At first we were hoping to go away for the weekend but for various reasons that was not on the cards. Then Mr E saw an advertisement for a sustainable living exhibition at the Forum in Norwich and he wanted to go there instead for his birthday day out.
This blog is just to say how simple [...]

Today
Posted in Atheism, Christianinty, Debate, God, Relationships, Thoughts, Uncategorized, tagged Funeral, Grief, Loss, Time. Seize moment on May 18, 2009 | 2 Comments »
Funerals can sometimes have a weird and unexpected effect upon me. Even though I knew little of the person whose funeral I attended today, it evoked a moist eye and reflective response. It brought back times of another funeral I attended about three years ago. This generated a huge grief response from me. Again, while I [...]
Why no Computer?

A quick post for me.
Wanted to see how it would feel like to be without the computer for 5 days, a week seemed too long, and also to do those tasks that I have been meaning to get done. Apart from 5 mins of e-mails that would be it. Planned to phone some long-distance friends, [...]

My husband and I always have mixed feelings about celebrating Valentines day. We hate the commercialism of the whole thing and the pressure that cards and flowers should be given, and any potential disappointment, if say a modest bunch of flowers were bought, instead of the most expensive ones on display.
Each year, men gather around the red [...]

Hello blogging world. How I have missed being here.
Just wanted to say a few words. I am now back to blogging after a period of absence caused by severe stressful events. However, I have learnt a lot from these, about myself and about what I need to do to become a more effective person, rather than [...]

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 [...]
Learning

The word learning will have many different meanings to people and how their own views, believes, perceptions and thoughts, when pondering upon its definition, will differ and perhaps extend to another word linked to learning, that being education. Education and learning for me, and to many other thinkers, philosophers, teachers and writers will be words viewed as a process entwined both together as well as separately. To be educated does not [...]
