It’s been a week of reflections. By that I mean too difficult to do what I really want…so Reflection is it ! No surprise that this came to mind while setting out this morning. Regretfully the hands are not responding so we will end up with a Sunday Reflection, (hopefully that is !) And so,Continue reading “Up and up…never give up.”

A little bit of Resilience …
We certainly live in interesting times…Coronavirus and Ciara wrecking havoc…not to mention the big P… (No not Politics…Planets 😊 !) A lot of my ramblings today have been gleaned from a host of articles read this week, ****I just edited many of them together 😊, hands and fingers were not attending the party this weekContinue reading “A little bit of Resilience …”
Holding out for a hero
Everyone needs a Hero…guess I could slip in a Bonnie Tyler quote … Up where the mountains meet the heavens aboveOut where the lightning splits the seaI could swear there is someone, somewhereWatching meThrough the wind, and the chill, and the rainAnd the storm, and the floodI can feel his approach like a fire inContinue reading “Holding out for a hero”
The other Big C …Compromise
In the light of the unavoidable political circus previewing right now I couldn’t help myself. The week has brought with it numerous examples of what is perhaps most lacking in our world, along with Respect, Integrity and Compassion. Triggered by some fb memes this week ! The other big C, COMPROMISE Not counting the currentContinue reading “The other Big C …Compromise”
Blue Monday ?
Blue Monday ? Or Pop goes the Weasel ? No I don’t really believe that but it has been a particularly tougher week. The ongoing spasms and tension in my legs/feet have made sure that sleep is limited to 3-4 hours at most. And no…I have been restricting myself to 2-3 espressos per day- morningsContinue reading “Blue Monday ?”
The week that was , Check!

Who are you ?
Who are you ? Yes, a simple enough question. The answer is what many are searching for (still) “I woke up in a Soho doorwayA policeman knew my nameHe said “You can go sleep at home tonightIf you can get up and walk away”I staggered back to the undergroundAnd the breeze blew back my hairIContinue reading “Who are you ?”
A new Decade, a new day, hello 2020
01.01.2020 A fresh start …or just a new month ? The new decade has arrived with much pomp and ceremony…today feels …well normal …I guess Seth sent through a teasing thought earlier this morning, welcome 2020 A box of infinity It’s hard to look right at it. The possibility that lies before us, the chanceContinue reading “A new Decade, a new day, hello 2020”
A Simple man
A rather deep Reflection…but it’s nearly the start of a new… (the next) 12 months! Inspired by the blog of Joshua last week …I purchased and read (started !) a book on Stoicism…and I may have spent a little too much time trying to absorb all it had to offer ! Summaries are available 😊,Continue reading “A Simple man”
