This present path of shutdown is so dull........

"The path that takes us straight to its destination is a dull one indeed. It carries only the one message and when we have read it, we have read it. The winding road, however, is a continuous story. Each bend is a mystery and rounding it a discovery." ~C.R.Milne #thursdaymorning

There me about to start rereading road less travelled...M Scott Peck.

Book starts with those eternal truths three words we don't won't to hear

Life is tough

Mind you there also the three words l like to hear..

I love you....

Three words FA lived to hear where

...let me pay....that women in general l believe ...

Anyway back to road less travelled.it talks,encourages us to examine better,listen more,stand alongside those with differant views.

I am hearing old ancient views,ancient words,ancient teachings still worth investing time around.

There another three words ...

Investing time in.....

Grant you courage to do this,soon as possible.......

Remind me sometime was the ole normal worth hanging onto

We must never surrender to the New Normal. Argument that few want to create future,with permanent social distancing, mask wearing most places,Asian people often have this, With unnecessary restrictions around how liberty.

We can forget travel. 

Let's shout out 'No way. Lets shout to the top

" We want our freedom back "

We want our freedom back"

As witness the struggles, let's return lost liberties, sooner then is possible.

Lot of damage being done.....hidden but abuse,sexual crime,theft,brokenness is seldom visible.

Blog to U from seaside town they forgot to close down

They closed down a country

They closed down the world

They closed long time ago now free speech

But they can never close our minds

Well only if you let them

Read

Play vinyl

Watch little TV

Connect with others

Espically those in poor health 

Espically those struggle

Give others your smile

Desire enough

Desire no more then enough

Follow Jesus

Explore his kingdom values

Doubt celebrate what you doubt

Allow faith to be child like...that means question ...wrestle...conclude...share

They cannot close your minds unless you allow them

Wind mental...waves are so very high...bitterly cold so stay warm read older posts l am just trying to stay warm next few days

Level five .......received this and pretty sure read this some place else

One way to measure is by looking at the content of conversations y'all are having or the level of disclosure members are sharing with.
​A helpful tool for me to determine this is the Levels of Communication. The framework is typically used in marriages, but it works just as well for friendships in my opinion (as most good marriage advice does and vice versa). 
​
So let's take a look at the levels:
​
Level One: Hallway Talk- “Fine, how are you?” - Having a cliché conversation. 
​
Level Two: Reporter Talk - “Just give me the facts.” Reporting facts about other people and events. 
​
Level Three: Intellectual Talk - “Do you know what I think?” - Exchanging ideas and opinions. 
​
Level Four: Emotional Talk - “Let me tell you how I feel.” - Sharing feelings and needs. 
​
Level Five: Loving Genuine Truth Talk - “Let’s be honest.” - Risking complete emotional and personal truthfulness.
​
Is it a perfect framework? No. But can it be helpful? Absolutely.
​Ask yourself today what level you think your group or even your friends are on. Then ask what's one conversation you want to start that will add the next level of depth.
​You shouldn't go from one to five in an instant, but if you're conscious of all this and how it works, then you can slowly and surely lead the way forward in the direction of intimacy. AND know when you're close

Little by little...Denying Holocaust! Risen in my lifetime.

Remember the Holocaust. Never forget how it came to be: little by little...hateful rhetoric, fear-mongering, visible designations of discrimination, radically inhumane nationalism, white supremacy...all festering until reality reflected rhetoric, until... #HolocaustMemorialDay

I did not know the value..of those conversations.

Then l had so little grown up understanding

Last ten years reflect n my journey,understand better

I grieve

I worked for a survivor of concentration camp,he mentored me into trade

He mentored me into Adulthood.

Watched me boxed in a contest

Helped me learn to drive.

He passed to me a trade

Passed to me his own (plus others),Experiance of life

Friendship.....Long chats,asking me to run to Polska Bakers for half rye loaf ,along with struddles.

Cuppa ,treat, Then laugh ,pause, reflect times in camp when only had cabbage soup.

He was fortunate ...tailoring trade allowed him to be kept......not safe  . .Kept

I hold these moments in my heart forever.......miss that great person ....Mr Todryk

In our trade there were so many who experianced the war,even some who fought for Germans.

Jewish haberdazeries told me own experiances.

Some younger poles.They had too fight for enemy or die..it was when Germans occupied..

often happened in wars.

I am better person for knowing their stories

I am better person for listening to those experiances

I am better person because l was small part witness making better our society,

I get angry when some deny these people and powerful message they shared.

I got a jigsaw to help pass the time..Says up to 8 to 10 years....l did it in six weeks what about that

Eschatological moment's

 Waves sound loud as riding up shore....there is this boossieness 

Up to nine feet as they crash against prom......many walk like myself here,in very early hours.

Grateitude echos in my heart when near the sea...

Seasons end.. journey end...days begin...presently Moon and Sun appear in sky together

Little chatter....only bit of nature evident...first Crocuses.

Yellow tits.... Redbacks... Merlin's

Death

Death 

Don't mourn when my journey reaches its moment

Part of life ,the final period

Am l ready?

Unsure...

What will my legacy be?

Did l invest enough in others?

Have l spent my time in ways that are wise?

Did l kiss enough People.....well I tried

Did l play music loud enough...have l been with excluded enough...what movie should l have watched with others?

Freezin on the coast...internet not good ,TV appears boring,music, books getting thru this.God bless

 Plus it's wet

Very wet

Fields flooding

Cattle moved

Feel bit trapped inside

That's OKAY

Responce to huge fire at immigration camp in Kent

The cause of a huge fire at the ex-military facility accommodating illegal migrants has yet to be confirmed, but the Home Secretary has reportedly called the destruction "appalling" and "deeply offensive to the taxpayers of this country who are providing this accommodation." 

Fancy some facebooked me asking to sign a petion to get this closed down!

I have been to these places .Let me be clear here 'better place then my own'.

Bills paid 

Getting fed

Claims being processed

Friends close by and not in danger

In the piece (of not surprising news) !Police confirmed ......

it is treating the fire at the Napier Barracks yesterday as suspected arson.

Migrants kicked off as some got the hotel treatment following a Covid outbreak ,

and some didn't, so they trashed the canteen and started a fire.

Unhappy being told to stay in the barrecks ......want freedom

Well so do we

I want to be able to move around freely

But we cannot 

Do not appreciate some people suggesting we British holding people came here illegally in prison

Preventing them moving around.

I cannot drive where l wish

People been fined going more then 7 miles from thier home

Family's been fined for meeting up 

Traveling 

Shopping for non essentials.

Return to that non essential later.

It's called a pandamic,liberal views are Irrelevent ..unhelpful ...hurt staff trying hard to allow them access to situation they chose to enter.

Not I fear nor in danger ....life is tough but they are actuly free...or where they living about circumstances and situations they fled from?

Non essential

S my desire to watch a DVD or buy some vinyl essential ...l did not expect to be in this kind of society

We are becoming very harsh in our treatment of each other.

So this is freedom

You must be joking

Still here in January 2021 where days fall not one,months don't change and years stalled

Often in past l would be preparing to escape

For health reasons

Getting ready to depart

Warmer

Sunny

Friendly

Talking more...engage others more ..eat better...see old friends same old tried tested vacancies 

Now everything rolls along weather cold

Hate social media connections

Hate espically poor bullying journalisum so evident on news channels along with news stands

Dislike this moment 

Where we are truly stuck in a moment we can't get away from.

Pray

Hope

Read

Connect

Travel

Communicate 

Still stood in a moment we ,you and l,can't get away from

Health issue...places where light still is alongside me

Got food

Got warmth

Will get by....just don't like being here...cannot see reason nor rhythm of life

Mentally safe

Money's ways safe

Miss that sense of belonging of preparing,departing,going somewhere

Stuck here in this place we can't get away from.......

You and l ....

Been long time since heard from a Forever Angel ....kinda hard too

Life is just too tough.....

 

WALK ALONG BEACHFRONT DEEPLY APPRECIATE THE PLACE... SENSE OF SPACE

ECHOES TO RETURN AGAIN.. OFTEN I REFLECT GET DAYS INTO PERSPECTIVE

PRAY.... THINKING...TALK ALOUD.. SHAKE MY FIST... LISTEN TO GOD.

COULERS OF MORNING SUN...IN THE POOLS FORMED ON SAND

KNOW SOMEONE HE STRUGGLING IN HIS PLACE.

THINK MANY WANT FIND SENSE OF JUSTICE......THINK LIFE IS TOO TOUGH

THINK THAT THOUGHT A LOT . .NOT LACK OF FAITH OR CHALLENGE AROUND FAITH

.....   ...  I..  JUST THINK LIFE LOCAL. FURTHER FOR FEW ..ITS JUST TOO TOUGH

Poor journalism coming under scrutiny ......been a while but turning,it's turning.

The TV news and radio coverage been challanged few ways this day

Surprised that BBC led. Twice.

Yeah shocked me...

Radio 4 ran informative hour at one o clock looking at ways in which children suffered during this lockdown

Many schools been hit and miss...in and out.

Homes not really suitable for learning

Socail media fails a fair few

Teachers not been committed ,that sounds mean but matter of fact.

Not able to assist each pupil by remote learning

Simple fact.Children trying hard,working with them

 l expect that resilance from them

Further commitment also present

But remote learning often choas and limited.

Real community required in developing socail skills .

Teachers cannot keep adjusting to changing situation.

Scientist also featured suggested no evidence that it was helping in controlling even more distructive virus.

Journalist also come under attack BBC for promoting great lockdown.

An MP spoke at length about difficulties being experianced it was last week was not covered until today.

Lockdown great if you got wage

Great if you can work from home

OK if secure with money.

IF not,then really difficult place to be imprisoned.

Rich are getting richer

Poor as always well....you can fill in the quote yourself.

C19 highlights further equality so evidnt in our country.

Radio BBC Radio 2..we have Jeremy Vine ...money bags and greed...also TV piers Morgan...bully and simpleton.

Poor journalisum in Hull newspaper suggests that those on UC ESA Other Benefits would revive £1000.... No story just fake news .

Immediately those are attacked for wanting 'Smart Phones etc...

Article states...

A Government source reportedly said: "One of the motivations of the Treasury is they think people will go out and spend it and help stimulate the economy."

The paper says the Treasury confirmed a one-off payment was on the table for discussion.

Promotes a question... Do you think this is a good idea?

 Looking after the poor is a choice making them victims of poor biased reporting an act of injustice,shameful also.

The newspaper industry and crop of present journalists peddle bad feeling,fear and promote low cultures.

Values many have little time for....sign of the times pandamic or no pandamic poor storytelling.

Radio BBC Radio 2..we have Vine ...money bags and greed...also TV piers Morgan...bully and simpleton..

We deserve much better.

Did a song say something like.. "there comes a time when we heed a certain call,we all come together as one..."

The past

Echoes into this moment..on the coast bitterly cold,struggling to stay warm day.

Perhaps hope finds the conditions difficult,wonder about future.

Psalm ,a song ,a echo from past ....hear it sonic ,reaches your heart.

Begin to sing internally.

Know own voice is aged and not finest,

 but heart is racing with emotions,the operatic underscore of where you find yourself with others.

Presently.

....There comes a time when we hear a certain call...

And the world comes together as one...

...there are people dying ...its time to lend a hand...

We got together addressed issues fought in team,all united for common good of others.

Lessons learnt a better way of being.

A better way of doing emerged.

Needed again.

Suzanne reids breast ,well nothing to local Robin...yeah but he not readingnews!

 

Really to read the news dress like that

Maybe the simpleton who bullies the guest need her alongside him

but really very Woman...not very empowering

Well went out came across this lovely local bird

She got quite impressive breast

Really proud and brown, not so reddish

Along mud path near lakes.

Giving pleasure,

Nature reminds us hope is closer...

In these times of underachievement

Nature whispers

Just wisdom and advice for each of you

Many need us to help support offer a smile

Invest in your walking

Reading

Listening

Less TV

More vinyl

 Stay warm

Stay healthy

Look out to others

Examine self

Encourage those struggle

Good news again this time on footie field....plus in wet fields

Hull City my home town team,produced ,so are saying,arguably their most complete performance of the season so far to beat  Accrington Stanley 3-0, courtesy of goals  Wilks, Whyte plus a Josh Magennis penalty.Taking over from Lincoln City at top.

Felt good listening enjoye d. Commentary on local radio.Not complete Te but heard enough

Ha d great day with. Matthew my son,rained but went out around muddy lakes. Orthanoligy watching ducks ,geese,magpies,starlings...sound of pipins also Robins.

Screates of seagulls,carrion crows loudness.

Rains came.

Had fun food and burgers....life at present but simple nature God given.

Asking myself what does the gospel the good news of Jesus really mean for myself.....

Gave me sense of being important to creator God

Felt that followed teachings of Jesus those Kingdom values

Well they made common sense 

It best way sense of being in this community of others trying to do the same thing

In regards to justice 

Better way of getting society where more are invited less were excluded

That was something l belong too

Then

Now

This faith in Jesus better for community for larger for myself as well

Got feeling that know was spirit of God...that sounds vain ..unlikely ...hard to accept

Enough for me to go on

That's me now still going on in that was

Then 

Now

Following teachings ..actions ..words ...of Jesus

That and more is my good news!

Police have been fining people for going on socially distanced walks and legally visiting relatives in care home. Well hard

Police are not social workers

Not pastoral

Not health workers

They are protectors 

Act against crime not be social engineering agents

Police have been fining people for going on socially distanced walks and legally visiting relatives in care homes. 

Where laws haven’t been broken, police have said such actions break the ‘spirit’ of lockdown. This is alarming, 

Watched with distress the local East Yorkshire police act brutal way against young teen watching Whale carcass on beach.

Not helpful only led to anger further future hostility .

Bullies acting well hard 

Not required........

My own search for wisdom.......like under cushions with remotes

  The mouthis a true index of character. It is through the mouth and eyes that all emotions are expressed. I did read once of a man whose nose quivered with rage, but it is not usual; I never heard of anyone whose chin did anything. It would be absurd to expect it to

.........A A Milne author of 'Winnie the pooh'....

Get lot of my wisdom from such source's...also

,Boy..the Mole,horse and the fox...

Comics

Vinyl

Lyrics

Bibles

Films

Odd TV programs may Question the truths

Faith is about wrestling with doudt overcoming fears

Here the day begin with weak sunset

 Here's to the babies in mothers arm's

Here's to the loved one's in another's care

Here to the street workers also youthies bit detached...

Here to you

Here to you my love

Let the day begin

Walk.....Breathe deep.....Thank God......your journey is special unique , you are unreapatable....you are

Emotional literacy of precious beautiful song lyrics...haunting at times

But darling there you go, slipping away into a state of grace
Granted, this world is not a perfect place
Still it's the world that I'm in
Here I am talking while 
You don't hear a word I say
Knowing you're watching me from far away
Somewhere that I've never been

Don't you see, you lived a different life than me
It don't mean you have to be afraid of how
We're not the same, don't leave me now

Love lyrics to songs ...pass open doorway..cafe front...car audio..friend says listen

Rare sometimes on the radio...hear something a simple but beautiful meaningful thing

Precious

Stays

Returns

 Becomes more buy song on album or cd ..listen further

Resonate deeper,share with another.. Still fond decades later.

Forget the song

Then

Passing another place you reminded hear it like its new

More precious

More beautiful

More depth

More meaningful

Lyrics to a song..precious..beautiful..sad even..emotional literacy of a forgotten melody

Not so idealistic living rural and on North coastal

Guess when in 1978l was told you won't like rurul my older friend was correct

Guess l thought being young that not connected was the way to be

I dreamed that rural was calm perhaps idiotic. Like l was confused

But that being young

Now l know

Limited services

Poorer connections

Views are narrow of  cohesion

 

I am a poet and l didn't know it....

Slow stop..take a deep breathe

Stand stock still

Take a reset

Here the day cherish the sight

Notice your life as its passing you by

If Done that.........now what

Start again

Begin to breathe

Enjoyed the moment

Plus the relief.

When they attacked the exampt l did not speak up...my trolley full so why should l care

When they came for those without masks l did not speak up 

I wear a mask so why should l care

No l did not speak up

I chose to live in fear

My trolley full so why should l care
 

We seam tobe moving against those who are wearing exemption orders Another example of attacking vulnerable seeking to justify a police state...it's shameful

We have become oppressive in our approach to those at risk in this crisis

Asking unlawful questions

Not following ethical conduct nor behaving with symphysis towards those who are ill

Poor health is not a choice

Discrimination allows others to be bully's

I fear those who make statements about others health conditions

Victims of ill health suffer already 

Why does our society have so little compassion

Oh yeah society is sick....

Swim deep you majastic creature in heavens Ocean

GOODBYE majestic awesome creature.silently disappear..

Not supposed to be this way

However for moment we experience

Something of your valuable life

Touched many 

Have whale of a time away from this place

Swim deep

 

Cannot always sail away on a ship called Dignity

I know we want dignify but sometimes we well 

Just do not get it

Been said that it's a ship we can sale away to the new shore

But it's not

Family...life...love...faith

It's hard journey undignified

Endings...story not what l would write for you

Someone began a book informative book..with these words....LIFE IS TOUGH

TRUTH is dignity

Often absent

Even in death

 

To much standing in line...to much power to Authority...too much yes you must

Need more why

More no l won't 

More lets try other path one not trodden so much

To much surrender to those who abused 

Lost community

Lost freedoms

Losing dignity

Lack cohesion 

Community which was undervalued

Look sure better way

Sure if consulted many like me would contribute much more

But this waiting in line for abusers and power moguls to act for vulnerable ...that unsure of with complete certainty.

Sometimes song or Dylan states in lyrics what going on in the world....

Feel like my soul has turned into steel

I've still got the scars that the sun didn't heal

There's not even room enough to be anywhere

It's not dark yet, but it's getting there."

From later day album....the journey carries on...from a 'pawn in the game' to 'forever young'..

To even this year...False prophet had line something like...

" not having time for people whose life's are Irrelevent " lyrics.

Speak the operatic drama of day to day life

Bee Gees love so right...the emotional literacy...capture heart,mind,feelings

Today these lines show up as observe America ...protest..pandamic..Whale dead on our beach..lack f community.

Hopelessness

Feel like my soul has turned into steel

........

"There's not even room enough to be anywhere

It's not dark yet, but it's getting there."

God allows us to psalm these moments...Bible of today there gospel truth being shared.

Hell on earth

Walked local streets looked up at curtains not reach

Overcrowded homes...

Heard children crying

Man swearing using C... And F...in word

Smell dope flooded prom where l sat

Began in my heart to grieve

Poorly heated houses

Poverty visible

Friend who got urines running down inside of his lower ground flat

10 months awaiting repair

Threats on the council estates where l visited

Dirty estate called Bransholme...felt like movie prison scene

Grieving...wrestled with worry plus concerns

Old person asked me for help...local services shut

Pandamic nothing hell people are living ....l grieve

Visit food bank soon check on volts further catch up.

Hell got a name it's called ...this locality.....its nearby another version

Something went wrong long before this pandamic.

BBC ..local media...newspaper ...journalisum ...Hell ain't even on the agenda

Professional poverty talkers all tooled up in bed.

Reaching for the top yeah reaching for the very top....all my life keep reaching up

"There's lots of hierarchies to attempt to climb & if you fail in one go try in another.. the point is, you're still trying to aim for the top & what the hell are you going to do if you don't try to aim for the top?

 Flap about uselessly & whine about your life? It's not helpful"

You'll catch me in 2021 still following Jesus,trying to be a kingdom person.

Watching old films on TV

Reading old books

Got new cloths

Money in bank

Enough worries

Still getting up at stupid o clock 

Feel bit poorly

Read old Diaries 

It's normal feel poorly this time of year

Normal and new year ....pretty OK

Praying a lot

Still following Jesus......

On the last year politics can l suggest ,'stop judgeing a book by its cover.' It seems no one told the identitarians. Weird cult of so last year 2020,They have spent much that period,judging and condemning people for their skin colour ,religion,networks,place f birth,imagined class ,also their sex. It's time to leave this skin-deep politics behind.

More individuality,more community,more dialogue.

Welcome 2021.....hope ..faith... conversations simple stuff required.

 Hope ... community...travel... conversation

Faith to grow..... vocational rehabilitation and

Tonnes of Love.

2021

Oh yeah soon trip to Maltese Islands

I live this joke called 2020

Can't touch

Cannot go out

Stay close

Keep apart

Dead whales

Daily excersise 

No Church

No pub 

Banned from travel

Stay away from coast

Don't meet up

Got no job

Got fewer friends

Apart at Christmass

Lot more deaths

Lot more sucides

Increased domestic violence 

Hull city relegated

Season ended

No live shows

Theatre's closed

Very few healed

Friends apart

People died

Pandamic arrived

Pandamic stayed

Pandamic stayed came back again

Brexit selected

Lords remained

Vote to leave settled 

I missed you more

I don't know why

I loved this joke called 2020

Are you awoke yet

300 years ago, slavery was acceptable. 40 years ago, gay marriage was unthinkable. 40 years from now, transgender re-alignment for kids might be a crime. Morality changes and one generation damns the other. Say how history works..

Sunday school and Christian ideals old hat

Racing at home could be a crime

Lockdown enters forth decade

Hey joking.........am l?

Whale pod deaths East Riding 07-18 morning update

UPDATE 7-18 council and (CISK )Marine specialist, going to perform otopsie ...they said in chat earlier simply looks like took wrong turn near Scotland food supply,(of squid )and low waters ,meant they could not survive.

Sad life simply hangs on a decision like that.

Nature call s all sorts of signals.

Allows us to ponder on life....l have been impressed by outpouring of sadness.

Sad but true this is rare Sight of such splendid hidden creature.

Many been touched by this image...despite how tuff it all appears.

Next Christmas no one looking back with joy at this Christmas...it won't be one singing about like last Christmas

Spent lot of time cooking and lineing up DC Character to do okie dokie....but nephew not happy...had cha cha slide for next dance..
 

Winter dead Whales on East riding coast.... outpouring sadness

So majestic

Silently leaving life

Left us sad deeply touched in awe but grief

 

The event of Yeshua’s birth took place on a warm night in central Israel, likely in the autumn. Miram, a young Jewish girl named Miriam gave birth to a son and the hope our people had carried for thousands of years was born. This Shabbat, we want to share that hope with you.

.. . .Whales pod died on our beach

Ice on ungritted roads

Honey Buzzerd flying low

No sun ....05 in car temperate

Delivering Christmass hampers on the actual day

Collected from our Church friends

People who received ......they shared wonderful present with two other homes

Day ended on dark county roads 

It had begun when day awoke

I stopped to walk on Seaside promenade before callin it a day...

Cleaner had opened the toilet so those out for a walk could use

So much kindness

Blessings

Many of my family working today

On the docks

In social care

Making PPE

True meaning of Christmass.........

Luv it.....

Too you at Christmas luv.noise.friendship.faith.music.peace

Dead whales on the beach

Blizzard snow cold winds

Shelves empty...money scares ...food enough..communication rare

Friendship still evident...luv absent...pandamic still on patrol 

2020

Well it's the shortest day of the longest most awful year we had experienced together

Community it's about belonging

On this the shortest day it been dark a while the mood of winter has captured my feelings.

Appear not tobe offering much grace

Nor do we l feel learning to be better as humans

We lost very things that make us human ..communication...touch..chats ...dialogue

What are we preparing for in the longest year end to this awfully long year

Long now...residing in this long winter

Even up on the snow drifts of Yorkshire at top peak it not as bitter as local community

Perhaps just in a 'too white undiverse community'...

But long now brings little evidence of hope.

Hope l give to you........faith mine drifts through this...felt prepared 

When possible engaged 

Met others

Witnessed kindness

Shared with others

Felt comfortable with being me...

Family and friends been close...nired me with own acts of concern and kindness.

Remain open.....God is close 

Someday we'll be back to being with God physically in the New Heavens and the New Earth -- where every space is a temple. But until then, we get to set up shop anywhere,practise being kingdom people ,that called worship. And I kinda like that about us.

Can you prepare for this period

 Time coming to end for

The year of challenge

Perhaps this was period

We should been prepared

For...place Faith found wanting

Or we knew that our faith develop in this period..have values we hold firmly to been relevent. How resilient 

Has our character proven? 

What am l holding dear and precious?

I salute youths......wonder how myself at young age would

survive!

Hope had enough during this period.... unsure.

The day given to us.....a gift....

 The day given to us nearly over

What value did we take with us

How can we share that with others

In what ways can l develop further

Shared some movie ideas

Looked at books

Got out old Film to watch

Understood others fears

Chatted with good folk

Inspired by individuals who have  given to others

Not a bad Day

Home loving man .......song currently playing in the Jukebox store in my head...don't feel weird telling you that.

In nature hear this voice it a reason for this belief l carry

only things l have ever known

I was lost and all alone but heard you callin me home.....callin me home...l hear you callin me home...the peace in my soul....faith it's grown... still l hear you callin me home..
 

She sits knitting a jumper

Waitin for the home loving man

To return to port

Tomorrow become today

I once knew someone who waited

They we even me mocked

In a port city we never knew

That love was everlasting

Love everlasting went out of fashion you see....during my time in this place..

Simple steps....get us through long Winter of now

Spent lot of time thinking here about advice  present... for two reasons

I - do not have IT at home address 

2- want to be accessible with comments

THANK YOU FOR ALL FEED BACK.

Listening to music yesterday early in the morning as often do these days. No longer watch much TV.

Simply listened to Deborah's theme from...Once upon a time in America ...

Several times allowed this to flood over me...read a little.

Odd had best nights sleeps in a while found real focus.

Like l say that's ODD bit.

Simple music

Please know that its not a sin to experience depression and anxiety.They are illnesses that can be treated. They are also liars that tell you youre not worthy of feeling better. But you are worthy. You are loved. You matter

Psalm 139 goes very deep into how unique,

How special

How beautiful we are

Even when being formed

Enjoy being U.

Return to this theme when writing great deal..something our society obsessed with Identification Culture ignores, 'trans community' shout loud fighting the beauty of a creator formed us?

Do not know what it feels like to be born confused, l have some symphony.

But do not agree with vast distorted numbers promoted by others.

What could be better then to recognise hand of creator in your life.

The journey that is U may it remain open and creative,full funny with friends a plenty

Let TV Entertain.

Allow music to Heal.

Comfort the memories

Settle down read a little.

Treat yourself to quiet period.

Reward yourself withChocolate. 

Hold loved ones in your mindl....even those gone beforehand..forgive first in your heart.

Carry no shame.

Steward own resources.

Draw a picture...on paper...let moment doing that enable you to drift away.

Walk keep healthy and fit.

Wrap up against The cold but still traverse out.

Remain in communication...get to the coast ,spend some time with others chatting.

Keep off social media as a routine, have days when not present there.

Value U.

Long winters journey takes me to the coast

2020 in pictures and word's

End of journey takes place at the coast

Perhaps it's true for people

Kinds feels like that

In this long winter of now

 A Year what a year challenge

Health.... communities...

Music...faith... Jesus....lost through Death family...young friends..you and l still not communicate as we know should... forgiveness...Life.

Was Gil Scott heron a racist because he used term Whitey....

No

Again no

He knew poverty...hard hard times...being from ghetto battled life troubles.

Drugs oppression...society..even own folks.

He had real issue with BLM mainly due to their racist views and the harsh treatment offered to those who did not agree with Marxist beliefs.

We miss arguments and essence if we dismiss others.

Check out poetry of Gil Scott heron...the revolution will not be televised...Winter in America.

Neither are those who booed the kneeling by football players racist.

They are allowed to boo

Choose not like or go along with the BLM gestures

They know poverty

They know innercitie

They do not agre with some issues.

5% V 95%

Loud actions are not reason enough to get many complying 

Even in winter sun shines...views are brilliant...Faith journey in cold,dark still evident

Winter a mood

Winter is cold

Winter is dark

Winter is more Lonlie 

Winter season...winter mood...winter place

We all my journey into ....even remain in for a while...

But Sunday coming in a hopeful way.

God bless you in winter of the long now

The winter mood in a winter seasons

 Was l only person on the seafront yesterday

Well it's bitter weather ways at present

No shops nor cafe open

No opportunity for dialogue

Seagulls left

I wondered in winter mood

Wrapped up...

But solitary fine... occasionally

Part of spiritual package we should all embrace

Part of the cognatic scaffolding put up to develop character.....

Every road try to take....

He  God can take your hand and prayed with me, then sometimes in an instant, a crowded train or your car becomes sacred space.

The seafront walk, stroll in the woods. Moment chatting with friend who shares this faith.

It is really a unigue thing that is for everyone.

The wrestling part of the journey, hands clenched in Anger, quiet deep reflections.

Listening ...watching nature.

Not knowing...waiting.

​

The notion that any place we occupy can become a sacred space feels rebellious.

Few odd views from narrative of coastal town they forgot to close down!

 

God bless you all....chilly empty feeling but get thru the journey carry onwards...again l say God bless you

 

              Every sea trying to cross...there noway without you

Cognitive Scaffolding

We need to get back into actual presence with each other

Construct build...better develop our relationship 

ZOOM not future

Again it diversity stops poorest taking part

Want to see in another's eyes reactions

Want to interrupt silence

Reflect and agree  

Test conflict

Resolve

Question

Actively listen

Hear completed sentences not interrupted high tec murmurings

What scaffolding absent from cognative space you inherit?

Never been monetary rich.....but don't feel rich in other ways either

Funny again car issues ...money

N a pandamic biggest issue money

Humble home ..work hard yet reality is money

NO

NO

I don't need any sending just sometimes all this you'll be rich in heaven 

Well honestly it's a cope out

I don't like or use the expression

Struggle with Lords words...ask in my name it will be given.

Not into prosperity gospel.......as l have said before,just a little Steak on a my plate.

Grumpy period over...

Better together in this horror show

 You are here in a horror show

Never expected to be

Funny well maybe not so funny ha ha

Pandamic you are suffering but still here

I am glad 

Learning together

Live better together

Discover new understanding together

Hopefully shine for others

Embrace others

Be strong for others

Faith will journey on

Whatever we were preparing for this is where we are

Not alone

Not In poor health

Not defeated

Miss lot of things but l am here like you doing OK...here now in pandemic we are surviving

Need operatic dramas of non verbal connections

Found that people need real......real...real

Connections

True that Social media serves a purpose...important vital,but not real

Need to see people

Sit together even in silence

Touch if Appropite!

But Church fails in my view when distant.

Finding also that when people do not connect...lose ability to chat in casual sense.

So let's get soon into the operatic dramas of non verbals and humanity of connecting in groups

Real

Real

Real soon

Keep sane . . . few tips

Music l return to this listen to old stuff

Where did you buy 

What where you doing

Who did you share this with the first time...

Read

Read

Differant stuff 

Switch off TV

Walk ...l go along sea front after tablets and first cuppa 

Walk near to end of my day...stay in touch connect

Sit and pray...just sit if you don't pray but want to Spiritualty connect with God

Just sit

Light a candle

Sit

Be aware of your thoughts...treasure the silence

Stay sane.....

Micro issue's can be crippling

Why would you gift a virus appears to be the key questions

Of the day on TV and radio programming. But my main worry is car maintenance again

Sometimes micro issue of enough money now crippling issue! Those are big problem that many face.

So read my lips....... everyday stuff has to be addressed.thats LIFE.

 

5% make the noise 95% have to comply

WThey say that if offended it's part of life

Develops your mind

Emotional responce to be offended

Increasingly in these mind health ID issues....people don't want offence

But 5% of social media are loud and try to prevent 95% have discourse

Twitter

Instagram

Facebook

Controllers of the social culture wars.....but human development further growth takes place

in disharmony...discussion...discord...leads to discovery

I may at times offend

I may be offended by you

But to create offence just to offend is not the same.

Like Islamic offence.....l would choose not to offend...but accept others may.

As a faith of Jesus the saviour follower....l get offended by name....Christ ..God 

being used as swear words.

But offence is allowed.

It's in our nature.

So is being kind

Being polite.

Being thoughtful.

Being offensive .....its part of the narrative.

What would be on your conversation menu

 Having a chat

Connecting

Talking

Laughing together with friends

Eating meal 

Argument's

Debates

Long lovely silence

Engagement

Attending conference staying in groups making those silly plans.

Missing Church but not enjoying Church by computer

Agree others are fine.....it's me....that's allowed.

Society that is ill.....not because of pandamic.

Barnardo’s, founded in 1866, large UK kids’ charity . Launched into racial politics, releasing White Privilege – A Guide for Parents. Yes it explains what white privilege is, how it manifests itself, how parents should approach racial issues,finally how should raise their children to be aware wokenisum issue.

The first thing that strikes you is that throughout the document, the ‘b’ in the word ‘Black’ is capitalised, and the ‘w’ in the word ‘white’ is not.

While these (professionalvulnerable agencies) parachute into work with poor kidz ,they always return after 4-30 early evening to own -Woke community's -to further develop ideas that only creat further disadvantage.

They are the privileged few, not poor impoverished White kidz nor community's they often come from.

But this is not what anyone cares about,BARNARDOS they just want to be seen to be 'vocal slaves' in the current echo chamber.

These are not correct concerns,they are concerns of elite.

This society is ill but got nothing to do with a pandamic.

Whoever suggested that buying a CD or a Book maybe DVD was not essential.

How do you suggest what essential or not!

I have limited IT access so the books,magazines,CDs etc are part of my connection and sanity.

To me you choose what classed as essential.

We have become real good at telling others 

What to do

What to have

Even what they say

Essential we discover freedom....

Who are we .........what our role and purpose

Are we developing as humans in this huge challange we are stranded in?

Many working hard to enable others

Social care workers funny title many not social workers not care workers

Not community development nor youth workers

Really only know 

We need them

Never been paid true value

Perhaps person Centered and small group workers will be championed more when we evaluate

this period.

Who do you want on conversation menu ...what topics?

 Been busy lately phone ,email, lot less us

Too much me 

Society which feels different searching for another normal

But we had one bite to change

Concerning that we appears not learnt much from 8 months lockdown

Either way we are one week into doing it again

Surprise that we not looking deeply into large stuff of 

Where we going

What does death look like?

Lie what does it mean ...in whole it's beautiful creative potential?

Who leads us?

Where we heading,?

How are you?

What do you want on a conversation menu?

Who do you want to sit chat with?
