This storm is passing, LIFE going on, returning to some sense of normality.

 THIS HAS BEEN THE VIEW AS TRAVELLED THROUGH THE WIND, THROUGH THE RAIN, ETC...

This storm is passing, LIFE going on, returning to some sense of normality.

THE LOCAL PARK LOST FEW TREES BUT BEEN SPARED THE WORSE OF THE SITUATION.

Matty my son is housebound and in a wheel chair, so need to visit him. It was mad as hell windy, wet, raining, drains and rivers overflowing. BUT it needed to be a visit day.

Nurses, doctors, prescriptions not collected, only add up to pressure.

l got through the storm, and have settled into resting up today.

This storm is passing, LIFE going on, returning to some sense of normality.

This is the present situation, more settled weather.

less rain, everything returning to normality.

But in my mind, we get these type of storms.

At this time of year.

Historically.

Time for getting into the new scene.

Others are still experiencing emotional, plus chaotic traumatic, storms.

I am blessed, like you.

This storm is passing, LIFE going on, returning to some sense of normality.

This storm is passing, LIFE going on, returning to some sense of normality.

Sun going down and the season changing.

 Really enjoy conversation but especially like conversation with people who don't hold my view.

It's something missing more and more.

Old skills of chatting, conversely, being among Social narratives. Disappearing.

Indeed among educated it become something cancelled.

But also like to just listen. Often on weekly encounter 4 of us get together.

Talk therapy, it's just fun. But more swearing then l am comfortable with.

Clear one person not warm to individual. But we process chats.

Sit watch the tide, interact with others, enjoy odd cup of tea.

Disagree.

But it's essential to our routines.

For one of the group these interactions are often the only social engagement they experience.

May you talk, may you be listened too.

We sometimes sit, while the tide, nature, sun going down and the season changing. They all speak to each of us., 

But even when its within our experience, Even when we can perform support . we fail.

 Jew-hatred exists because evil exists. Because there are people who have, for all of human history, hated the Jews and sought to strike at them while they have been weak. Who have blamed the Jews for their own problems, who have crafted complex conspiracy theories about the supposed power of the Jews.

All that genuflecting to Holocaust Memorial Day. That was so easy wasn’t it? But being there when Jews really need you.

Sorry but again further again we see people protesting by some sticker and a add onto social media.

But proper investment of reading a book, Encounter of a person holding this faith, getting to understand the real issues, its all too difficult.

witnessed this across the Christian scene they appear either very pro-Palestine...or supportive of Israel.

When ask about the issues what internally they feel. why externality they have chosen to write this or write that view. No though process can be explained.

MEANWHILE IN HULL ONE LETTER FROM HELL, WE WORRY ABOUT WETHER OR NOT THESE DRINKING SEATS ARE PLACED IN THE CORRECT PLACE.

THEY HAVE BLOCKED OUT DISABLED PARKING.

WHICH NOT EVEN REGISTERED WITH THE COUNCIL.

If you are concerned about how we form a balance.

these topics illustrate the concern.

We should look out for those who are vulnerable.

We must examine our response to those in a bad position.

Its in our best interest to enable the best for those who are suffering.

But even when its within our experience, Even when we can perform support .

we fail.

Nation wide, local, internationally, we are failing.

Failing to deliver a proper response to those we must, further we should be supporting.

But we want to invest in self, may express a social media tick on the subject.

But we keep it all at a distance.

Someone sang a while ago...from a distance it all looks fine...

Its not we as humans are l think failing.

From a distance, you look like my friend
Even though we are at war
From a distance, I just cannot comprehend
What all this fighting's for

From a distance, there is harmony
And it echoes through the land
And it's the hope of hopes

Our musical reactions can be like our relationship reactions

 “Now what we’re seeing occurring in Gaza is extremely problematic — I’m very concerned about our (Christian) community. This war will have a big impact on the faithful there, and with the disorder of the situation, we don’t know where many are.”

“We have a little less than a thousand Christians in Gaza, but we don’t have any place (for them) to go,”

So exploring impact of listening to music, as perhaps a  conversation. The track of music is compelling, reference what you know, what you understand it but it also refers to what you do not grasp.

This is true even of new music, or genre perhaps don't automatically navigate towards , listen something internal reacts, otherwise it would not be interesting. 

Our musical reactions can be like our relationship reactions.

Shouldn't remain only with people we like. 

Should try navigating towards uncomfortable.

Then like music you explore, may like or even love the new scene.

It's not too far removed, spirit of meaning, new liking can pull you forward So like a visionary experience. Go on to share with others, l often find others gone before.

Have you not heard this track...Or that group..they were featured in this film...etc..

Hell what do l know.

LET ME KNOW .(E-MAIL)

BUT SORRY DONT MAKE RETURN CALLS.

Maybe you, like myself have friends in Syria, Israel, Lebanon.

Like myself, if follow world news, know by now that, 10 days ago on a on Saturday, Palestinian resistance groups in Gaza launched a surprise attack on Israel. Like myself, you may be watching events closely. Like myself you have been following the situation for many years.

Maybe you, like myself have friends in Syria, Israel, Lebanon.

SO AM TRYING JUST TO PRAY, NOT MAKE LOT OF COMMENT.

Hope in these hopeless, it may appear, days.

Written long while ago when the Author knew less then today, and more then he ever will again. This too will pass, love must win .

The love of music.

When I listened to music my whole being is engaged. Mind gets challenge as work out lyrics.
Body gets sense of wanting to move. Wholeness health, holistically l am improved. Interesting why a person or group Recorded track.
What's the style, all that stuff around this beat, those lyrics.
Even maybe a protest or Political literacy bring explored. Never just music. Brings healing, exposés my misgivings, lost love is by my side. Memory is relived.

Enjoyment strong emotions, feelings, connection. Never just music.
Conversation, act of rebellion, praise.
Never just a track of sound.
We need Music now, like many other times before.

In the Middle East life’s, places, people are in Ruins.

Ruins are good places to visit.
Once they were something else.
Entered ruins from hundreds of years ago. Go to ruins were not supposed to go. But something of a rebel in myself.

Love walking to ruins their odd sense in the air of adventure.
Been to ruins with others , who nearby changed their minds decided not to visit.
Me still going today enter.
Ruins come about due to neglect, ruins are places that bring back dreadful memories of a time before.
Ruins are places created by wars often….like recently in Syria.
In the Middle East life’s, places, people are in Ruins.
Palestine, Israel, the Gazza Strip is becoming a ruin right in front of our eyes.

Today in the hopelessness, met
old friend, Danny T not so well.
But gave me joy, we have got plans to meet up, share journeys we been on.
In the Hope you can, move away from the numbness many are feeling. The anguish felt towards those whose life's ruined.
Hope better will arrive, Hope different will return. 

Greatest hope that Love wins and soon evidence is clear.

In Gazza tonight, bomds fall down, prayers are muttered. Tears are rolling down people's eyes.

 The newspaper staff met because advertising down.

Staff will lose jobs, some may never work again.

Hard choices got to be made...

Youth centre closed,Kidz on streets, l pass, not in employment.

What do these young folk do now?

Hard choices are ones they gotta make.

To light up Wembley stadium to show soliderty with Israel.

Not going to be shown.

Hard choice but wrong choice was made.

In Gazza tonight, bomds fall down, prayers are muttered. Tears are rolling down people's eyes.

Warmongers gather, to send in Tanks and Weapons to kill others.

Hard choices still to be made.

A prophet from late Sixties said we should give PEACE a chance. We shot him.

All we are saying is give peace a chance.

Say it, sing it,dream it, like nothing else could work live for this.Want this with all your heart and mind.

Remind myself act of unkindness by me goes to prevent this, so renew yourself. Jion me and renew the call 

So all will realise...all we need to do is give PEACE a chance gotta get some help from man above.

GIVE PEACE A CHANCE

 

most underused word at present, WHY?

Hamas launched a surprise assault on Israel on Saturday morning, attacking towns and army bases in the south of the country.

In response, Israel launched airstrikes on Gaza, declaring a "complete siege" of the area.

"If you don't call it out for what it is, you have to ask yourself why is it that you treat what happens in Israel differently from any other country? This would not have been acceptable in the other atrocities that we've seen.

"Why in this conflict is it treated differently?"

While some confusion still is out there in not too deep social media.

I am forced to confront an issue.

Why is the LBQGBTX/ Community so evident in the support of the terrorist that attacked and lead these actions.

Have they any ...have they any even the slightest idea, what would happen to them in a Kalifate held by their Muslim brothers?

What would happen in an enclave governed by the ISIS movement, or the Taliban like say` Afghanistan 'or perhaps, Iran?

Stop the confusion, talk, listen, observe, witness, listen to other voices.

But get your facts stored. Don't just run with a crowd.

I have chosen like in the past to listen actively to `outsiders commentary`, been worthwhile...Tune into Al Jazeera news.

Feeling sad, confused disturded..

 Don't get confused there set two issues playing at present.

Hatred towards others (SIC), Israel people experiencing terror from Hamas.

The other issue.

The oppressor's terror, mistreatment and lack of humanity towards neighbourhood.

Gazza strip, Ledanese , Syria, Jordan, Beirut...plus.

This BBC reporter from Gaza is telling the *truth*. Israeli forces warn civilians to vacate areas they are about to hit, to save innocent lives. That is the difference between democratic Israel and the butchery of Hamas. All people of conscience know instinctively which is right.

But where can People trapped retreat too? Where can they flee. Terror brought by each group shows constant lack of justice, lack of mercy. Power is in the currency of Terror each plays.

First century Judisum

Been painful today listening too News.
Observing way many come out in total support, of neighbourhood bully. Secular state of Israel.
They were attacked yesterday.
But it's been arriving, they are not innocent party. Own harsh cruel, unnecessary treatment of locals in surrounding areas.
Caught up to them!
Does not excuse evil. But ''play in dirt get dirty."
Worse response been from leaders who throwing themselves into -'we Always stand by Israelites.-'
First century covenant understanding. Not love your enemies bring about justice show mercy, 1st Century Christianity.
You see faith means siding with outsiders.7 Decades of oppression brought about awfulness witnessed these last two days.
There is no easy understanding. But peace in middle East can only come about when we follow Kingdom teachings.
Begins with way we look after those in oppressed situations.

They will never, never be any peace

Until God is seated at the judgement table.

CHI-LITES ,70's soul group.

As Palestine begins fight back against oppressive secular state…

Peace cannot be maintained when people are oppressed cannot get daily tasks like work completed.
Peace cannot be guaranteed when living in squalid overcrowding.
Peace cannot be bought with difficulty’s settling family. 
50 plus years of oppressive behaviour, harsh treatment, countless deaths, cruelty .
Peace has to come for all, More especially the forgotten.
Our Peace has to be extended to those suffering and Our Peace must be there’s as promptly as we receive ours.
Otherwise it’s not Peace.

 

Great Kevin's think alike

 “I’m not as keen, I’ve got to be honest, and it may not be a view shared. I don’t like to listen to ladies talking about the England men’s team at the match because I don’t think it’s the same experience"

ITS THE WEEKEND SO LETS GET READY FOR THE WEE BIT OF SOCCER WORTH WATCHING, for Kevin W plus Kevin Keegan its without Women including Pundits. Playing, Commentating, or pretending to be Expert.

"I don’t think it’s quite the same. I don’t think it crosses over that much.” 

l am forced to ask. is it possible for a woman speak about the power, speed, ability, strength, required to compete in different game. Surly the male elite football game. Is a match ,those that compete, not same level as the women's league.

its become so biased that often in documentary’s, commentators, actual matches shown on TV, Only get more females then the male in the areas outlined.. Can Women understand different requirements at what is fundamentally better, higher, level.

Chosen not to view anymore certain programmes which gave me enjoyment..its not been too difficult. I don't count much so not going to be affecting that world.

Good to recognise that not only one.

l `don't count much`..welcome to a club that allows me to be a member...

Fact… there are two human sexes (no third gamete & humans still require only one of each, just like other mammals, to reproduce) but of course there are endless wonderful different personalities that don’t conform to todays version of femininity or masculinity

You remain precious.

Maybe l just 

Need to be having less time with older people.

Miss being with young.

That energy excitement appreciation of moments, joy of being in now

Heard it said, plus wrote it here.."We glorified the past, when the future Dead ahead"..

Takes another reading.

Those good old days, well weren't so great, these days challenge. But good things a plenty.

Climb is always difficult, steps one at time always required. The `narrow path` is often still, The one least taken.

You remain precious.

 

How you doing.... Again asking!

How might your encounters with another person affect your well being?

How does being in conversation with others affect how you feel about Yourself?

In the gatherings your attending, are such gatherings good for your Heart?

Does the answers you are giving, affect your emotional intelligence, does it improve.

If there is argument, discourses, disagreements. Are they bad for you or part of  development.

FANCY connecting sharing your answers!

We reimagine, we develop, we discover better or differently.

YOU CAN DECONSTRUCT and still love and follow Jesus.

YOU CAN DECONSTRUCT and still trust and believe the Bible contains truth.

YOU CAN DECONSTRUCT and still follow the creeds.

YOU CAN DECONSTRUCT and still have a thriving faith.

So joined this debate as Deconstruction in my Pastoral view, an issue keeps raising its head.

There are podcast even books.There are places to go with others who have Deconstructed.

Don't sound happyest places images very White,middle class eletist ,very  unsure if The persons gathering are people be too 'inspired'by either.

Kevin Waller, Youth Pastor  added these comments....

Don't we all deconstruct in many ways, music, humour, friendships, relationships, commitment to some issues.

We reimagine, we develop, we discover better or differently.

Its a journey.

Feel some who leave the Faith claiming `Deconstruction ',as the reason.

Unsure if get the nature, purpose of faith.

.

I believe always had the walking with God bit in my Life.

Always even in darkest moments, although few, Always tried talk with Jesus.

Believe found something among community of others, following Kingdom principles that maintain our Faith.

Humble and simple, always want to listen and remained interested in those outside of  my gathering.

Indeed that's remains my vocation 

Person centered approaches, at active listening level. Don't yield result's.

It's end of summer season
Spring tides (Lowest of time of Year)
Different, ending but new birth period in nature.

Tides lowest for the season. Interesting views, rocks, pond life.
Plus people, sharing getting wet, sand covered, wee bit chilly.
But warmth of good Human interaction shields each of us from slight discomforts.
Old Lady walks across promenade with her new pooch. LIFE better for her,
further she is out interacts with us all again.
Got bounce in her 'well being', from caring for another. It's a pet, but serves purpose of having reason to encounter others.
When l got bus last week, she waved .smiled as passed her when travel departed. But others in our locality, that work among, don't share a love of nature, dislike this time of year. Connecting don't express any given reason.
But they live often like this, after decades of life. Stick two fingers up when pass own neighbour. Hurl loud abuse. Complain, about environment but won't join the discussion group applying for funding.
Funding to improve the area, bring others together.
At Local school decades ago they were lead problem group. Some been in prison, all on benefit, meet same venue, share success at spinning wheels.(Gambling ).Begun to admit to me in 'walking therapy...`they have depression`.
Fraudulent activity part of the journey still make. Reluctant to explore deeper stuff.

"Person centered approaches, at active listening level. Don't yield result's".

My work here appears fruitless. But academically proved point.
People scared ,very reluctant, nor comfortable to engage.
Much less belong, Remain Level 1, that's non-disclosure Platform.

Some days l just feel the need to say stuff like this…todays it’s Prayer.

 We all pray

We all should talk with GOD.

We should all take time to reflect.

Dance like no one’s watching.

Wear whatever keeps you warm especially now it’s getting colder.

If don’t know what to say in Prayer the opposite image may help.

But whatever is on your heart is acceptable whoever is on your heart.

Wherever you are presently is acceptable.

However you value GOD is OK.

The great theologians are just people who practiced the presence of Praying. The most troubled individual will have in mind along with Hearts, desire to murmur the inner words.

That person humbly struggling to face the day, will know as the spirit aches he can communicate.

There are only those who are outcast on this journey.

The comfortable are doing the GOD business. Angels are communicating, longing, aching to intercede.

Open your hearts, free your mind. Pray aloud.Pray quietly. Pray in silence’s.

But have a talk with Jesus when your ready.

Northern guys ramblings, thoughts that escape!

 These are my stats of people viewing, this Northern guys ramblings and thoughts that escape a wild head.

Again not saying anything to informative just a humble `muthafrecker` from North east coast.
Mainly Faith fellowship music and cups of tea.

The leopard comes every night to meet the cow and the cow licks its head.

The man spoke with the previous owner of the cow and found out that the leopard's mother had died when it was only twenty days old and since then the cow had fed the leopard with her milk. Therefore, the leopard thinks that the cow is her mother and comes every night to see her.

Boy, could write on belonging to a Tribal gathering like this for weeks.
Got to be some sort of ,`Jesus people` meeting like this someplace.

Whatever you call it, enjoy some solidarity further reflection.

They have given us facts a storm is on the way.

The Seagulls know it, waves are aware. Battered down. But more efforts required in West of UK.

Been in country side  this day after taking car to garage.

Enjoyed the space to reflect. Not be influenced by TV voices, radio interviews , others comments.

Faith of others still evident in most rural areas.Church been serving community in last few hundred years.

Now placed there for once month gatherings.Perhaps when culture wars are over. It's previous value may be once again required.

Shriek of a kestrel, followed by its downward spiral to its unfortunate catch below, brought me back to the end of 30 minute space away.

Bus journey back to town, begin days chores. They have a name for this these days... Mindfulness...

My tride we practiced this all time call it prayer and praise.

Whatever you call it, enjoy some solidarity further reflection.

Detours and hazzerd make day long.

The weak but beautiful Autumn sun shone brightly, feeling blessed if somehow challenged.

Journey home brought long detours,further covaluted hazerds.

Darkness catches me out ,now late nights arrived.

Back to hospital visits tomorrow.
