A fine write Gold. I saw a Vicar and a Curate serving during an informal. service (no dog collars either, though that\'s neither here nor there!).
The Vicar went to comfort someone, and sat with a grown man who was weeping. Then another week the Curate helped, as she directed people to spare seats - a full church!
I went and told the Vicar afterwards how sensitive and thoughtful I considered it.
A former Vicar was bit of a stuff-shirt, though his Curate would also help in those ways.

Life pulls and tugs at us in all different directions every day. Your priorities are the right ones sir. Loved ones are the most treasured of all the gifts this life brings.
Soon you will once again walk your river and talk with the creator, refreshing your batteries and reinforcing your positivity.

THANKS FOR THE VIDEO ~ UNCLE ANDY ~ WE BOTH ENJOYED ITS COOLNESS ! Careless Love the concept of LOVE for many in the 21st C ! BUT never for JOYCE & Yourself who are a great example of UNCONDITIONAL LOVE whatever the circumstances ~ thanks for caring & sharing. We suffer because we are separated for a Season by 11k miles (and £1500 !) and I know when ANGELA returns to Essex she will be changed ~ NZ does that to you ! However it will be a change for the better ! Angela works with Headway (as a Physio) and she knows a Young Man can go out on his Motorbike and return helpless ~ but his Young Wife loves HIM just the same as before ~ in fact with UNCONDITIONAL LOVE even more. God has given you a solemn responsibility to care for JOYCE and we pray for strength & understanding. ANGELA & I have Unconditional Love because you never know ~ what a day may bring forth ! Every Blessing to You & Joyce in your daily walk with God ~ LOVE BRIAN 😎 & ANGELA 🧡🧡

Andy,

You write such truths! At times it seems like this sphere we live in will implode...
fortunately our Spirit will take flight!

I enjoyed the video of David Bowie! One of my favorites!

My love to Joyce and you!

Fear of Flying.
w c said:

Hi, Goldfinch. I used to have a fear of flying, but after i did fly a time or two my fear went away. I was also helped in learning that automobiles were much more dangerous. For some reason that doesn\'t scare me.

FineB said:

Hello Goldfinch60.

An excellent poem. Apparently the first lady of soul, the late Aretha Franklin was terrified of flying.
Keep writing

A fine write Gold. Can you recall any flying in 1066? Did spy planes scan the land for the battle plans of the enemy?

BRIAN & ANGELA said:

Thanks UNCLE ANDY ~ I read that and I thought of me cleaning the leaves form my Mum\'s pond ~ with a NET which was invented 1000\'s of years ago ! New Zealand is much cleaner than the UK due to the fact that they are very conservation minded but also the fact that NZ has the same area as the UK but 15 times fewer |PEOPLE ~ PEOPLE cause LITTER ! I started work @ 16 and it annoys me that there are 100\'s of ABLE BODIED scroungers on BENEFITS ~ which the Streets are unswept and the Fruit unpicked ~ Its a MAD MAD MAD World ! Love BOWIE a true GENIUS ~ sadly missed ! Blessings BRIAN ~ ANGELA sends Her Love to JOYCE XXXX

orchidee said:

Was that us two? Did we forget to empty the dustbins when we were on the moon? I recall, as you wrote, of us meeting the earthlings who landed there in 1969. But meanwhile - I dread visiting some public toilets. It can be a horror show and assault the senses. it\'s too much info to give more detail!

dusk arising said:

Wet and windy i expect you will awaken to on Thursday.
Who cares about the weather here, at least we have shelter. Poor devils around the planet are suffering all sorts of perils. What do you reckon is wrong with our weather Goldfinch? Will it improve post brexit?

If you have the perception of natural thought enabling you not to be too concerned about what each day is going to be like. The beauty of life shines through this poem and I love the way you have expressed your feeling for every day which in which you believe to be a good day.

Every day a bonus - always plan something - never say at the start of each day \'What shall I do today?\' you should have planned it out to make the most of it.

orchidee said:

A good write Gold. Erm, yes, it does help to open our eyes first thing! Bit like plugging in the telly and switching the mains socket on. Yep, I reckon it helps to switch it on first. Wondered why I was looking at a blank telly all day. Hmm. lol.
