Sheltered

I have no idea or clue as to what war is. 

Only a moron would suppose to understand war, unless they have 'been there' in a war zone . 

Cinema shall glorify heroism in war and project a jaunty camaraderie between fighters, yet I struggle to believe that war brings anything other than fear and death.

2022 - Do not expect anything nice to happen (unless it is by accident) Part #1

Rightio, I am baffled !  Utterly at a loss as to what is actually normalised and accepted, right now, in 2022. Modern times. The present. The here and now.  This exact moment in time.  Sadly still true when you read this and this was written before now (the now in which you find yourself reading this). Modern! Enlightened! Dare I say Woke? I just did! Woke. Some folks do not like Woke. Some folks also despise others based on their inherent, racist views. They are not Woke.  I do not think that I am Woke though and I am not a Nazi. I feel that I have always been tolerant, inclusive and inviting to everyone without the need for a label for it. That said, this here is not supposed to be about what Woke is!Sorry! So, here we are in 2022 (Friday 13th as it goes) and in this very moment we are all now fully up to speed with this being NOW!  This is why I find myself confused.  It is not just the many injustices right now, but the complete farcical natu...

God Save Over 300 Years Of Expensive Pointlessness - The British Monarchy

This is a family that exists in the UK. They have no political power (unlike an Absolute Monarch that has absolute autonomy over the laws and decrees).  In fact, the British Royal Family have had no actual ‘power’ to make laws/rule since 1649.   Let that sink in. 1649!  A mere 373 years of this family bloodline being of absolutely no significance to the Governance of the UK.    So what is the actual purpose of having a Monarchy in the UK?    I like it when people answer this by stating that TOURISM is MASSIVE due to the Monarchy. OK, so how many tourists have actually visited the UK and met one of the Monarchs? I shall make the guess of ‘none’ apart from a few that may have met a fiddly-prince in an imaginary encounter in a Pizza Express (imaginary as it exists only in his befuddled mind).🍕 So, the draw then is the traditions and the history of the Monarchy, dating back to when the Monarch’s ruled! (characters like King Henry VIII, and all that h...

Blame – The Cathartic Verb

Before beginning in earnest, I must admit that I am guilty of lambasting others and blaming them for events that I, myself, have also undertaken.  I admit that I can pass judgement on others whilst completely negating to remember,  in the moment,  that I too am guilty of the unfolding offence that has suddenly triggered my judgemental brain. Hypocritical and pious of me. Who should I blame for this?   Personal examples of me feeling aggrieved by the actions of others…   -Traffic! How I hate traffic (despite myself being a part of the traffic myself).   -Having to wait in a queue is an irritant. Even worse when the queue has formed before I merged myself into it. All of these people causing me to have to wait in line!   -Litter! Guilty. I do not make a habit of dropping litter. Actually, I am vehemently opposed to the dropping of litter. Have I done it though in my lifetime? Yes. Sorry.   -People that break speed limits whilst driving a vehicle. So...
