 Each and every day the current news (and past) has been, well horrible. to continue my theme of yesterday as Wendy says, why can’t we we all be nice to each other? Naive, hippy dippy, pathetic, all of the above? To quote Nick Lowe (as i have many times) “What’s wrong with a little peace love and understanding?” Human nature is mercurial, unpredictable, unstable and at times so mesmerisingly incomprehensible, that one wonders whether we are all of the same species? It seems no coincidence, that history shows, time and time again how one MAN tries to shape the world to their plan! I don’t need to list all the dictators who have caused so much death and destruction and I don’t need to cite the fanatics whose ideology, cannot be broken and in the name of their faith they subjugate their people and in particular women! 

It is bad enough that these things are going on and we can thank our lucky stars that we do not live in any of those places. It behoves me to point out that this country is no longer the one we understand or feel comfortable in. I understand that no government can control it all and there are outside forces, over which they have no control at all but this lot have mismanaged just about everything and anything they touch. I need not point out for the 1000th time how they have and continue to behave!

Frankly I am glad I have reached the last quarter of my life (not that there is a choice!) I not sure I would want to live long enough to see all the continued destruction and political upheaval that never seems to stop! I know there are good things going on however small, I know courage and bravery are performed everyday, I know there is goodness and kindness displayed. I can only hope that eventually they are the predominant human traits that prevail?

Stay well
