Next door....Wuthering Hieghts ?

https://www.facebook.com/permalink.php?story_fbid=1971775989737714&id=100007159965184

 

I have lived next door to Whernside Manor all my life and I am well aware of its folklore and legends which this link touches on. I also could tell you stories of haunted happenings that seem to have been part of the Wuthering Heights novel. This is all by the by as they say as what I really want to tell you is the fact that I stumbled upon this web page by mistake today. So whats so odd about this ?
   Now last night while driving home in the dark I saw a strange looking bird sat in the middle of the road. It was unlike any ive seen before as in it had a white breast and almost appeared to be marked with colours or the pattern of a Penguin I thought. Today I see with alarm that the author of the above piece has such an identical bird sat in her profile photo. Taxidermy is one of her hobbies it seems. I find this fact beyond coincidence and quite disturbing. I cannot explain this. A mind blowing synchronicty.

Grim humour

Here is another picture that moves me more than it should... is there is something even gleeful here ?

This picture captures so much about how Autumn feels. The colours of the sky are highly accurate, those specific blues and tints of pink in the evening clouds. Time is flying by in this painting and the darkness is not far off ...

Sunny.co.uk: "Unfortunate Breakdown" - Online Exclusive

This is quite an accurate depiction of trouble that once started gains momentum in a particular vein of your life. Ive seen it in action, and no matter what action you try and take, the only way forward is to ride it out. It will pass, but at what cost is the question.

Virgin Games - Invite Me In #LiveALittle

I may hold advertising in a very dim light nowadays but there are still some witty and amusing ones out there !

Twin Peaks - (2017) - Dr. AMP's Great American Radio Show

This surreal comedy piece contained in the new series of Twin Peaks is  strictly tongue in cheek but still captures the spirit of rage that todays world evokes in many. In fact I see myself a little here too.

They wallow in suffering....

A new picture is just emerging. For quite a while now the media have been in love with showing people taking on huge physical feats such as running multiple marathons back to back or other stupid extremes of exercise. These people are held up as examples to us all. They are presented as absolutes or even gods at the pinnacle on human evolution. Or do the media love the idea they are suffering ? Why would I say that ?

The second thing the media are in love with is illness. They revel in reporting anothers disease or terminal condition. It is reported again and again in a god like manner and in an absolute of positiveness oddly. Again a person in turmoil is presented as the ideal and let no man utter anything to the contrary. Just today there was a news report ( and when was this news ? ) that a man was having his 100th radiation session. It was reported in the same way as a man running a 100 marathons in a 100 days would have been presented.

The common denominator here is suffering. The ideal. The reason giver. The beacon we must all dance around. The media are a pleasantly smiling physco sugar coating our suffering. I find it hard to believe they do this unawares and I can accept the first idea is " inspirational " maybe, but they have strayed into spreading this outlook to those with medical problems . And are these people inspirational ? Well not to the majority who are reasonably healthy.....

 

Eurythmics - Sweet Dreams (Are Made Of This) (Official Video)

I recently conversed with a young woman who had decided to work part time as a carer for disadvantaged people. Her enthusiasm quickly waned as she saw how her patients viewed her, especially the older male ones. I shall say no more here.... Ideals rarely translate into satisfaction. The above song by the Eurythmics sums it all up. Everyone has an angle...
