Life can get so overwhelming that from day to day it can appear just a burden. The mistakes of yesterday, those flaws that were displayed, the hurt caused. As well as problems that were not of your own making still to be resolved. Responsibilities in these circumstances just comes across so overbearing. I am so […]
Read More Thank God for … OpportunitiesI didn’t pay too much attention at school to how it works. I am not really a technical person, so when it comes to the technicalities of the stages of development that brings human beings into the world, it’s still a marvel to me. Indeed I was checking out the brilliant YouTube channel Crash Course […]
Read More Thank God for … ChildbirthThere’s no need to think about there being a reason for everything. I think getting hung up on the reason for anything and everything distracts from the things that matter. Identity is something I have got hung up on for years. One of the reassuring things about having good people in my life is they […]

Read More Thank God for … JokersI don’t keep a diary, but sometimes I make notes. As a result there are notes of things I have thought over the years. From time to time I enjoy reflecting on those words and where I was when I wrote them. There have been some really dark times in my life. Truly, deeply dark. […]
Read More Thank God for … Dark TimesThere is a big thing about vision in some circles. It revolves around having a bigger picture approach. That is something that has its merits. What I am particularly thankful for, however, is the capacity to see things as they really are. It’s easy to get that horribly wrong via the things we allow to […]
Read More Thank God for … VisionMy life is based on questions. The answers given to these questions are interesting, especially when they are investigated closely. So many based on assumptions rarely explored and hardly challenged. That’s why I love probing questions that challenge me to explore further and deeper into the issue. Sure I like answers as well as questions, […]
Read More Thank God for … QuestionsOK from the get go I am not one of those that subscribe to the view that life would be boring if we didn’t have failure, or mistakes or missteps. I am looking forward to perfection. I long for it. I have seen and experienced the consequences of failing. The hurt and devastation caused by […]
