For those of you who know me on Twitter, I am concerned and passionate about climate change and what is going to happen to our planet if we do not reverse the trend of consumption, increase in green house gases, which most of us have heard as carbon dioxide, and reduce our waste and “carbon foot print”. That means how much each [...]

Why I Enjoy Walking
Posted in Debate, Environment, Thoughts, Uncategorized, tagged Country, Dog, Enjoyment, Exercise, Fitness, Nature, Peace, Walking on August 19, 2009 | 4 Comments »
I enjoy walking and decided on my evening walk tonight to express a few thoughts as to why I enjoy this form of exercise. You know how you just do a thing sometimes, thinking you know why you enjoy it, but have never sat down to fully explain why to yourself, let alone to anybody else.
That’s what I [...]

I was looking foreword to lighting my candles this evening to celebrate and recognise Earth hour at 20.30. The glass bowl for floating candles, not used for awhile, had centre stage on our dinning table this evening. At 20.30 I looked out of my window to see if people in our neighbourhood were observing this hour [...]

September has always been one of my favourite months of the year- the second favourite being May. For some, this month may herald a time of fading hopes of a summer that never was and the chill of the fresh late summer, early autumn air which feels cold, as winter will soon be upon us once more.

Today, I want to write a little about cleaning. Boring you say! Yes, cleaning is tedious, repetitive and time consuming. Like relationships you just have to keep scrubbing away hoping the dirt will come off eventually. so today, I am talking about cleaning, but then again I am not talking about cleaning. After writing Reflections [...]

My friends know me for my eco stance and concern over the environment, so I should welcome the Church of England taking the moral line over this issue; calling on us to have a duty to protect and help save our planet. After all, as Christians, surely we are custodians over God’s wonderful planet and living creation-if [...]

This is the first of two blogs concerning the plight of man’s best friend. The other when finished, will sit along side this and will focus on a very alarming news report. For now this is today’s tale.
Today I visited a prison for dogs. Yes, that’s right a dog’s prison and battery farm all in one. We [...]

How can we capture that feeling called happiness?
Like a flower’s seed head it can be blown away so easily by the wind.
One moment it is there, the next it has vanished into thin air.
The clouds of pain can gather quickly with the rising storm,
to dampen our hearts and extinguish that sweet feeling of pleasure.
How then do [...]
