I love walking on my hills whatever the weather. I love watching the turning of the seasons. Seeing the landscape change, as it is beginning to now, from vibrant greens to various shades of orange and brown. As the leaves come to the end of their short life and the trees let them go, they can fall to the ground and nourish saplings of the future. And I welcome the different weather conditions that the seasons bring. The photo was...
Today I spoke to the secondary pupils at Maple Hayes Hall Dyslexia School. The title of my talk was: 'It's not what happens but how we choose to respond that counts.' I wanted them to know that despite (and perhaps because) of their challenges with reading and writing etc they can still lead happy, loved and successful lives.

We have reached the edged of the map and there...
The further you travel this path, this journey back to Love and Truth the more paradoxical everything seems to become. My experience is that that the doorway Home is through the heart. I heard many years ago that the greatest journey that we shall ever make is the journey from the head to the heart! How true!: When we were innocent children we lived from our hearts and the world taught us that it was not correct or safe to do...
