there's always someone better off than you

Hull City midfielder Ryan Mason says he is now in a "positive place" as he continues his painstaking recovery from a fractured skull. Mason underwent emergency surgery in January after suffering a sickening head injury in the Tigers' 2-0 loss at Chelsea saw him rushed to hospital.

The 25-year-old would later admit he felt "lucky to be alive" and last week he stepped up his rehabilitation when returning to City's training ground.Mason continues to be limited to light fitness work but he feels it is the "right time" to push on in his bid for a comeback next season.

some good news surrounding what was a awful injury
also worse was the fact that it was played out live on the TV
Still find it difficult to focus on the injury
but like us all in life we have to face these unexpected challenges

sometimes it feels like your prayers are not answered nor are  you moving forward
stuck in a place you can not get out of
the help sometimes offered is too focus on those worse off
personally l find this a wee bit offensive 
we are often told not to worry
even that it our own fault
that a system error
it really the other way around it the fault of the powerful and rich
we stumble against wickedness and creulity 
every day it possible to be worn down
however we got to carry on
whether it be a injury illness poverty
it does not have to be like this . . . perhaps targeted direct action is required
are you ready to lead

breathe
reflect
process 
act

these guys put it better then me track it and give it a listen

Silver Lining

Stiff Little Fingers

They tell you not to worry
They say they're terribly sorry
But that's the way it has to be
For the likes of me
Just be good and know your station
Always look on the bright side
Keep your faith and keep your patience
Your reward is after you've died

So don't be told
Don't be consoled
Things are so bad
You can never make do
And there's always someone better off than you
