Where the Hell Are You!
Michael Edwards said:
When working I was told by the Hospital Chaplain that I would at some time in my life find God or turn towards him. I nearly lost my dear Jeanne 6 years ago when she had a 1 in 5 chance of surviving radical cancer surgery - she is still with me and in total remission. I have just survived cardiac arrest only a few days ago. Despite all this I still have to experience the prophesy of the Chaplain. That is not to say that I don\'t recognise and sympathise with the position you are in Andy - My heart feels for you and this fine write puts it all in perspective.

BRIAN & ANGELA said:
O UNCLE ANDY : My Spanish Heart weeps for You and Joyce and I pray for you 24/7 for both RELEASE & PATIENCE ! When we rail at GOD he is never offended because it is a sign that we believe He can do a Miracle and He can lift us up. I CAN EMPATHISE : I have seen the scourge of DEMENTIA in my own Extended Family and some of my Clients : especially Home visits : some have DEMENTIA (or their Partner) and I experience their sorrow & anger first hand. Your devotion to JOYCE has been a great inspiration to BRIAN & I because neither of us know what we will have to face in 30 or 40 years time. Stay close to GOD and He will direct your paths. Rest assured that neither Brian or I are shocked or offended by you outburst : it just makes us love JOYCE & Yourself even more : AMEN
Prayers : Love & Blessings ANGELA & BRIAN 🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡
Love JOHNNY CASH : Great Poet & Singer : Great Humanitarian & Christian may he & June RIP : AMEN

Thinking of you both still. I struggle to not give some \'pat\' comment here.
Well, in my less troubled life than some folk, one main reason for missing church is likely to be the weather.
Some say they find comfort, etc in going, but for some it\'s the opposite.
I smile sweetly at times, and the usual \'I\'m OK\' if someone asks \'How are you?\' even if I\'m not OK.
See, now I will post yet another hymn-poem I suppose. I hope they are true of my faith, and not only \'pieces of poetry\'.

Great job. :-)

A fine write Gold. Doh! Wait until the trees are completely bare, then sweep up? Or have once-a-week tidy up?!
A friend is in a frenzy over a neighbour\'s eucalyptus tree. Branches overhang in his garden, and he as to keep sweeping up leaves. He says he will chop down that ***** tree!

One of my all time favourites, Miles interpretation of Autumn Leaves, surprisingly released on a Cannonball Adderley LP of the era. His interpretation of \'Summertime\' is also up there with my all time favourites.
Enjoyed reading your piece. Reminded me that on Monday i was in the park adjoining York Minster watching them gather the fallen leaves. In reflective mood, farewell to another season... contemplating the harshness of winter ahead.

Oh yes,there are those old tunes which bring back similar memories for me. Though seldom heard for fathers musical tastes were somewhat bizarre.

Better in a museum or someplace similar. I rather doubt any woman would wear it knowing its background. At this time of year, it makes me think of the \"Headless Horseman.\" :-)

THANKS UNCLE ANDY : As you know Im half SPANISH (Papa) and half ENGLISH (Mama) so the FRENCH are always the ENEMY : be it in RUGBY or FOOTBALL. The KIWIS try to subjugate their opponents with the HAKA : The WELSH with LAND of our FATHERS & The FRENCH with the MARSEILLAISE ! The UK National Anthem is beautiful but it is too effete to scare a Scarecrow ! Thanks for a touch of FRANKOPHILITY ! Being a LADY I adore Jewellery and Marie Antionettes Pearl & Diamond Pendant has great providence and elegance and is priceless. Natural Diamonds & Pearls are among the most elegant gemstones (an interest of Mine & Brians) and artificial ones (man made) lack integrity ! Thanks for your Picture Video & Poem : I trust you will enjoy my comment ! Blessings & Love to You & Your Lady : ANGELA 🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡

Didn\'t we share the cost of it, and pay half each? Did we add it to our museum collection? We\'re in the actual collection ourselves as exhibits. Doh!

Thanks UNCLE ANDY : Beautiful Music and an intriguing poem. I love ART and the inclusion of a GATE: DOOR : Curve in the PATH is a technique to draw the beholder into the Picture and away from the things of Time and Sense. We lose ourselves in the PICTURE. I love all Uncle Mikes : Poems & Pics. I loved ART & MUSIC (Keyboard) at School but my DAD believes Higher Education should be a MEAL TICKET so I studied Science & Physiotherapy instead : which I dont regret ! Please check my HEXAGON : thanks.
Blessings & Love to You & JOYCE :

In western mainstream religion the concept of reincarnation has been pushed away. Though it used to be a part of christian belief till around 900AD.
Why do i raise the subject here? Well i believe that once we pass on to the other place we will be reborn as something and live again rather than be forever in a \'paradise/heaven\'.
Most western minds have trouble with this concept because they place restrictions upon their outlook imagining that reborn means to be reborn human and also into the reality as we know it here on earth today..... both in contradiction to spirituality itself.

A fine write Gold. Erm, I discovered a locked gate round the corner. I jumped over it, and fell in a bog. I wondered why it said \'Keep gate closed - No entry\'. In 1066 that was. Lands were more marshy then, yes? Doh!
