There is doing a job because you have to and living a life because you love to. I really enjoy football. (Yeah it’s football, we call it football, you can call it soccer all you like, it is a game played with a ball predominantly moved by the foot and so football is a fitting […]
Read More A Practice That Portrays A PassionI have had my email account for nearly 15 years. Typing that makes me think. 15 years. Wowsers. People have been locked up for less. In any case, in that time I’ve picked up a few habits. One of those habits is to be really organised with the incoming emails. I like to subscribe to […]
Read More Delete ItI am not a subscriber to the sentiment that talk is cheap. I have a fair idea where it comes from. There’s a lot of talk about how bad something is without anything done about it. Politicians talk about what they will do to make things better. People vote for them and are disappointed to […]
Read More Challenging The Way Things ArePeople have been patient with me. Not everyone, obviously. Some just did not have the time to wait for me to get it. Some were frustrated that as they saw it, someone like me should have already been behaving and operating at the standard. I was not, though. Part of that was ongoing struggles with […]
Read More Patience – A Priceless GiftThere are some days. The truth of the matter is, it’s all about God. It is really all Him. Yet there are some days and indeed some weeks where there is a greater appreciation that it is not in my own strength that I can make it. The pressures can get a bit much and […]
Read More His Grace Will See You ThroughI love me some Columbo. I think he’s one of the best fictional detectives ever. So there’s this episode that features a professor getting killed remotely by two of his students and the two students look to be as ‘helpful’ as they can in the investigation with the Lieutenant. It’s fair to say they look […]
Read More Staying On The ScentI have no recollection the last time I was out for so long. It’s got to be years. Back in the day I would spend time away from blogging because I was moving home, or because I genuinely ran out of the rhythm and then spent a while away from blogging. That has been so […]
Read More When You’re Down and Out … with FluI appeared to have taken the suggestion too far. Surely there was no need to behave like this. It was not to the neglect of those around me, indeed it helped tremendously to converse with them. What it did do, however, was give what appeared to be a tunnel vision. I wasn’t carrying on the […]
Read More Resist By Focusing – Part 1Jesus is the Standard. Well duh, you might think. That’s, like, so obvious. Of course he’s the standard, it’s not going to be anyone else is it? Funny I should ask that on your behalf. Recently I was doing a test for … ahhhh well that would be telling, it was just a test in […]
Read More The StandardThere’s a taste I get in my mouth sometimes. Especially when I wake up having had a nap or been asleep. It’s not a pleasant taste in the mouth. So I’ve really appreciated the freshness of my breath when I brush my teeth and gargle it with water. I would even recommend some decent mouthwashes […]
