Interestingly it took me a while to remember it was a new month, but when I was at work yesterday, I was baffled as to how things weren’t recognised as being in December. Odd. Yet here we are a brand new month and the final month of the year 2017. Ahhhhh this is the time […]
Read More November Remembered: A Dryden UpdateThere’s a bit of a run going with the series of entries of recent weeks. That run will continue in the coming days. It’s worth just putting in a brief word here to give an update on how things are with me. First up, it’s worth thanking God that life for me at the moment […]
Read More Hello November – A Dryden UpdateAnd so you wait to see what she’ll do Is it sun or rain for you But it breaks your heart in two Cos you’ll find it’s October And she’s gone And she’s gone Summer’s gone Taking with her summer’s rays (Summer Soft by Stevie Wonder) Ahhhh the lyrics of one of my favourite songs.

Read More Into The Final Quarter – A Dryden UpdateThank you, Lord. July is over. I did not dislike July. Quite a number of beautiful things happened over the month. Flicking through the blogs written over the month, I like quite a lot of what I wrote. Yet July is still a wilderness month in the summer. Never been a big fan of the […]
Read More A New Month A New Season: Dryden UpdateI have not looked at the midpoint of the year so intently before. Time has tended to pass by and I have only tended to reflect and consider things at the year’s end. The reason why this is different, however, is probably down to a different intentionality to the year. So from the end of […]
Read More Working It Out – Dryden July UpdateThe last time I gave an update on things was back in the beginning of April. That feels like a long time ago. It’s just two months, but that has been a packed two months. You may have gathered that the vast majority of that time on this blog has been dedicated to continuing and […]
Read More June Check Up: A Dryden UpdateLooking back on February, it was a very good month indeed. One weekend I spent it with three brothers I don’t see that regularly at all. We met in Stratford-upon-Avon, where William Shakespeare was born … Shakespeare apparently wrote a couple of decent plays back in the day. He wasn’t there when we met, though, […]
Read More Farewell February, Marching OnJanuary is over. Thank God. I did not hate January. Lots of positive steps occurred in the month, developments in one or two pursuits I have had in mind. One of my favourites is coming across the Anchor app. It’s not about ships at sea, thankfully, it’s a brilliant device for conversations and audio snippets […]
Read More Dryden Update – February 2017What a difference a year makes. I was a very different person who wrote the first personal update on January 2nd 2016. Different in terms of my emotional wellbeing, my state of mind and what outlook I had on life. Today I type this in a better place. A better place in a lot of […]
Read More Dryden Update – January 2017December is usually a month of reflection. There was a great sense of that in looking back on the journey through the year. The decision to spend thirty days of Thanksgiving was also a great way to look back at the great things God has done. Yet December was lot more about the set up […]
