special places

Haven't reached the acclaims of fame yet
But today a child on a bus waved and waved and waved at me.

Language - the unspoken factor in the peace process

Has anyone else noticed?

I have recently become a serious fan of Hillary Clinton.
Like the President, Mrs Clinton takes great care and responsibility with every word:
considering the unspoken messages contained in every one.

It is an unfamiliar feeling to actually start believing that peace really does have a chance.
Hope has been truly delivered.

Silver linings

Wimbledon is just round the corner so I'm relieved to report that I found some new balls hidden in the cupboard under the stairs. Hurray! I needed them as things have been getting a little hairy recently.... but that's another story.

Blood tests today - in search of the reason for the absence of it.
Nurse Sylvia - I would recommend her - she took four phials and I hardly noticed the needle.

I realised today that it's fifteen months since I arrived in London.
But it's all change again as I'm moving soon.
New balls please!
What is really pleasing is that I thought I was terrified of yet more change,
but I think I'm actually looking forward to it.

I'm downsizing, and it feels good!
There are benefits to be had, you see.

My front garden is now Peckham Rye park.
I will no longer have a herd of elephants overhead.
And I have halved my monthly rental.
I even have a kitchen in my lounge!

A laughing buddha recently told me to keep unwrapping and I would find the silver lining.
...
Ooooo! How sparkly is that!

It's as easy as riding a bicycle, right?

Recently I’ve been practising riding my bike without holding the handle bars.
I keep trying to visualise everything in perfect balance.
Me and the bicycle in perfect harmony.
I get moments when everything is absolutely flowing.
When it feels so easy.
Yesterday by the time I left the park I found I was even singing.
You’re gonna spread your wings and reach for the skies!

This morning I couldn’t help but feel this is a bit like my life right now.
I'm trying to let go of the handle bars so that the Universe can decide where to take me.
