Passion

Well, let me think about the meaning of passionate. Some see it as being related to love and romance or even a hedonistic form of romance. Others see it as some cause that you might have strong feelings about, such as global warming. Then, perhaps some simply see it as what your hobbies are. Someone … Continue reading Passion

Forever Autumn

So what’s my favourite season? Autumn! I like the fact that the seasons change more than anything. They even change in my Forza Horizon 4 game! All seasons have appealing and unappealing features. For whatever reason, I like autumn best. Maybe part of it is making a fresh start after the summer break and looking … Continue reading Forever Autumn

Count Your Blessings

I am assuming that “good” here means “happy” rather than “good” in the moral sense. If the latter, the short answer is given by Jesus: John 6:28-29Then they asked him, “What must we do to do the works God requires?” 29 Jesus answered, “The work of God is this: to believe in the one he has sent.” But … Continue reading Count Your Blessings

I Am With You Always

Throughout my career, at various points, I would have spent most of my day largely with one person. In later years, I worked from home. I might be “with someone” in the sense that they’d be the person I interacted with most. But, perhaps some would work with mainly one person throughout their whole lives, … Continue reading I Am With You Always

Ringo Presley

I’d only change my name if I became a rock star. I’d choose a memorable name. And in doing so, I’d pay tribute to Ringo Starr and Elvis Presley. So, my new name would be Ringo Presley 😀. When I was around 8 years old, I hated all hippies. I liked Elvis because I saw … Continue reading Ringo Presley

Chocolate That’s Free, Good for You, and Lasts Forever

My dream chocolate bar? Well, if it’s just one chocolate bar, I quite like Fruit and Nut. I suppose it would be fun to have different types of chocolate with different ingredients in each square, but then again, I can think of something better – if I’m allowed to dream. Let’s say that an angel … Continue reading Chocolate That’s Free, Good for You, and Lasts Forever

Dare to Be a Daniel

So, do I remember my favourite book from childhood? Not really, but the question provoked me to consider what books I read as a child. I do remember the Dandy and Beano annuals around the house. Mine was the Beano. Comics were a large part of our childhood. Whizzer and Chips became my favourite after … Continue reading Dare to Be a Daniel

Powerful Books

Over the years, I’ve read all sorts of books; particularly novels, technical, travel, music biographies and theological. The most impactful ones are related to my Christian faith. Reading the Bible goes without saying, and maybe you could see that as a collection of 66 books, so perhaps it doesn’t count. In recent years, I tend … Continue reading Powerful Books
