This may come as a shock and a surprise to you, but I can often be found thinking about things. (Yeah, there you go for the shock of the day – take your time in recovering from that.) As in contemplating them and pondering and wondering. For example today I was minding my own business […]
Read More OriginsWhen I read back on some of the things I’ve said in this blog, I recognise that I can run the risk of sounding rather pompous, long-winded, pious and talking out of particular orifice not created for conversation. I really don’t take myself too seriously though, however ‘deep’ or ‘heavy’ some of these posts tend […]
Read More Being DadI do not believe everything I believed ten years, five years and even a year ago. There has been quite a few significant changes in what I believe. One thing I still believe is how important it is to be yourself. This is something I have continued to learn the hard way especially in the […]
Read More Matt Chandler On Being YourselfNovember. My kinda month. Although August to October hasn’t worked out as I’d like, I’m still very much grateful to God for the wonderful blessings that I’ve experienced in that time. I’m in a position now to blog more regularly now and I’m happier for that and it’s just in time for November. Have I […]
Read More Thank You For NovemberRight off the bat I have to admit that I’m being a bit naughty with the heading of this post. One thingthe last three months have taught me again and again is that it doesn’t matter how much I believe certain things are permanent and unmoveable, as long as I live there will be no […]
Read More Back For Good (No, Not A Take That Tribute)I believe I’ve mentioned the power of story before, but very recent events bring me back to it. In as much as I’ve been a part of a family before – after all I grew up with my brother, sister, mother and father – I’ve never been in this position in a family before, namely […]
Read More Returning to the Power of the StorySo yeah I’ve got the laptop back and it’s not as though there’s a drought of ideas or words to reignite the ol’ blogging quest and stuff. It’s just that at present getting things back in the order is taking a bit longer than expected because of the new context in which this blogging season […]
Read More Readjusting and RenegotiatingLast night I watched the Dr. Who at the Proms programme on BBC3 and wanted to share it with someone and I didn’t have anyone to share it with – you know what I mean? As in someone on the same wavelength as you for the same reason. That’s not always your wife – that’s […]
Read More I Miss You TooI’m not writing this LIVE. When it comes to a Friday evening, sometimes I just prefer to do what it says on the tin (my tin, not yours, it works for me, doesn’t have to for you) and just rest. It’s the end of a working week, it’s a time to relax in the knowledge […]
Read More Oh Yeah That Moving ThingPerspective is something that features quite regularly from time to time on this here blog, because I get the impression the perspective to a large degree determines the approach to situations in life. Two people can be going through the same thing but their perspective leads them to different attitudes, different responses, difference conversations and […]
