at football, we finally have a budget, and the tax rises that were never going to happen except they were inevitable. The 1p off a pint of beer was moderately…ridiculous. You’d have to give yourselfContinueContinue reading “Clarence: Post Budget Blues”
