To speak ill of others is a dishonest way of praising ourselves. Nothing is often a good thing to say, and always a clever thing to say.

Little less discomfort.

Conversations are not easy when we approach difficult subjects. So we need to develop strategy and approach the matter with some kind of plan. This is where may start to struggle with fact that mechanically we are exploring option to address humans. But when we don't ,

we then potentially because of sometimes 'our desire to softly, softly approach,', difficult conversation explodes or implodes. Often years of broken relationships exist because we didn't look at our options.

AVOID. ... Disagree with those who say avoidance is a card shouldn't pay. Sometimes you might be the best option. Even with the view to return later to the issue. But To avoid also worst option.

DISMISS. To not accept another's view and explain why. Completely not accept the view held by other person or group. It painful recieving allows nothing for construction. Little if anything to build upon.

CONFRONT. This is difficult to me this appears hard. But have to sometimes approach difficult situations by firstly outlining the facts, secondly whilst also demonstrating feelings plus own hurts. Such strategic thinking is not easy but vital if ways forward can be found.

This could be risky.

When we talk openly about ourselves and move to sharing. It can be inevitable that we become vulnerable because that's risky we try to avoid building relationships. Fear that others won't respect us again leads to males especially holding back. Honesty is an issue that shows others we are real people even though carries with it aspects of being very uncomfortable 

The biggest fear researchers suggested when discussing communications is our concern that others when get to hear us is this:- They make not like us. That fear in my view is not justified. When ever witnessed groups that I've led ,'being honest with each other', there is genuinely acceptance of the person speaking.

Seriously believe many of modern illnesses held by young, could be overcome with curriculum education about how to be respectful and genuine about acceptance of others people. Invest in others persons ideals ethics and attitudes.

To be accepted as a real person who honest without worrying about social media image is lacking. Often see young people travelling or sitting in groups not communicating wearing headphones to 'Mullifie' the painful outside world. Comfortable in own music, own fears concerns, targeted by alga rhymes that further damage the mindset.

Not picking up anything from the ' Others' reminds me of John Wyndham's , book the trifords.

WE ARE IN DIFFICULT PERIOD.

 - Jewish leaders co-founded the NAACP in 1909 and funded/led it for generations when no one else would.

- When Dr. King and our people were arrested, beaten, jailed—Jewish lawyers defended us for free, and Jewish money paid bail bonds and court fees while others turned away. - In Freedom Summer '64, half the white volunteers risking death to register Black voters? Jewish. - Rabbi Heschel marched arm-in-arm with MLK in Selma—our struggles linked forever.

Without their blood, treasure, solidarity, and courage—there is no Civil Rights Movement as we know it. No Voting Rights Act. No dream realized.

Many like you and me have the same struggles, possibly same challenges what's confusing myself quite a lot how we came to be allowing false teaching of a death cult so much prominence in Europe while ignoring plight of those damaged killed tortured and imprisoned. Right now we need to prevent another 1930's which is not Parbati but for everyone including the people of Iran. Society in UK feels its full of people schooled into ignoring this issue nor the dangers that becoming very obvious.

 

intimate knowledge of woman

  "The minute you own a piece of real estate, then you have to have somebody to clean it, then you have to have somebody to be sure that it gets clean, then you have to get somebody to be sure that it's insured, and the next thing you know, you've got a bishop."

It does remind myself of a similar quote from the wire...D'Angelo Barksdale is polite but damaged drug enforcer having his own corner in Baltimore. Working his drugs from a inner city area in poverty stricken city.

Sound familiar.

He involved with kind hearted hooker. Sharing breakfast one morning he declares some of his intimate knowledge of woman to his new companion.

" Well first she wants a fur coat, then she wants a bedroom suite then she wants a key, next she choosing our home."

Life does have certain processes that need to be resolved worked on with everyone interest taken into account.

We are witnessing in Gozo the sister island to Malta a lack of understanding around footfall environmental damage. And economic well being. With already the island cannot function because of large number of visitors traffic congestion, further impact upon limited infrastructure of this very very small island.

This real estate is not managed nor used to the inhabitant best interests.

The process has failed 

Plans.

Don’t worry sir "I have a cunning plan to solve the problem".

 'Baldrick, let us not forget that you tried to solve the problem of your mother’s low ceiling by cutting off her head.'

My cunning plans often get rejected. When your poorly or as l call it, ill, plans go out the window, earlier this day several of us were talking about how guilt comes into the situation as then one can't commit to schedules,  like the last few days, then feel sometimes fell absent. 
Feel not contributing.
Feel guilty. 
Feel further isolated.

Poor health which you or another you may be aware of is just who you are at present.

 Simply not been good health ways this week but more especially this very day. But l rejoice as poor health humbles myself. Perhaps just perhaps, ( l am thinking aloud). Perhaps helps me appreciate good periods. But strange sense of wasting each moment. The pain only slight next few days try talking to NHS in depth.

This is me just being open plus honest on this level of discussion. Sharing so we grow, that perhaps you too have I'll health just need to understand it may have become. Uncomfortable to say this, but like this author of this blog, maybe ill health just part of who you are now. No rewards no medals or certificates.

It just seldom gets mentioned. Poor health which you or another you may be aware of is just who you are at present. With me it's the feeling of wasted days not keeping up with everyday normalities.

I should try Art, doodles, more reading ...but just sleep then my heart recovers cardiac issues improve enough and recover slightly. It's that simple.

Exploring emotional literacy issues.

 

Having completed 17 years as a primary school teacher, Ian long was working full time enabling the so very useful `Blob Tree products` at one time with late BHP former frontier youth worker Pip Wilson. Don`t know how this is developing but got a email saying Ian Longs latest challenge was visually translate the Bible verse by verse without words.  Non linear images for the tabloid gospel workers still active out there in rural communities and the inner cities.

The Blob Tree and thousands of similar products are used around the world to help people express their feelings. Well resourced product's for exploring emotional literacy issues. More especially with None book people.

Meanwhile in the UK.

It’s the textbook grooming model: gifts, compliments, making their victims feel special and wanted. It’s that much easier to coerce a child into “accepting” their abuse when one creates a power imbalance or a sense of social currency. That the price you pay for being groomed is rape, abuse, and exploitation. That you deserve it.
That you asked for it.
That you brought it on yourself. Child sexual exploitation is a tale as old as time. But it isn’t a thing of the past. It is still happening in towns and cities across the UK. Little girls are being subjected to the worst abuse imaginable, at the hands of men who know they can get away with it.
