Oh yes - wouldn\'t the world be a flat place without all the different cultures. Only thing I can say for the mish-mash though is that I see kids growing up together and not thinking twice about who is what color or whatever - and perhaps that is a good thing for the future. Will they kill each other less perhaps?

Also applies to politics and society. The country i grew up in where we played games which had roots hundreds of years old and the nation followed many historic traditions (look whats happened to sundays) has changed so very much. The boundaries, whatever, you perceive them to be, have been eroded.
Are you posting a \'wake up UK\' notice here?

The strength within this Lady oozes from your tribute to dignity Michael - so much to aim for when that time arrives for us all.

A great write with a beautiful painting, Michael!
As I was reading it, it reminded me of Monica Bellucci in the film āMalenaā when she walked through town with her head held up high! Enjoyed the read very much!

Beautifully written, Michael. But she does sound a little bit stuck up. Or maybe that is just her British side? :-)

Michael,
The title reminded me of Carl Sandburgās poem, āFogā. A required read in school!
Remembering his while reading yours, I see similarities and differences! Both excellent writes! Enjoyed the read!

FOG
BRIAN & ANGELA said:
THANKS ANDY ~ As you know the real pea soup fogs of the 19th (Orchi will remember those !) and the 20th C have largely been abated ! What I love are the MISTS you get in Snowdonia ~ Scotland (Scottish Mist !) and the Lake District ~ if you are on the Hills you have to be guided by the ubiquitous CAIRNS ! It is only when you are in a FOG or a MIST that you fully appreciate BROTHER SUN ! Love the wording of the poem very KEATSIAN ! Yours BRIAN

Well Michael I have seen every Sherlock Holmes movie and Jack the Ripper and they are always moving through the \"Impenetrable fog\"........ it\'s actually amazing that it was reversed! It must have been a bit frightening! Oh and loved the verse!

Beautiful writing again, Michael. Makes me remember the foggy days in November in Zuerich. Don\'t have much fog here in Hawaii. Sometimes just a little bit hanging in the valleys in early morning.

How often we pick up the signals missed by those involved who may be blinded by their love and devotion. Hope i read this convoluted tale correctly. Very subtle.
