oh the tangled web

My parents home has now been sold & soon enough I shall come into money. Then in less than two months I shall turn 64 years old. Now my dream has been to sail wide & live aboard a little ship, & it occurs to me that the time has come. 
I read recently that its the obstacles that are the journey. My my there are a few; the chosen boat is likely to dwell a great sea distance from my land home & there are no moorings available about here. Well there could be with work, but ... I believe that having a mooring will literally be having an anchor. So that shifting aboard on the move will be my impetus to continue moving about. This is how obstacles work; one can either work around them (make do), crumble before them (do nothing), or turn away (give up).

My great grandmother passed in midlife & her daughter, my grandmother, had several skin grafts on her nose to manage skin cancer.  Last month my younger brother Pete had a ...

mass political deception

On the day a gunman nicked ex president Trump's ear the world politcians decried violence as evil, undemocratic & so on, more than 39 people were killed in Palestine. These events highlight mass hypocrisy across the world with regards violence & race.  No one in the media industry will ever mention this hypocrisy.
