if you get stuck in a moment feeling like you can't get out of it .. I will not forsake





.The first step is to look around environment try to name five things that you can see around you. For instance, a HEDGE on the SIDE or a road marking. 
 

Understand next step is to notice two things that you can smell around you right now, 
for myself it was Pine from trees. Slight Air from North sea.

One thing that you are feeling in this moment......Awkward...alone ...cold...lost 
Oh sorry one thing OK go with Awkward.

Grounding techniques come in many different forms, there is 54321...but that pretty convoluted
l favour the 5-2-1 it simple enough to remember and really useful.
worth doing just as a Technic to ground your self,

                     if think your stuck in a moment that you feel cant get out of.


 



 

Now you're stuck in a moment  And you can't get out of it  I will not forsake

The colors that you bring
The nights you filled with fireworks
They left you with nothing
I am still enchanted
By the light you brought to me
I listen through your ears
Through your eyes I can see
You are such a fool
To worry like you do. 
I know it's tough
And you can never get enough
Of what you don't really need now

 Now you're stuck in a moment  And you can't get out of it  I will not forsake


Thank you for all your comments, for viewing, and messages sent....it simply my own efforts nothing special

We take the blame in failing to communicate a God of love

Batman and the Joker

About to be X-rayed by me

It's surprising that hero's of the up and coming 

Generation are hero's from

My childhoods journey

Less Sunday school attendance

Less Biblical guidence

For that WE should take the blame

That my generation own up


We failed to communicate God of love

Taking one Bible text to support the argument l hold often only hurts another....Bad Theology Damages and hurts others.

 

                                                     Bad Theology damages People

When a lot younger l did this.........

I was misguided and incorrect,

Start here .....This is a fact some of the most strident Atheists hold best Theology

They need, it have to disregard more then one faith

We all have a sense of God.

All of you included.

“People demand freedom of speech as a compensation for the freedom of thought which they seldom use.”...Kierkegaard.

When we take a Bible verse simply to support our argument, we misuse the context of the Bible.
Bad Theology damages People
It Damages others
Always l work hard and so should all of us....in which context was that written?
To whom and for what purpose was it spoken?
When it was written down...to whom and Why was it said.

 

 






Bad Theology hurts people.

we can all wish to turn back the rusty hands of time . . .

 Two old friends like bookends

on a Saturday as Man utd 

clash and loose to Hull City 2-0

tom Huddlestone in action against Paul Mcshane...

glory days

glory days

we can all wish to turn back the rusty hands of time . . . 


IF YOU COULD TURN BACK THE RUSTY HANDS OF TIME......

WHAT WOULD YOU DO.....?

WHAT WOULD YOU CHANGE . . .?

WHERE WOULD YOU GO...?

WHO WOULD YOU BE WITH . . .?

WHERE WAS THAT PLACE YOU RETURN TOO...?




"Me ....well it was a hot afternoon the last day in June and the sun was demon.....

 . . . .clouds were afraid one ten in the shade.."

Not fair but it's LIFE

The music has ended, the carousel's still
The horses in boxes with the big Ferris wheel
The canvass and glitter are safely on board
The trailers will soon hit the road

All the rides are over and done
It's late and no prizes are left to be won
The rides are closed, it's the end of the day
The horses are moving away

Yes, the fair's moving on
And I'll soon be gone
Remember the love that we had
Yes, the fair's moving on
But I won't leave you long
I'm coming back, so please, don't be sad

So sang Elvis Presley. Again the artificial leg of the local seaside town turned up £65 gets six teenagers a ride and a burger.

"Well as l said....you live and learn.

Experience of life cost sometimes it cost a lot...but that living.

Next time around another should foot the bill.

Till then long month ahead....

Amusement arcades with interesting names...FUN GALORE....etc call you by name to waste money. Vulgar noise's echo around windswept seafront PROMENADES.

Parents grad children rush them away to quieter zones?

Lot of money required for parents and families enjoying a stay-cation in UK.

Weather broken and it's turned chilly.

Chippys are filling up...back to Caravan for parksite entertainment.

But it's golden memories being built.

Perhaps coulering book and plastic toys to play while mum cooks on gas hod

Life .........LIFE.

KICKING OFF IN HULL

 

Sunderland's football clubs preparations for Friday evening's final pre-season friendly against Hull City have been hit a bout of gastroenteritis this has swept through the squad.


Despite this the `underfunded under resourced` and sure to be in a `relegation` battle Tigers still lost.

Black cats mauled the Tigers....Again we lose to Sunderland. 

Yes l know it was only a pre-season friendly BUT it still a lose.  

Also a little about how far we sunk as a former premier football team.

NOT SO STUNNING 

if I can try to make a factual statement based entirely on the `video`. Shown on papers `online` story, Perhaps hope won't be deleted by the woke COMMUNITY. 

THIS IS HOW IT LOOKS : A man was assaulted for expressing own opinion. i heard no saw any evidence that he was using 'hate speech'. then an assault took place.

 It feels like and appears to myself, that member of the LGBT community took the action.

 In addition he was subject to swearing and intimidating behaviour by, what appears to be, members of the LGBT community. But in reality was young gathered crowd.

The Christian Institute, in further issue related activity, has threatened the Government with judicial review if a proposed ban on so-called conversion therapy outlaws prayer which breaches the tenets of LGBT theology.

cancel culture awake today again

 
I am not Muslim, so to be reduced to a racial stereotype on my first week in a new city felt insulting. It was not an aggressive enough interaction for me to make a police complaint, but it left me feeling judged and hurt, and I knew she intended to do so.
The comment causing such  a response....

A DRUNK WOMAN ASKED HER BOYFRIEND NEAR ANOTHER WOMAN

She asked her partner if that building ` was a mosque.`


That picture of a younger couple what happened to them....where did you go....wonder where you are right now...somehow your here looking at this moment now....

But your not.

this is not yet a love story


 Tom Huddlestone’s experience will prove vital as his Hull City players prepare for life in the Championship.

Huddlestone has been training with his former club and played the first 45 minutes of Saturday’s 1-0 friendly win at Scunthorpe United.

The 34-year-old ex-Tiger has not played a competitive game since the City played Derby County at Pride Park last January.

There appears a lot of love for this player and his period with Hull City was fruitful one in Tigers history...like many people he not been able to ply his trade during recent Virus.

FUNNY, AND GREAT SENSE OF COMMUNITY, THE FEELINGS FOOTBALL SUPPORTERS EXPRESS FOR FORMER PLAYERS. ALSO GREAT ENCOURAGEMENT..ITS LOVE


Gather, chat, play, pray, listen, chill, and say thanks. Reconnect and rediscover.

Its stuff that no one wants and has no further value

 

Place your memory's in a box perhaps there a CD that none listen to anymore,

 but still there that track just melts your heart as you recall each word.

piece of clothing you wore never wanted to throw out lying there 

try it on ...now cant get it off its way to tight

perhaps if you loose some weight anyway torn it now taking it off

`those coulers never gonna be back in fashion`.

but when you wore a `younger man clothes,` she said looked real hot.

so it keeps.

A picture

A picture... its on top of CD box, (music from late eighties)....gosh what was you listening to then,

never gets played on the radio.

nothing good played on the Radio these days...Music...

That picture of a younger couple what happened to them....where did you go....wonder where you are right now...somehow your here looking at this moment now....But your not.

Cinema ticket to that film where main character was so like you then... Donnie Brasco.

Now its on golden oldies film channel often at 3 in the morning.

Its stuff that no one wants and has no further value ...Its also the sound of your heart breaking.













The film is loosely based on the true story of Pistone (Depp), an FBI undercover agent who infiltrated the Bonanno crime family in New York City during the 1970s, under the alias Donnie Brasco. Brasco maneuvers his way into the confidence of an aging Mafia hitman, Lefty Ruggiero (Pacino), who vouches for him

Stormy weather


 Was a hot afternoon ,73 in the shaded areas along lakeside

Geese with new births settled down to rest.

Same here but heavens opened and we get soaked

Last thing l needs to hear was this...

"We needed this"....

Life it's about getting caught in a storm....l guess this could be real deep ....but gotta change and get dry.

A picture postcard seaside town in 2000

 The Holderness coast, East Yorkshire has always been threatened and erosion been a feature of life here. Scientist stated since they were formed in last Ice Age, its soft mud-like clay cliffs from Flamborough Head down Spurn `Point/island` have been vulnerable to erosion, constant battle from the treacherous North Sea waves.

They called it......picture postcard....but it's nothing like that.


Cheap

Noisy

Ugly

Vulgar

Violent

Aggressive

Drug affected


Poverty held

Emotional literacy low

Alcohol abuse high

Intellectually very low

Poor business management


If that's picture of beauty in the coastal area presented to you....it fits.

This here this place ...as singer sang...

this is the seaside town,they forgot to close down.

Everyday feels like rainy Monday with the week ahead `blues`...

 Talking to yourself is part 

of winning at least one argument

Jul 23, 2021

The following is not easy


 Are we listening to each other enough

Actively listening

Silence 

Silent listening

So the other can breathe all emotional

Listening

Silence may scream

Still sit quietly .......just listen


Not that easy is it.....know l am not good as l talk a lot,best way of communicating

But the joys of listening to another is part of our healing..

Pastoral ministry requires lot of action.... words......but hidden in depths of true pastoral 💓 heart is requirement to listen.

Practice

Then keep getting practices of listening into care you provide.

Hillsong BBC TV channel  4 ....simply own thoughts...

Odd not a lot l was comfortable with, yet not lot uncomfortable with...But when l had issue it was complete infilling me with concern indeed fear.

The issue of abuse of children .....on its own simply too big issue to carry on with concept.

Another huge concern was around the issue of sexual misbehavior by youth pastor.

But other concerns were made clear to this viewer.

Greed and inability to act under clear authority, and Leadership.

Money...cash..inequality in volunteers being taken advantage of, while Leaders had such extravagant clothing and lifestyle choices.

Not uncommon but not often witnessed on this scale.

`Emotional literacy` among leadership when challenged also emotional play on converts guilt.

little this Pastor was comfortable with,reached in some instances the lost sheep.

some good episodes of pastoral care. But overall damage to Church.

The songs` pop in nature` and huge use of `nonlinear` examples,could do nothing to outweigh the damage coming to light.

Lot of this evident in mega Churches.

WHAT WAS I ON ABOUT EARLIER THIS WEEK AND NOT FITTING IN?

`I'm heading home again,
cause it seems I don't fit in.
And the world ain't all...I thought that it would be......`

 Doctor said this `pain not got too worse` over 5 years,

Further `you are coping`.

We know what its not, maybe try get through the pain threshold. 

Jul 20, 2021

sometimes we don`t fit in...among the more beautiful in that much nicer place....

Like You l also been in the place this singer explore, the emotional sense that` the something better`

in the` someplace better`

with those `oh so much nicer people`

among `more beautiful`

was not where l was home...nor did they want me to be.

Bay a picturesque old fishing village on the Coast of the North York Moors. It is a great place for adults and younger alike with a beautiful family friendly sandy beach, rock pools to explore ,ancient fossils to discover.  Walking through those narrow, cobbled streets and alleyways, Up a hell of a hill, maybe in your mind can imagine fishermen, smugglers, press gangs that walked these streets hundreds of years ago.Still ghosts walk waiting to accompany you.

I'm heading home again,
'cause it still seems I don't fit in.
And the world ain't all
I thought that it would be......

I'll never leave;

I belong in Rainbow Valley.

There's one who's always mine

down in my Rainbow Valley. . .

From this hill I'm looking down,
upon that friendly town.
There's a place I know
that's paradise to me.

Sometimes we have moved, not just geographical but in our hearts...we feel the searching is over, but someone once said ..."you can travel 3000 miles and still stay where you are" ...THEN life...ole way of being...issues you may brought with you..that desire changed...where you came from ...well its not to bad.

but honestly it is just LIFE...so l suppose be careful in your experimentation, wrestle with issue.

That place you want to go to...that place you feel want to live in,perhaps take a holiday there...in winter or the dark cold November. . .first....



This here this is me

This here looking for misplaced CD single presently misplaced

`Monie Love`....CD single from 1993

oh yeah...Memphis Belle..DVD

Got it out to watch

where the freck are they both?

Jul 19, 2021

We all talk deeply to ourselves.cognative narrative before we speak out loud

This lead us to experiment ,better engage with each other.

Dialogue goes internally before we speak into situations,

Some like me

Reflect longer

Just bit more deeper.

Discussion and little chat are never just that.

Sit in deep thought

That's this communication with ourselves.

Mind games, we all should engage deeper with  that person sat in quiet with while, supped on a cup of tea.

It's bit intermit ..for some it's awkward and a challenge.

Just life......while try to get up that great big hill called hope.







Talk .... experiment... experience..reflect. . .share....talk more...repeat.

Old bones aching


 Enjoying my ice-cream in the long afternoon sunshine

Need some alone time.

Find that need  period simple reflection.

Distaulagy with self . Before experience connection, further community with others.

The recent news plus the abandonment by our Government means need to examine my place in society.

Done my last task for this week. Prepared the vegetables placed them in slow cooker. Communicated with my friends sadly via social-media. Re...

MAYBE WE WON`T MEET AGAIN

. . . she got a postcard in the mail
That just said Heaven,with a picture of the ocean and the beach
The simple words he wrote her
Said he loved her
How he'd hold her if his arms would reach
Wish you were here, wish you could see this place
Wish you were near,Wish I could touch your face
The weather's nice, it's paradise
It's summertime all year and there's some folks we know
They say, "Hello, "
I miss you so, wish you were here"
