Escaping to Serenity
Having enjoyed a recent IP on films without naming them I enbarked upon this piece of personal reflection. Why do I watch the same film again and again? To be honest for a variety of reasons. These are but a few.

Looking Forwards - 1974
The last in a trilogy of years that shaped the very fabric of my life to date....I made the mistake of not proof reading before I posted. The orginal made perfect sense at 4 a.m.

I was truly moved. By the poem, by the tribute and the sincerity of the writing. I only wish I could write so beautifully. Well done.

So powerful and so frightening. I still have a fear of being lonely even with my family around me. Wonderful writing. I felt as if I was inside Tilly's head watching and sharing her observations and thoughts.

It was the 'life goes on...'
Posted on Wed, 10 Sep 2008
It was the 'life goes on...' part that got me. I hate it when someone comes out with that supposed well meaning phrase. It strikes me as the kind of thing someone says when it would have been better if they had kept their own counsel.

I don't know why, but I was taken back to images of the moonlight dancing on a lake at midnight. I love poems that take me to a personal, private memory and you beautiful poem did that. Loved it.

I was moved by this work. I realised as I read it, it could have been me that the voice was speaking to. I wasn't always a great partner and caused hurt in the past. Now, work like this reminds me I should have always been more sensitive,...

Ahh ! Fond memories of my teaching days. I left the bullshiters to it last year. The 'target setters' who are more bothered about looking good and their personal careers than those of the children. No wonder the kids do say 'f**k you!' and...
