Busy time at Wilson Mansions but a week-end NOT away Last week-end That was great and the Saints won against Leeds Great game too Young heros x 17 - love it.
This week it was a privilege to attend the funeral of Maurice Turner.
Maurice was the Chairman at Romford YMCA when I began to work there. I remember Maurice and Denis Carnaby, CEO at the time, coming to visit me at The Mayflower Family Centre. I was Senior Youth Worker there working with a large team of Youth Workers.
Maurice was my Chairman during those early years. A great supportive loving gentle Christian human. I am eternally grateful to him.
Also met up with Mr Singh for a curry. What a great man of wisdom our meal and catchup LONG overdue.
We had only been sat down for a minute when he was speaking Nepalese to one waiter and soon speaking Bengali to another! (I only have two languages, English and Body!)
Mr Singh is a great fan of Mark Tulley. A great broadcaster and much of that about India Mr Singh's birth-land. I am second best, only to Mark Tulley - says my friend.
I shared my three current Challenges in life and Mr Singh shared his - heart rending stuff. (What are your three challenges at the moment?)
I cannot tell you lots of my goings on. Too sensitive and confidential. When wounded people share with me they trust me to hold confidentiality and I will do that to the end.
And yet I want to spill. Believe that by opening up we learn about ourselves and others learn from me and me from them. I do that having a curry and in group work too.
Just signed two contracts for two new communication tools due out at the end of the year. I love it.
At liesure and in travel I listen to music my first relaxing love.
I catch some late night TV too. Really surprised how good 'Six Feet Under' is. I have been catching some recorded episodes late at night. So full of emotion and rawness.
I keep dropping '5 WORDS to describe my life at the moment' on Facebook and Twitter. with the hope of stimulating others to do that I love how honest people can be with 5 words. (and you?)
