OneVoiceIfreedom
Having deleted this post accidentally last week, let’s have a another try now.
This blog is to announce some important changes, for me anyway, as to how my posts will continue to be written and organised. Approx six months ago, I set up a new blog OnevoiceIfreedom to highlight, research and write about my deep interests in human rights, [...]

A mini-post for today.
Life generally feels so much better these days and I thought a few observations about this feeling would be worth posting this morning. Stress is something that has plagued me a lot in my life, that learning to handle it better did seem essential only a few weeks back. There is one thing [...]

The title question was raised by my daughter yesterday as we listened, with great sadness,about the very public terminal illness of Jade Goody.
It was a good opportunity for me to discuss with my 14 yr old girl the perils and tragedy of cervical cancer, what it is, and what can be done to help prevent it, with [...]

This came to me yesterday when I was out on a dog walk and I wanted to share it with you. It goes something like this. As I am writing here, more thoughts are feeding into this process.
Why do we do what we do?
We work hard to keep a roof over our head.
When we have [...]

October 31st is a day that everyone remembers. It is Halloween night and for us the anniversary of some friends who got married six weeks before we did. October 31st will also be significant for me and my other-half. It was the day that we were told my husband has a chronic, life- limiting condition of [...]

Yesterday I went to Cambridge.
There have been plenty of visits there, but today I thought about this trip differently. It has been a hard few weeks and for those of you who know me on Twitter, you will be aware that I am currently off work due to stress. Cambridge was a chill-out day, a de-stress day for me. I was in [...]

A rather frightening and sobering thought occurred to me late yesterday evening. It was the 29th August, a date that will always stick in my memory, etched into my being for as long as I dwell upon this earth.
On August 29th 1984, I met and walked into a relationship that was to have the most [...]

For those of you who think this blog is going to be about clothes and retail, then read no more. This blog concerns the drudge that many of us feel and face at some point in the week: the weekly food shop.
The grocery trawl, as I used to think of it, is the one job I could [...]
