A Bitch's Moods !

                                                             I just had a conversation with my dog , I asked her why she was acting the way she was . She's very willful you see , kinda does things without consulting or including me , now thats very inconsiderate , as she always gets invited to play and stuff , very inconsiderate                                                              To be honest , the conversation was a little one-sided , she can be so damn annoying like that . She starts her carry on , you know how they are , and then gives me the cold shoulder and won't talk . I am putting so much into this Dog/Human thing , and to be honest am not getting why she's being so quiet . She's on her last warning , she's been told , so she can't claim ignorance , no she's gonna have to stop getting into these moods . Someone , anyone , please help !

How things were meant to be !

                                                                I am thinking , maybe things aren't what they were supposed to be . Things weren't supposed to be so unpleasant and annoying , things were meant to be ,happy , tranquil , and above all   positive . I am really not getting this shit , kinda makes me sad !

Diving into Fantasy .

                                                                        I like things that you can lose yourself in , movies , music books . Its kinda nice to forget about reality and dive deep into something fantastic and mystical . I had that earlier this year with the Amazing Life of Pi . There was something special about that movie , the power struggle between the tiger and the young indian boy was breathtaking , but I digress !                                                                        While checking through old movies on IMDB I came accross a movie I had not heard of before , what was even more offputting was I recognised no one from the cast .Admittedly the movie was made in 2007 , and was directed by Tarsem Singh , who also directed The Cell with Jennifer Lopez (I liked that movie too ) . The name of this movie was called "The Fall", myself and Catherine went in to the movie minds open , knowing nothing about it other than it was a fantasy adventure !  

Right Next Door !

                                                              While reading today , there was an example of how the actions of people , be they givers or takers , made sense in a very strange way . So much so I felt I had to share ! This beautiful room , full of perfect lighting , food the quality never seen before , and one long table with people sitting opposite each other . There was only one problem , everyone had very long arms , and instead of hands , they had a knife and fork left and right . Now these arms were so long that they couldn't feed themselves , THIS WAS HELL ! (literally) .                                                               Next door , exact same room , same lighting ,food and beauty . The people in this room were smiling though , and had the very same long arms , with knife and fork just as in the other room . This time though , these people were feeding each other and making easy work of it . THIS WAS HEAVEN !                                      

Isn't Nature a Blast ?

                                                                 Yesterday was a very dry day , in my head I mean ,couldn't get myself motivated to blog . Today seems more positive , I was in the garden too yesterday so that kept me busy .                                                                  While cutting the bushes and grass , I had an encounter with a sweet heavily pregnant robin  redbreast  She was so so cheeky , I was kneeling on the ground with the mower beside me , she toured the garden , before ending up on the handles of the mower no more than 3 feet away . We stared at each other , there was no fear in her , it lasted for at least a minute !                                                                  She went on her merry way , and left me speechless ! Isn't nature a blast ?

Ice Bucket Heroes !

Image
                                                 Congratulations to all the ice bucket heroes who did their stuff all in the name of charity . Hell there were some real humdingers , and some downright dangerous . Hope you all came out unscathed .And money was made !                                                  Then you read about the actual percentage that goes to the charity , and it kinda makes you sick that some bastards out there in administration land get the biggest chunk out of hard worked nominations .You know who you are , you greedy PIGS !

What Makes You !

                                                        To all the good people , I wish you well . To all the assholes , its comin to get ya ! Lets hope a lot sooner than it normally takes .                                                         This should be the balance of things , the way things should turn out , the level that makes us have hope in ourselves . But all too often the reverse occurs , not because you deserve it , not because you've been bad but simply because "Shit Happens " . Don't make it more important than it actually is , its an inpermanence in your life , it will go away.                                                         Think positively , what happens infrequently , is not going to break you , in fact its WHAT MAKES YOU !

In Search of the Pure White Fleece !

Image
                                                          I am 18 years old , I need an Afghan coat , I just have to have one , and its 1971 . I am not going to get one in Dublin , am going to go to London and search for the PURE WHITE FLEECE . This coat is gonna make some impression when it gets here , this is my destiny .                                                           Am on the Portobello Road in London , its Saturday morning , and I see all kinds of coats that normally I would be interested in , but this is a special day , this is my day and I will not be defeated .                                                           In the distance , out of the corner of my eye , I see this WHITENESS beckoning me , calling me , intoxicating me , whispering to me , buy me , you know you want to . I try this beautiful whiteness on and am sold instantly .                                                           I get back to Dublin at 9 pm , enough time to wash and get my coat and

You are Happiness !

                                                         Come to me you light of life . Give me your spirit so I can follow you with purpose , enter my being and leave me breathless at your mere presence . You are the music in many souls , you are the waking of the day . You are beautiful and kind , sober and dizzy , you make flowers appear more beautiful , for once be my eyes . Set your tone for the day , and share it , share your positive energy and leave us all wonderstruck . You are Joy , you are life , YOU ARE HAPPINESS !

You're not Welcome here !

                                                         Take that misery , and shove it up your ass . Its not welcome here , and never will be . Its all consuming , and a bad bad way to start any day . Take your scratching , worming , influence and give it to someone who deserves it . You are the enemy of happiness , and a fool . You are the scourge of decent people , the death of others , and the nail in many an artists coffin . You are the darkness at the end of a promising existence , you drain many an innocent soul . You are destruction !

The Devil You Know !

Image
                                                              Have you ever wondered how countries , institutions , governments get people to vote in their favour when its blatantly  obvious that their policies , their agendas , their economic forecasts are unclear , are false , and most of the time LIES ? This my dear people is no accident , it is a definite policy of lets scare the shit out of them and we'll get them to agree to anything . The old FEAR FACTOR , has never failed , it brings up thoughts of well the devil you know , is better than the devil you don't know . This is why we are in so much shit at present , and have been for a long time .                                                              New governments are elected , but nine times out of ten its just another group of people wanting to line their pockets , promising the sun moon and stars . What do they deliver ? Nothing , absolutely nothing . Its a vicious circle , in every country there are always 2/3

Just Being !

Beauty !                                                        Its 6 am , the alarm sounds , time to rise to the day , time to get involved . Before you're out of the bed , what am I gonna wear today ? You're in the shower , whats for breakfast ? You have your breakfast , taking no care or time to enjoy . You're in your car on your way to work , what kinda  shit is the world gonna throw at me today ?                                                       The whole time this is happening , not a second has been given to just being , not a second has been taken to enjoy that shower , that breakfast or even the beauty of a warm sunshine brushing your skin as you worry to work ! Bet to a lot of people this is how it is , and how its been for a long time .                                                       Life's not being enjoyed , its being endured , its being WASTED ! I used to be that  same person , and if like me it pissed you off , well maybe it'll give yo

Apology Accepted ?

Image
                                                             Apologies for my lack of activity yesterday , just one of those days ! You wanna say something substantial , and with hidden meanings , and all that kinda stuff , and you dig deep and there's nothing there . Maybe its just your brain saying W.T.F. , take it easy and slow down , there is no race there is no time expected , I got the message though . Apology accepted ? Good !

Doing your own Shit !

Image
                                                                    Have you ever thought about names and their origins ? No me neither , but its the use of these names that at times can be very confusing ! Boy named Sue , you get the idea . Well I learned on Saturday night in the company of family & friends ,and even new friends that the use of a name can be very liberating .                                                                    A friend of my sons related a story to me about how and why he chose to , for a while anyway , to use the name D.J. Lisa ! This girl was annoying him during one of his gigs , so to shut her up he asked her , her name , she said Lisa . He promised her so that she would always be reminded of how annoying she was , he would use the name Lisa . He did use it , and it did piss her off .                                                                   So when you go to a gig , and a D.J IS DOING HIS SHIT , always remember , this is his shit , not

AN ASPARTAME FREE DAY !

                                                                     I hate labels , I hate people who label people , and most of all I hate the labeling on certain products that contain ASPARTAME !                                                                      Why do I hate ASPARTAME ? For one its toxic ,it accounts for at least 75% of the bad reactions to food additives reported to the FDA . There are many dangerous side effects to related to the consumption of ASPARTAME which include headaches/migraines , dizziness , depression , weight gain ,anxiety attacks , seizures and many others too !                                                                      There are certain other illnesses that can be worsened by its consumption also , m/s , parkinsons , epilepsy and lymphoma .                                                                      I am by no means a specialist on dietary supplements , nor am I a doctor , but the evidence is out there . Most fizzy drinks you

Le Chopper !

Image
                                                                 I noticed last evening while out for a well deserved smoke break , a bicycle with no crossbar , a beautiful bicycle ,orange in colour . While looking and admiring it , a lady who was in the same party as myself caught me in mid admiration , as she arrived for her breath of fresh air too . Beautiful bicycle she commented , I agreed , we both just looked , and enjoyed looking .                                                                 Do you remember the " Chopper " bikes she asked , I said I do , wondering where this was headed . Since I was a child I always loved those bikes , but because I was a girl , well to make a long story short , no one bought me one . I loved those " Choppers ", she said sadly .                                                                 It was my fiftieth birthday 3 years ago she related , I seen the new "Chopper" advertised , and it brought back old

Something To Remember !

Image
                                                                     Where do I start ? We were late going , so late arriving . Anyway it was the right of the birthday person to be late ! And fair play she didn't milk it , it was early though ! Koh , a beautiful Thai restaurant in the heart of Dublin was the venue , we had one of the nicest meals I've had in a long time , not including my own cooking . Great company made for a great evening .I haven't been to the centre of Dublin in years , I hardly recognised it , all laneways and alleyways it seemed..................alien somehow .                                                                        We left there half tennish , and proceeded to the surprise in the evening the birthday girl knew nothing about . We arrived in Pacino's in Suffolk street , nice surroundings and decor , went upstairs and she was greeted by her family and more friends . A genuine look of surprise and joy on her face , all the arrangement

Later Skater !

                                                            Have just made it home from last nights celebrations , am still kinda muzzy . We met some great people , with plenty of stories to tell , let me just breathe a little and will tell a little bit later ! But for the moment am in interval mode . Later Skater .

We are Warriors !

Image
                                                           We are men , we are not sensitive , we are not understanding of the female condition , we are warriors ! What total bullshit !                                                               You see thats the way we are perceived by women , and a lot of the time we fall into the trap of confirming it for them . We are our own worst enemies when it comes to the sensitive natures of our partners . That said , I am still learning , my wife is a great teacher in that respect , and when you get that look , YOU KNOW THE ONE , well you either ignore it at your peril or your brain translates what you know to be the safe option .                                                              Its just so pointless one of a pair saying , Do you wanna be right ? Or do you wanna be happy ? Thats an ultimatum , thats a I'm right and you're wrong . Lets just say the way round that scenario is quite simple , you are one , you are

Age is but a number !

                                                              Birthdays , they can be either celebratory or a real pain in the ass . Its my daughter in law's 40th today , I wonder how she's feeling ? Knowing her , she will enjoy it and have a ball . Happiest of birthdays Lisa ,like my wife , you are a great wife and mother , enjoy your day and may there be many many more ! Don't forget age is just a number !

Stand up , Take a Bow , You are SPECIAL !

                                                         Be brave , there's another day coming tomorrow . Its gonna be Saturday , a time to chill and wash away the punishment of the previous five days . Unless , unless you do something that is both enjoyable and rewarding .                                                          What you gonna be when you grow up? More importantly who are you gonna be when you grow up ? For many if not most  will never have the luxury of choice . And so this moulds and shapes the who are you gonna be .                                                           Imagine if everyone had the luxury of choice , the luxury of shaping their own future's , such a nice utopian idea . Not practical though !                                                           I don't think some man/woman is gonna wake up one morning and decide wow I wanna clean toilets for a living . I wanna empty bins from morning till night . I wanna go down some deep pit i

Enough is Never Enough !

                                                                  Its complicated ,its terribly terribly complicated , how seeing life as it is , you try and understand it . You've obviously asked the usual questions , why am I here , why wasn't I born rich instead of good looking ( a joke ) , but you get the message . And its never been such a profound question as it is today .                                                                    The world has it riches , some countries more than others and still enough is never enough ! Its the age old human position , if I have 5 I must have 10 . And then there's the poor , who have absolutely no say or opinion in the matter of wealth sharing . Why you may ask , well its quite simple IT DOESN'T EXIST !  There is no accounting for poverty , it is a non profit making industry , and so thats why you have organisations pleading with you and me to help the poor , help the sick , help the anybody . But some of these organisa

I Rest My Case !

                                                  In the words of top Australian catholic  cleric George Pell , if a truck driver picks up some lady , and proceeds to molest her , he thinks it very inappropriate because it is contrary to the policy , for the ownership ,the leadership of that company to be held responsible he said via a video link from Rome ! That sounds pretty innocuous , fairly said .                                                  But what if he compares that analogy to the abuse of children and argues the same rules should apply , and that the Church is not responsible for acts of paedophilia by its priests , bishops , cardinals , you get the picture . This is where George Pell is confirming himself to be completely out of touch with what is a single act of a lady being molested , and the savage abuse of children throughout the ages by scumbags hiding behind the cloth of the church .                                                  Lets be very clear on this , if

Working their Petals off

                                                            I just filled a vase with roses and flowers from my garden , the result , even in my biased opinion was spectacular ! I like my roses , I like looking at them , I like the strange feeling of having  nurtured them , having tended them , having loved them . They are so receptive to my urgings that they flower for me , just me nobody else . They are my babies , they grow , and how sad when they die , they just fall  apart to be replaced joyfully by their younger brothers and sisters . Such a beautiful cycle , though pretty soon   the roses will sleep for the winter . They deserve some rest , they've been working their petals off .                                                            

Just Think of Elvis Presley !

                                                                   I think the cherries will be better next year , you see the tree is getting bigger and stronger . Makes sense really , not something I'm used to .                                                                    What was it I was saying ? I remember now , your privacy and the lack of . Does it not do your head in when everybody wants your statistics , and am not talking about your body measurements ! You know , e/mail address , place of birth , age , all your relevant details . Maybe I'm just getting paranoid , but I do believe someone is watching us . Our every move , our every text , our every everything .                                                                    It reminds me of this guy who was about to depart from Glasgow on a trip to Miami . He was going there to party big time with his american friends . So while in the airport just before departure he twittered to his friends about what he w

                                                        Top of  the morning/afternoon to you all . Its Thursday and I can feel the LOVE ! Its everywhere , its in my bones its in my hair can feel that tingle ,you know the one ? Its so all consuming . Yeah thats a lot better than yesterday , morning anyway . Today I am positive , I have hoovered the downstairs , gotten rid of any hiding spiders so now the house is spider free ! I don't think so !                                                         So where was I ? Oh yes , my wife and I watched a very disturbing but ultimately educational movie last night . The Normal Heart , with Mark Ruffalo . Julia Roberts & Alfred Molina . It follows how New York City was taken over by the HIV/AIDS epidemic during the early 80's .Though I enjoyed Philadelphia , I just thought this was better in every way . Gave a better insight , was more informative and allowed you so much more  room for sympathy and compassion . Its harrowing in pa

                                                            Great dinner , great company , and great grandchildren .                                     Was not in the best today , time of the month ? No . You know how sometimes there's just no explanation for it . You wreck your brain trying to work out why you feel the way you do , but it just doesn't come . Or maybe there is no explanation !                                     Then you meet these two little puppies , my favourite words for my grandaughters , and somehow all is forgotten in an instant . Maybe its because they play with your hair ( the little bit I have , there's not much density there ) , or maybe you just go into childish mode . It works for me . Then we start screaming silently , and man is that noisy , silently noisy . We play whats that word without uttering a word , only gesturing if that helps .

Shame on you Mr. Norman !

                                                                        I once used to look forward to FILM 98/99/ etc. when a certain Barry Norman would introduce snippets from movies awaiting release . I always respected his views and thought them to be honest and informative . Even when he interviewed stars on his show he was forever the intelligent asker of pertinent questions . I liked him .                                                                         Today , he completely destroyed my regard for him professionally . Why would he say that added to Robin Williams addictions to drink & drugs , that he was also addicted to "SACCHARINE , TOOTH-ROTTING SENTIMENTALITY " ? THAT IN SOME OF HIS MOVIES HE WAS SPREAD SO THIN AS ALMOST TO MAKE HIM INVISIBLE .                                                                          Believe me there was nothing ever, ever invisible about Robin Williams he was and will be FOREVER OUT THERE , UNLIKE YOU , Mr. Norman who

I Don't see Anyone Laughing !

         Just had lunch , ahhhhhh sausage sandwiches with hp sauce , Maybe I was Just hungry !                                                      Got a line of washing out today , there's great drying out there .Its called working in harmony with yourself . My bath towel has come out so white , I've  been informed its due to the extra length of time the wash is on for by she who knows about these things . You try your best to be a domestic animal , and it works for me . Takes time but definitely worth the effort .                                                      Where was I ? Oh yes we were talking about the jungle out there , looking at it from my perspective , taking in to account age etc. I am glad I am at this  stage of my life and not starting out again . Thats frightening , even the thought of it makes me nervous . Thats why all you young parents out there , are to be commended for your efforts and most importantly your understanding of children who need so much d

Its a Jungle out There !

                                    Audrey Kathleen Ruston ................anybody ?                                                           Well if I mentioned Breakfast at Tiffanys , Roman Holiday , My Fair Lady , you'd know who she was wouldn't you ?                                                           Now there was an actress ! Petite , convincing and always intelligent !My own personal favourite was The Nun's Story with Peter Finch . These were movies that needed no sexual content , no innuendo just  a good clean story .                                                            Where have things gotten to ? Its a Jungle out there !

What does that mean ?

                          My wife has just invented a new word  BLOGBLOCK !                              Wonder what that means ? Is she trying to tell me something ?

Good night Hayley .

                                             John Mills , now there was an actor !                                             I was 10 years old , I was beginning to discover myself , and I fell in love !           I had been brought to the Metropole cinema in Dublin's O'Connell Street and seen my first screen love . The movie was the Parent Trap , and the actress was none other than John Mills daughter Hayley .To make it even better there were two Hayley's in the movie as she played twins . She was oscar material , and she looked good too .                                             I progressed , and went to other movies with Hayley in them , there was Pollyanna , Whistle down the Wind , In search of the Castaways and many more . She was awesome ! I then went to see The Moon Spinners and seen her have her first onscreen kiss with Peter McEnery , I was devastated , heartbroken . I was 12 years old .                                             The following year , I

Oh look is that my finger on the Floor ?

                                                 While in my late teens I had the opportunity to live in Denmark , nothing too exciting I decided to work in a factory making tin cans . You know the sort ? For spam and the like . Just another way for me  to see the world and work at the same time . It was in a town called Odense , not far from the German border . You see at the time we were the pioneers of the E.E.C. ( European Economic Community ) and as such the borders had been opened in all the countries to allow foreign workers . There were about thirty of us , all unknown to each other but eager to explore .                                                 On arrival we were given a four bedroom apartment to live in , so four complete strangers had suddenly become roomates . Strange idea thinking about it now , but it worked for us . In our apartment there was Joe from Bray , Larry and Tony from inner city Dublin and myself . Joe and I were compatible , but the other two , well th

I'm Taking Notice Now !

                                                  Monday , I have builders just outside my back garden building and the noise is a pain in the ass . They're building houses and it could mean our views of spectacular sunsets could be coming to an end ! What a bummer !                                                   Good Monday anyway , how are you all today ? Kinda strange that the summer is coming to an end , the evenings are getting shorter and its just getting a little bit nippy too ! The growth in my garden is also slowing down , and soon will finish . I suppose not  having to tend to it  as much will be welcome , but not having life in your garden is just ...........well lifeless .                                                  Have you ever examined a flower ? Any flower , its so alive so perfect so beautiful . I never was one for nature , but having grown stuff , flowers and bushes it just got to me . Maybe its the influence of that book about Buddha that I am reading t

Popular Ism's .

                                                       I have tried to understand a lot of ism's in my life and have found them all to be very very boring . You know the usual my ism is better than yours . My ism is truer and more believable than yours , and then there's the big money these people are making from people who can ill afford to contribute to their churches . Doesn't it just sicken you that no matter what you get yourself into , its always about money and their upkeep . So with all that in mind I have decided to try something different , well read about it anyway . Another ism you ask ? Why yes it is , am reading about the Buddha's guide to happiness .                                                         Will let you know how I get on , but there is no plate being sent around , there are no door to door envelopes being gathered and there is no Buddha bank that I'm aware of in Tibet or India . From my standpoint it appears that happiness is not to be

Picasso Style !

                                                                   Long time ago , while living in Switzerland and working in a well known hotel , I was fortunate to meet this incredible man . His name was Fernand Legros , and at the time I had no knowledge of who or what he was . He lived in a penthouse suite in Geneva with all the trappings of a superstar . I found out subsequently that he was the other half in a partnership that the authorities wanted to get hold off . The other half of this duo was a man named Elmyr De Hory , again someone I was not familiar with . I found out later that Elmyr was in fact the greatest art forger in the last  hundred years maybe ever !                                                                   How I got interested in Legros was easy , every day I would serve him dinner in his suite , but the thing that opened my eyes about him was this Pablo Picasso on his wall looking down on me . You see it was no ordinary Picasso , it was one of Elmyr'

The Unfillable Hole .

                                    Sunday morning ..................                       I remain totally committed to the eradication of low self esteem among individuals , who through no fault of their own seem to live life constantly having to explain their existence . How does it get to this ? How does a beautiful human being get to loathing themselves and their surroundings ? I know its a case of low confidence , how does that trait , that horrible feeling get there in the first place ? Could it be that we ourselves put an  individuals success ahead of their stability ? Its kinda ironic , that when the individual falls all we can do is say , hey I never seen that coming . Sure he never really spoke about that , but somehow he/she always looked lost .                     I write this knowing only recently that a beautiful human being died from depression . He always dealt with his demons publicly , and entertained us while going through this process. How beautiful it was to wa

Glad I shared

                              That's it for the today , I said more than I should have , but glad I shared .                                            Tomorrow is Sunday , shall I blog ?                                                              Good night & may your dreams be blissful .

The Little Box .

                                                     Treat yourself kindly , dust yourself down and let yourself breathe . These are the items in my drawer that attract my attention , they are hidden in that drawer and they shouldn't be . They are a means to exist , a means to excel and a reason to continue . You see not relating to cause pushes us in misdirection , and confuses the shit out of us . I don't honestly know where this is all coming from , but its both exciting and terrifying .                                                      I went to a shrink once , as I was having problems dealing with my oncoming redundancy . When you're in your fifties and your income is half decent , well the prospect of that no longer being there is a monster you don't want to face . Especially when you don't have the tools to deal with this monster . I digress , after ten or so minutes of my allotted sixty , unknowns to myself I started drifting away from the reason I went

The juice is Finally Loose !

                                                 Where am I going with this ? I haven't a clue , but to be honest you could be reading a lot less interesting stuff . Stuff they like to shove down our throats , the news you wanna hear man , the juice is on the loose ! Now , does it not piss you off when the world is going to shit and all they write about is the size of Kim Kardashians ass ? Or look how pale some other celebrity appears , she must be anorexic she's so f...... thin . Who cares ? But it sells magazines and books . How many biographies has Jordan had published ? And she is how old ? You get the message .                                                  Many people talk about a change they would like to see coming , everything from a no monetary society to everybody being equal . What they fail to understand is THERE IS NO MONEY IN IT ! Why would a huge financial institution like the WHO want a cure for anything ? Again THERE IS NO MONEY IN IT ! Tablets and medicine

Good Morning ...........Yeah Yeah Yeah !

                                   Wow its Saturday ,            No rest for the wicked blogger , and how are you today ? I am fine and you ? Well its good to have so much love about the place , it kinda makes you feel you want to get out of bed , if only to have breakfast and smoke your first cigarette of the day . Shame on you , polluting your lungs , get real they are MY LUNGS and if I want to pollute them with the the aroma of  exhaust fumes so be it . If you want to get through your day taking Xanax , off you go but be sure to enjoy ok ? No point taking these things if you're addicted to them and then it just becomes some stupid boring habit ....you know ?          So where is all this love emanating from ? Don't really know but can feel it all around me , and its sickening ! Am so used to hearing about people found in containers , on their way to some sex trade warehouse , people spying on one another , you know what I'm talking about . This love is so misplaced . W

When a pillow hits your head !

                                                         Just before the pillow hits my head , and I go to a place where dreams are ghosts and ghosts are dreams , I would like to leave you with something nice ( hopefully ).                                       When dreams become your only existence                                       And pain is just a numbing ache                                       Be sure about your life's persistence                                       Cause baby its no piece of cake                                       If eyes are all you look for pleasure                                       Be careful who your world admits                                       But love yourself and really treasure                                       That someone who in your world fits .                         Good night , and remember always, in the words of a very wise somebody .                               OPINIONS ARE LIKE ASSHOLES            

Poverty is an opportunity !

                                                           Lets get something straight , I am not lecturing , or preaching , or even trying to attract someone's attention , its just........, well I feel ......yeah thats it I FEEL ! Sometimes you're just numbed by stuff , the exposure of pain in the world , that now it seems we are becoming immune to other peoples suffering . Am I alone in this ?                                                            Let me tell you a story , wouldn't that be nice ?                                 ONCE UPON A TIME ,  There were ten people all of different denominations , and all given 100 dollars , as an exercise . Seventy per cent of these opted to enjoy their little gift . Twenty per cent opted to gamble their gift , losing of course ! But the one who was  left decided to lend his 100 dollars to a needy poor person at exorbitant interest rates.   You see this person had always been of the opinion , that where poverty lies , opportu

Do you know who I am ?

                                                  Do you know who I am ?  I hope not then you'll know more than me , and frankly thats a scary thought . Though if I am honest I don't really know many people who could say differently . I am the power of  me , I am the essence of trying to placate everyone , not a complaint just a fact ! With all that said , I am happy being this person , a change of attitude and persona would be just too much to consider a this stage of my life . How about you ?                                                   Peace is just a WORD !

Inspiration

                                       I have just finished my dinner , am in Ireland so wherever you are just apply the time difference , don't want you thinking I  am having dinner for breakfast .                                        I read recently , yesterday is but a ghost , tomorrow a dream , and today is the real deal . Never thought about it like that but it sure makes sense . We are so pre-occupied about the future and the past , we never give the present the care and attention it deserves . Its very simple , we lose our way ! W e want to be in control of our every move and deed that sometimes freeing ourselves from those restraints makes us physically sick .                                         These days , I no longer restrain myself , you see I've reached and passed the 60 mark , and I've found it very liberating . So much so , in relation to my time I have nothing but passion for my wife & family and my circle of CLOSE FRIENDS . Though finding out wh
