A life affirming moment

 




I went for a bike ride along the canal to cheer myself up last week. I was on the look out for young swans as I watched last years grow throughout the year. I was eating and looking down at my phone, and when looking up again this was the wonderful sight I saw. They had just silently crept up on me. It was a profound moment that warmed my heart.

There is a war coming...

 Elon Musk cares more about UK citizens than all our politicians. Following the attempted beheading by stanley knife of an unfortunate man attacked by an African immigrant in Northern Ireland, all we want is someone in power to acknowledge there is a problem here, and take action.

Last week a trial of a Sikh who stabbed a white man to death and claimed he had been racially attacked came to ahead. He went to jail for murder after it was found he was the attacker. Police on the scene didnt believe the white guy when he said he had been stabbed and he died on the floor in hand cuffs. The police automatically believed the Sikh when he claimed racism.

Its getting worse and inaction is throwing fuel on the fire. 

God knows what Americans must think of us.

A politician only does the right thing when they absolutely have no other choice. Strange that.





This fire is hungry. If it could, it would devour all I own on this cold windy summer day.

Thought for the day - Fire does not play by the rules. Anything destructive doesn't either.
