ANGELA & BRIAN said:
Thanks UNCLE ANDY for sharing a branch of your Family Tree ! SIBLINGS & PARENTS are all part of the Immediate Family we inherit ! I have BROTHER & SISTER both married with KIDS so my Parents dont hassle Angela & I for GRANDCHILDREN. Angela also has a Brother & Sister both of whom are married to Spaniards and now live in Spain ! Again they have provided Grandchildren for MAM & PAPA ! My Elder BROTHER KEN and I co-Schooled but he studied Physics (Electronics & Computing) because he thought Chemistry was too unpredictable ! He liked intellectual Sports like Chess - Scrabble ~ Bridge but also Cycling ! I was more conventional Football (Defence) Cricket (Keeper & Batsman) & Cros Country & distance Running. We are both good Swimmers ! Ken plays Piano but prefer Jazz to Classics - I play Guitar Classical & Folk - That and my A-Level in Spanish convinced PAPA to let ANGELA marry a GRINGO ! All my Family love HER - who wouldnt ! Angelas Family also love me ! Loved YES (before my TIME) and your trip down Memory Lane !
Blessings & Love to YOU & JOYCE
Love BRIAN & ANGELA XOXOX

Wow is an appropriate word to use here.. Yes being one of my fave bands... but more than that.. you have crafted a poem full of super sentiments and personal disclosure that I have a lump in my throat as I think about my own younger brother......... Neville

The ways brothers can take are varied but as long as love remains they are in safe places. A lovely read Andy of your two brotherly paths and where they have led.

The music was a bit hard core for first thing but you words were sublime this morning. Thank you for the journey, life is fun how it can switch!

Were we brothers in 1066? Standing together? Or falling apart, the moment I uttered the words...…! I mucked the whole thing up. Doh!

I see the blue sky where love is warm
Where tears have dried after the storm
Where pain has gone and left you meek
The sun has shone so you can speak
Breathtaking colours
Andy your words are an inspiration

Someone else reading your appraisal here could say that it is a rather subjective and revealing appraisal my friend.The words of a soul who\'s spirit is the light moving through dark times. The dark strengthening the perspective of the light. Light being the dominant in both the picture and yourself.

A fine write Gold lol. We had a \'Prayers for Healing\' service, but you wouldn\'t have known so. Just few mutterings from a printed sheet. No actual prayers with anyone in person. Well, hardly anyone there to start with, so......
The people from the Healing Guild who are also members of the congregation were not even there. The miracle would be if they had turned up! Doh!

Hello Goldfinch60,
That was a beautiful and poignant write.
I am finding that as a Christian the key is having a true personal relationship with God then everything else falls into place.
Keep writing FineB

Really good points made in your posting today dear Andy - We are all vessels containing spirit which mysterious as this is lets us, when we are quiet, into the secret of what our true Self really is.

Absolutely!!! You dont have to be a victim of some man made church/religion to know there is a \'god/force/enegy/overseer/guardians/positive force\' within and around us all.
Its awful to see christians claiming this is \'theirs\' as if it didn\'t exist until they created it.

Power and moving my friend! Only we know what\'s inside us and words just mess it up, but yours are very clear.
My Spirit is the force that created the Big Bang and that force, My Spirit, will be there to infinity and beyond.
This I will hang on my wall my friend

A fine write Gold. It is the person of the Holy Spirit living in hearts (and lives) of Christian believers, I believe. However great or small the flame may be, or great or small the flowing stream - both metaphors of the Holy Spirit. I would call Him (includes aspects of Her) God, though there are other gods (small g).
