Love Life and Destiny

Last night, Steve my friend who is very graciously giving me support and protection at this difficult time in my life, suggested that we watch a DVD as a way to relax. Last weekend, he had attended a pow wow of native American Indians at Bedford and had been inspired to play his Native American flutes and take a greater interest in their culture. He selected Grey Owl from his home library, a movie from 1999 that was directed by Richard Attenborough, the film director who has made a number of films that feature famous people from history. You may remember that he directed Gandhi which portrayed the struggle of that great man in his quest for Indian Independence. Grey Owl was the Native American name for Archibald Stansfield Belaney, a man who was born English in that most English of towns, Hastings. Hastings, where William The Conqueror defeated the Saxon king Harold and established the Norman dynasty which changed history and the future of what was then a series of kingdoms in...

Inspiration From Strange Places. Have you ever wondered when an answer to a problem in your life comes from an unexpected place? Where did that solution come from? Meeting a person, a long lost friend, following up a hunch, getting a 'strange' email that when followed up provides a solution …  Perhaps, it was merely an insight into what is required to resolve a difficulty or, maybe, you received the full blown solution, there and then. A miracle. Sitting here this morning looking to the heavens for divine inspiration, on this most glorious of summer mornings here in Cambridgeshire, I thought 'Lets play some music!' Reaching over for my iPod , I felt that perhaps, I should just put it onto random and see where it took me. After all, I have over 6,500 tracks on the device there must be some latitude for synchronicity to play. For those of you who have been following my story, I have been severely challenged in the last few years both spiritually and materially. I h...

The Road Back To Hope The coming of my 62 nd birthday in just over a months time coincides with a revelation. Increasingly over the last five years, the realisation has dawned on me that my life is not going to pan out quite in the way that I had imagined. This is an uncomfortable truth to confront. However, it is true and a revelation born out of a situation that I have been doing my very best to avoid. The result of my avoiding tactics is this – the writing of a book. Whenever I have tried to procrastinate, ignore, or even make excuses about the 'book', the 'inevitable' has happened to me. Something would occur or someone would mention that I should write a book. The result of that would to provoke varying emotions from outright disgust with myself to indignation that I was being intellectually lazy! The book is one project that I have found great difficulty with. The book is about the lessons that I have learned in my life and how these may help others. You see...

Taking Directions I am stubborn. I am also slow to change direction if I feel that I have the right answer. A numerology report showed me that I usually try to justify my current, usually uncomfortable life situation, so that I can get my prejudices to 'fit' the facts. I was in Delhi late in 2009 and I was beginning to wish that I was neither in Delhi or in India. I was finding the poverty, pollution and the general wear and tear of everyday life degrading to my spirit. I wanted a sunnier, more fun filled life somewhere else and Bangkok would do just fine. In the September, I had met a young lady, View, in Bangkok. My clairvoyant work had shown her coming into my life, introduced by someone else first. 'A lady who looked Chinese but was not' came through in the message and that was absolutely correct. Jenny was Thai but performed in cabaret lip syncing Chinese in Thai shows that travelled eastern Asia. Jenny was View's best friend! Bangkok would be the next stop ...
