I used to believe in the christian faith and was in face a Chaplain at one point in my life preaching the christian faith but I never ever forced it down people throats as I have always believed and recognised that people have their own beliefs.

When my wife, Joyce, was taken by dementia I prayed and prayed to the christian god who Joyce had sung to a prayed to all her long life but it did not work and she passed away, more about that in a couple of days.

I then looked seriously at religion and came to the conclusion that organised religion is a farce and the lies were being spread. I actually came to this conclusion in church listening to the lies being spread, as I realised this and dismissed christianity from my life it was as though a weight had been lifted from me and I felt free once more.
I still believe there is a god but it is my god the one I believe in.

Dave Allen had it right when he ended his programmes with the words:

\"MAY YOUR GOD GO WITH YOU.\"

So much understanding of the past can be seen in the now.

As for the music, where did that time go it was amazing listening to that and you were right it needed listening to the end but even then it just faded out, great musician and great jazzer - another one on my list to look into.

yup, I understand - sometimes our differences seem insurmountable, especially since \'some\' people\'s answer to open dialogue that remotely threatens the feeble foundation they\'ve cocooned their life\'s upon: is to clasp their hands over their ears, glue tight their eyelids and dive into that pit of wilful ignorance, they\'ve cultivated as their go-to survival state...
but hey, who are we to judge? who said our answers will yield a tomorrow that\'s any better...
still, I\'m with you Dusk - at least in conversing we can better find a solution, as our alternative is digging ever-deeper in our carved-up trenches of society, flinging dirt at other\'s - while bathing daily: to rid ourselves of that taint of guilt, we bury too deep, to be witnessed by even those \'all knowing\' eyes in our reflections...
good write my friend, utilising that frustration to weave words of love and compassion, is the Artform within recycling, well executed!
(also like \'Nor ordinary love\' and \'Jezebel\' from Sade\'s cannon, to me she\'ll always be \'Pop music\'s\': Elizabeth Browning)

Neville said:

this is a splendid example of a perfectly pitched fairy-tale for both young uns and us growed ups alike ... I can see where the inspiration came from my friend and if I had any, I would not hesitate to read this to my grand children .......... in fact, I can imagine reading it to kids would be almost as much fun as hearing it through their ears .. if ya know what I mean ...

Great one, Dusk. Took me back (way back) to that time of innocence (yes - an extremely long time ago).
Beyond the material, the construction must have taken much effort - worthwhile though.
Needs to be in book form, read at bedtime to young \'uns.

Perfectly done for me, what an awesome trip of pure Innocence and love this comes from... I will definitely read again, part of me wants to pen my own then the other part say \"just read, you are home\"

Thank you my friend for the soulful words you always post!
