Travelled with Semtex on the train and London underground today.
I didn't tell anyone.
I don't suppose many are interested in the 1Xtra DJ called Semtex.

I have a range of feelings and I try, even strive, to tell you who I am.
When I am up I express the thrill of life.
When I am reflective I try to share.
When I am troubled - that too.

When I share deep sadness or share fragility
that does not mean I feel like that
all the time.

If I stop and think deeply about my issues
I feel that.
I appreciate it when people contact me with support.
Love it love it.

Tomorrow we are starting the hunt for a new home.
This one is due to end.
After twenty years - we are on the move.

We will need to move from our community
Church, friends, neighbours and ready access to travel to work.

I am still employed but uncertainty resides in the next month.
My freelance mission/work continues with passion and
new published work appears regularly on these pages.

He who is not busy being born
is busy just dying.

I am being reborn every day.
Sometimes that hurts,
childbirth hurts.
The joy is also wondrous beyond words.

Those who want to save their life
will lose it.
(Not my Quote)

Have you ever been given a gift
and left it unopened?

Have you noticed the gift
visibly hanging around
wrapped in nice glittery paper?

A more precious gift is hanging around
unopened and not used.
It is you.

That is a challenge to you.
That is a challenge to me.
Pipology tells me we are all like this.

Thank you Sid
for helping me to open up on this very day.
You have encouraged me to unwrap ...................
