No Choice – 16th March 2022

Every night I die
And every morning born again
I can’t pretend it’s easy
To get up and go again
There is little choice
Whether alone or together
Get up or give up
And close your eyes forever


When the power of love overcomes the love of power, the world will know peace.

I am so happy and grateful to be able to pick a bagful of mulberries to take to school to share.

The New Pleasure – 11th March 2022

There’s a devil on one shoulder
And an angel on the other
Whispering in opposites
Whether I should even bother
One looks upon this as virtue
The other as if it’s sin
I’ve got to brush them away
If I’m ever to begin


To assume you are below average is to admit you’re still learning. You focus on what you need to improve, not your past accomplishments.

I am so happy and grateful for our overabundance of mulberries. I picked a whole bowl yesterday and they’ve only just started (fruiting).
