I remember when I was around 12 years old carol singing with my friends and we used to sing this on every doorstep. The more we sang it, the better it got. Then a man opened the door and gave us £10. That was a lot of money in those days. Especially to a bunch of kids. We were all amazed. Then he said ‘you’ve just saved my life.’ I will always remember that moment. TBH©
Everyone has a circle. It is where you put all the people you admire and care about in one special place in your heart and this person is called Mark who is in our circle. He sings beautifully. I am really happy when I see him singing. He is very gifted.
Here is my customary ‘annual’ crimbo card. I tend to thank the year on winter solstice. I love fairy lights and romantic movies. I hope for 2018 people are less violent towards one another and that includes being suggestive about violence as much as acting on violence. If you think like that, you need therapy. And try to remember the real world is not in your smart phone or any other man made device. I love my circle.
And for 2018. I have no plans to change a thing about myself. I am proud to be honest. To stand up to bullies. To fight for individual rights against all odds and support women in my groups. I will continue to work with animal rescue as a volunteer. As I have done all my life. Nothing will change. I have found myself. I am awake.
It is true. It is all in the journey, not the destination. Don’t envy me. Be like me. You can’t go wrong. TBH©
Christmas baffles me ‘mostly.’
Black Friday where people stamp over one another.
Expensive cakes that we could make ourselves.
Greedy families who spend forthcoming months paying off debt for surplus packaging.
Not enough doing crucial work in their communities with causes and smaller charity and of course the homeless. (Which is what I do each year for a couple of days. Not long enough I know – but it helps.)
Obesity peaks for the privileged.
Kids and pets choking on bits out of crackers.
Yet it is beautiful for the children who realise it’s all about family, goodwill and a humble spirit – lessons taught to us by Jesus through the holy spirit – the divine. A shaman of peace and love who celebrated life on a day to day basis. No desire for material wealth or egotistical recognition. A healer with little popularity til after his death. A death caused by greed and ego. A cyclical trait that comes back to haunt us intermittently.
(Extract from book I hope to finish one day.)
