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”
Hard to Say
Do you spend more time thinking about the future or the past? Why? Minds don’t stay in one place for long. I’m not a fan of looking back unless it’s to good memories. I do like to mull my way forward sometimes, but then that can be to miss the here and now, which isContinueContinue reading “Hard to Say”

This verbal junk skews the way we view the world and feel about ourselves as people. Be discerning No one gets to tell you what itContinueContinue reading “Don’t Buy In”
Lost in My Work

Derailed by common sense When I started out in my work it was as an unexpected medium. My journey began as one of personal changeContinueContinue reading “Lost in My Work”

You Don’t Feel Me
I know what you’re thinking Ha ha ha But that reflects the point We say or write words And those words are heard or read But they’re not felt As a race we laid down our instincts At the foot of progress And we devalued our emotions To honour intellect We lost so much WeContinueContinue reading “You Don’t Feel Me”
