What change, big or small, would you like your blog to make in the world? I used to suffer from terrible acute anxiety. I was born into a very messed up family, no abuse, but I’m still seeing the effects in my younger brother and until recently my cousin, to this day. I way toContinueContinue reading “Just to help”

The Rest is silence
Photo by Andrea Piacquadio on Pexels.com As with a lot of my older work I can see that this piece is relevant to people of all genders, and no matter the relationship. It could equally be parent child. I find it so interesting the different way we look at life such a few short yearsContinueContinue reading “The Rest is silence”
Not Just Other Worldly
It might sound when I write as if I’m almost entirely other-worldly, which is miles from the truth. I’ve always been a person who loves people, and I meet as many amazing human beings as I connect with incredible off-world beings. For me both words and images are things I hold onto during the difficultContinueContinue reading “Not Just Other Worldly”
Respect should be automatic
Photo by Dio Hasbi Saniskoro on Pexels.com We need to move to a place where we automatically offer respect, understanding, tolerance, and kindness, until someone else convinces us we’re wasting a lot of good energy on them. Then we don’t change, we simply move on. It is not a big ask in this world toContinueContinue reading “Respect should be automatic”

As such, this is a very personal account of how it felt to be me, in a way that I found more comfortable at the time, trying to bring a little lightContinueContinue reading “Breakdown”
You Should See Her
I love the twist at the end of this poem. One of those where you think it’s obvious and then it isn’t. But to me, as a spiritual thinker, this has an important point. We’re more alike than we think, and there’s a little bit of everything in all of us. It’s quite weird lookingContinueContinue reading “You Should See Her”
Please God
Photo by Asad Photo Maldives on Pexels.com In re-reading this after so many years I felt uncomfortable with the anti-male attitude, but instead it’s an exploration of feelings, and an acknowledgement that what we feel may not be the only truth.She turns and smiles at meand I feel my womb smile in returnand echo onContinueContinue reading “Please God”
Cast Off
Photo by Anete Lusina on Pexels.com Going through my old work there was clearly I time that I was disenchanted with life and love. I wondered whether to share this, but all emotions have a place in life and the difficult ones are often only too real.This one was written for a friend who’d beenContinueContinue reading “Cast Off”
Newton’s Law (of communication)
I know I’ve used this image before, but I love it, and it reflects the subject matter of communication snafu’s. One of the things humans either take for granted, don’t think through properly, and generally mess up, is communication. Especially about difficult subjects. Few of us enjoy being criticised or told we’re wrong, especially asContinueContinue reading “Newton’s Law (of communication)”
