Hey beautiful human
do you feel beautiful right now?
I am not meaning
the 'mirror beautiful' you
but
your soul?
The heart of you?
The human inside -
maybe unknown to no-one other than you?
Maybe not you - even?
Just checking.
Reminder
you are beautiful.
When was the last time someone told you
'you are beautiful'?
I am saying it ................. now
and I mean it ...............
/
I am feeling beautiful -
not that I think of that -
but asking you
reminds me!

I have felt a disturbed human this week.
The UK election has done it.
Not their fault,
it is my connection emotionally with it.
It is not a self interest thing.
I am concerned about the fragile ones.
THAT has churned my soul this week.
It is still going on because it is not over yet.

This week I learned what 'prose' is!
It was said that I write in 'prose and poetry'!
As for me - I just write.
Let it come out of the soul.
/
Dictionary search re prose
it seems I write 'poetry-prose'.
I didn't know that!

At Greenbelt tomorrow.
Trustees meeting and I will love it.
We are responsible for GB
so required to see big picture and
vision beyond visibility.

Quins Rugby League, at the Twickenham Stoop.
We win = we go on to next round.
We lose = zilch.

I will be worried again.
This week - lots of worry.
There is a game on BBC TV both
Saturday and Sunday.
This game is important to me.
And we don't often play in London town.

Last week at a gig in Birmingham
I met a stranger - who was Peter Smith - Rev!
Then, I suddenly knew him because he worked with me
some 40 years ago - no-wonder he his face was a stranger.
It was great to see him.
He is now an Inner City vicar doing great things.
He was a young energetic member of our team
doing some great work with young people on the edge.
Toughest of times for all of us.
He was a group worker with Pete Oliver, in a group of young offenders.
eight boys - a great youth work model using boundary management.
Futuristic at it's time - guess still is ........
I was amazed to see him looking so old - how come?
He grows older - when I look just the same?

I am inspired by,
