A great big hill called hope . . . .summit ahead

So long we all been climbing up this hill called the seculation of our society

Without realising that there nothing but an empty house that deserted of all common sense at the top

The road near the top takes a few turns

Offers a nice view but it's a bit of a shocker at the top

But it had so much promise from what we knew and had experiance 

We threw out the sandcastle and play pen

We threw Jesus out of the sandpit

Then we discovered life is so silent lacks true, deep purpose

God and Christ became swear words

Looking at our neighbour and their needs no longer had value

Doing our thing became acceptable

Children got neglected

The aged got forgotten

Some values got altered 

Smiles disappeared and those simple moments got forgotten

Maybe your thinking well kevin waller going to say that he a believer in God

But here's the rub

I'm hearing it all over

We need to return to the garden

Good news is it still possible

All things are....time to repent (that means turn around,go another way ) take a long hard look back to the sandpit 

Back to yesterday when you threw away Jesus stuff and God thoughts and ideas was there something of value we need to hold onto? . . bring back to the lives we now live?

I think so . . . .

where we are now

When the 'new self' became established it brought a new self attitude 

That replaced others first

'So train hard or leave the gym'

Became --'l can train only as hard as l wish' don't respect your aim to improve me

As l am the 'newself'

This attitude became aspirational . ..

 belief in you and you alone

Mixed with a society which is more self serving

More self centred

'Me me me'

Became a mantra heard loud heard often

The old way practiced by the few of 'Others first self not even second'got drowned out

We became where we are now!

Time to walk
Then swim
Relax
Go to restaurant
Simply chill
Getting health improvement everyday
That me at present

God bless you with time for yourself
God bless your health
God bless your circumstances and smile upon you this day

Watchtower and danger site

"When they made me the keeper of the watch tower

My own watchtower did l not see...."

well something like that about the dangers of not being properly focuses

Lot of these ramblings are mainly my own thoughts.

As l faith journey along the way

Having some me time ,Walking

Taking a deep breathe while l wonder what ahead! 

It's actually a part of my skill set to be a 'reflective practitioner'. 

We all need to develop a time to process what we are reading, around us, too many times we rush to performance. 

Without the important reflection and processing. Treat yourself to a walk and a cuppa while process the sounds, and smells, further the world around you. Be blessed.

Now is the time to get things right

Now is the hour

Now is the time 

About now time for you to do what one thinks  is the correct thing to do.

Maybe it simply not just laugh at odd unkind comment,  that's one example.

Like me, we all  can accidentally play along to a prejudice by not speaking then there is 

the tension of what you say and the tone you use.

But now might be the time for you to act.

Speak out.

Challenge. 

Only you will know that now has arrived,

What time is it . . . . . .now is the time!

Time and tide turning.

Government in Wales plans to criminalise parents who smack their children. This is a huge threat to family freedom. It will turn thousands of loving parents into criminals, overwhelm police. Social workers overwhelmed with trivial reports so that real cases of child abuse are missed.

As the world turns,

Laws change values.

Ethics.

Codes.

Morality.

Customs.

They change, Question is always,

"Is it changing for the better?

If not why not? a

Are we going one way,

While the world goes another?

Turn, turn, turn and face the world

to often the Christian community retreats, turns away, becomes more inward.

Breathe

Time to breathe

Watch the pace of you slow

Friendships will deepen

Breathe health will improve 

Breathe and think deeper 

Breathe pace walk at what you see will be different

Breathe be more tolerable

Breathe hear yourself

Breathe read that book make them notes share that feeling open you

You

That important perhaps proud perhaps fragile being

Breathe and become more humble 

Listen 

As you breathe

Breathe because you can be eaten sometimes by the society you excise among

Breathe so as you reflect can be more relevant

Breathe

Travelling and journey

Don't know why get so apprehension but l do on journeys

Travelled on a plane yesterday then a coach journey Day began with car and metro travel

Felt few twinges and slight pain really l was working hard

also long days with very early starts

About to walk

Walk

Long walk in the sun . . . .then the day can begin

Here to the workers in the fields here's to the lonely everywhere

Let the day begin

life it can be a simple game

One of my pleasure last week was watching for around an hour the wildlife local to us we all went into the car with fish and  chips listening to something on the radio while we ate our food
then we travelled by foot along the river bank for an hour enjoying the breathe and pace while also watching Seals and birdlife on cool winter`s day
feeling blessed sometimes LIFE it really is that simple

THIS IS AN EGRIT
apparently it pretty unusual and rare but we witness these quite a lot
about to take some time to concentrate on myself and my health
l feel guilty
being away
swimming
walking
enjoying the sun
improving my health
talking to friends l do not see very much
looking at new sights
visiting old Churches
reading
being warm
not doing any washing up
it that's simple sometimes
LIFE

inner murmers

somethings in life are just beautiful
the Owl flying silently as you drive along
Sparrow hawk watching for its next meal on top of a lamppost
The sound of waves rushing along the pebbles
wind blowing its simple stuff
but it can help you connect in deeper
with your soul crying for a little peace

this world takes huge chunks out of each of us
strive to be happy
be yourself
simply love as best as you can
try in your heart to be true to your inner murmers

Not so good deed

Police ‘failing victims of crime’ says critical report 
The heartbroken family of a 17-year-old boy who was found hanged from a tree have paid tribute to a caring young man who had an "infectious zest for life".

A touchline spectator at the game, ran onto the pitch and attacked the victim after seeing the confrontation.

He pleaded guilty to one charge of common assault.

Reading the facts of the case, District Judge Fred Rutherford said: "He is watching a football match in which his girlfriend is playing. She's involved in an altercation with female player from the other team.

"He's not the only one who sees it fit to involve himself. In the evidence of the referee, there's a melee and there's several players involved. People try to separate them"

and the beat goes on
and the beat goes on
and the beat goes on
It appears we are getting worse as a society
beginning to wonder how low we can sink
beginning to wonder who can lead us
especially as so few of us vote
behind such headlines are broken and damaged people who are struggling trying to make the best in a world that appears to have gone so mad

How do find the appropriate lifestyle?
In what ways would it be recognisable?
Can it be achieved in a broken world?
What are the values it may display
Got to ask?
Preparing for a plane journey
Everything will be up in the air!

I guess.

DON`T GET CLEVER

We are called to Love God
Love one another
Follow Jesus.
Then we get clever 
and we start to fail

three main reasons why Christianity fails

Two gatherings about faith one in north Yorkshire,
The other few minutes from my home.
One connected with emergent faith journeys, in which l am leading a little talk about Jesus.
The other l am just going to listen
 as the local  Salvation army want people to attend a meeting,
about them closing their meeting place.






Their are three main reasons why Christianity fails in mission

poor networks

offer of immediate spirituality

bad Management of resources

poor networks
offer of immediate spirituality
bad Management of resources 

Often it is a combination of these factors
we are called to Love God
Love one another
Follow Jesus.
Then we get clever and we start to fail
lets talk about Jesus

Inner story of heart that is heavy

Biggles Waller on the oxcegon machine that now part of my inner story

The health challanges l use this very sparingly it helpful

But it not going to become part of my regime or routine

My inner story is about heart a heart that needs repair

But heart that also heavy for what witnessed

The inner city plus rural community

Blighted and forgotten

Heart is heavy when l think how Low we come that poverty increased in my working environment

In my life time

Heart is heavy that many left by the wayside while rich get richer 

Poor get poorer

Heart is heavy for the love not shared heart is heavy and feels beaten because l know God is love just weary that he not so obvious

Heart is heavy that this burden is clear poor get poorer and vulnerable get left behind

Love wins

But my inner story is about heart that is heavy

God knows this much 'it a burden'others often faith people  . . .we share this heavy burden

VISION AND THE INNER STORY

They Long To Be Close To You had been written by Bacharach and his partner Hal David some seven years earlier, and was included in Dionne Warwick’s third album. In addition to Karen’s alluring lead vocal, the Carpenters added intricate harmonies to a beautiful arrangement by Richard who also shortened the title and, in six weeks, the song occupied the No.1 spot on the American charts. It remained one of the best sellers of the year, and sold over three million copies worldwide. 

Perhaps today we can think about our words how they make impact someone`s `inner-story`, maybe need to affirm someone . .  complement them

Don`t touch the subject much but discernment, Further prayer would help in this task.

That could be a vision for this day be aware to others `inner story`.

Not everyone is aware of their own inner story either so that just makes it more complicated, how ever still need to make an effort.

My inner story is affected by current health,which should improve soon as l head to my `idea of Paradise`.

Karen`s inside story

Hope has a new face.
Words have lasting legacy,
There is something about music, listening to soul and the emotion in a song.
But also interested in the `times` (Period) a song was a hit and the `place`,what its narrative is about.
Saw an interesting Documentary about `Carpenters` yesterday, such angelic voice .. such a troubled life.
All really down to Karen's inside story.
The issue she faced,Further the impact of others voice`s,words and disberging comments.

Her inner story was effected by the story others projected about her size,Her weight,her looks.

Very little projected to `affirm` her, so her `inner story` became an outer struggle, with bulimia eventually leading to heart attack,then Death.

my inner formings

Something happened in our inner -story that appears in our outer character ,it may be lack of monetary reward so perhaps that made us steward better or become mean, without starting to be mean.

We just have a value around money that is to do with not having a great deal.

That one example it just that.
Well may be the eldest of a large family we always had to be more thoughtful or did we become slightly resentful?
Or the youngest of an large family so we in awe, always looked after and learnt to rely on others.
Perhaps in doing so we became more and not less reliant.
It was not a choice
it was just some forming that occurred.
One male worked with never got money in his hand so we found at weekend retreats he was very moody and argumentative all due to the fact that he had no simple disposable cash at such trips.
Became resentful we always had strict codes around how much money to bring away on such trips.
l once explained that l don't carry much cash and don't spend when away like this, this enabled him to not be so envious, while also made sure we never went to places where need lot of spending.
Simple rule but perhaps also it part of my inner being playing out into social life.
What might be happening at present in your inner story.
We don't always get the chance to reflect in depth
but it allowed need to do this often just sit and think about inner me and that journey.
The inner me and that journey makes sense to reward one self with these thoughts and time to reflect.

But ...yes they do

Life can be a bit tough cold wind and lack of routine for many around you this day may be tough.
BUT things get better they really do.

what made both you and myself the people we have become, how did our inner story grow and develop forcing out into the characters we are today
what was good and grew positive
what challenges did we face that appear to reflect negative traits outwardly

"At night... when the bars close down

 . . . . walks through a silent town

And loves a ... who's not around

She still can hear him say"

Love music, and this morning l enjoyed few hours sat listening to music,the story and the narrative as someone lays a panel of emotions around you.
gain some insight and wonderment at the lyrics

hello its getting warmer and l need to be healthier

hello it`me

I've thought about us for a long, long time,
Maybe I think too much but something's wrong,
There's something here that doesn't last too long,
 . . . . 
Seeing you, or seeing anything as much as I do you,
 . . . . .
I take for granted that you just don't care,
Sometimes  . .


It's important to me 
That you know you are free,
 . . . .
Think of me,
You know that I'd be with you if I could
I'll come around to see you once in a while
 . . . .
And spend the night if you think I should
hello it`s me

l doing OK really l not sure always how l became the me reflecting all that stuff from the inside l personally just feel its important to share inner self even if that can be harmful
hello l am still here trying hard to be someone who cares for others as much as l do
my Inner journey has to pour out to make room for other stuff it the only process of growth l find healthy at present

untalented

Modernism is the product of the untalented,
sold by the unscrupulous,
to the utterly bewildered.

New line in modelling is based on styles as worn by homeless people
like the blade in the centre of Hull City,
the UK city of Culture 2017.
It`s not art
it`s trash
and someone is being ignored and exploited
how did we lose
when did it become OK to use `Homeless people` as statements of art
oh and the piece of junk that fills Hull City Centre.

Modernism is the product of the untalented, sold by the unscrupulous, to the utterly bewildered.

fever, chills, and dehydration

Your symptoms are nausea, vomiting, stomach cramping, and diarrhoea. Add fever, chills, and dehydration and you have a personal crisis.  Food poisoning, while extremely unpleasant, will commonly last only 1 to 2 days.  

#that been me for 3 full days lot better now
thanks to friends and neighbours
it started with the chills out walking rushed back for some back of the toilet spray painting
that remained with little let up and little sleep
for over 60 hours
all that time l had four shortcake biscuits
two slices of toast
lost bit of weight#



that me in the corner not losing my religion

THE SHAME OF MALTA
