Oh the familiar beast of burden. Something I have felt all my life – well for as long as I can remember. With me, it manifests itself in 2 forms. Neither of them are particularly helpful and both of them are pretty exhausting in their own right. Here’s what I mean. I have always takenContinue reading “Beast of Burden”

Cafe Del Mar
I have a weird feeling that I am actually beginning to give less of a shit about things. Stuff that would normally take up a lot of space in my head and energy seems to have affected less than usual. It is a feeling that has been with be for just over a week andContinue reading “Cafe Del Mar”
Lithium
I am stuck in a negative spiral at the moment. I hope I am in the middle of it as it means I will come out the other side soon. But it has been a long one. I am tired of trying to pick myself up every day. I am tired of feeling like this.Continue reading “Lithium”
The End
Before anyone gets worried by the title – this isn’t anything dramatic or to worry about. As per my previous blogs it is a song that speaks to me on a number of levels and one that I have been playing a lot lately. The End, by The Doors, is a well known song ofContinue reading “The End”
Street Fighting Man
As another year draws to the end a lot of talk turns to 2021 and the resolutions people will be making. I often make New Years Resolutions and I always break them – normally within the first 5 days.

I mull over situations, conversations, events, thoughts and reactions in my head constantly. Not from a holding a grudge and plotting revenge perspective – I amContinue reading “Black”
All Apologies
I reached another milestone yesterday. Another birthday. Another year gone by. Some great memories last year. A fair amount achieved and some beautiful friendships and relationships discovered and developed further. But there is still a nagging feeling in my head about myself. That I hadn’t changed some aspects of my life that I really needContinue reading “All Apologies”
La Femme d’Argent
It’s been a couple of weeks since I came to my blogging sanctuary to release some of my thoughts and feelings. No reason I guess – it has been a pretty hectic time with quite a few challenges to face and a mixture of good and bad days. In fairness, when I wrote my firstContinue reading “La Femme d’Argent”
Gimme Shelter
This is my ultimate go to song. For so many reasons. A lot of those reasons are positive – it pumps me up, it takes me to many good places in my memories and vocally it resonates with me in every way. Some of the reasons are less positive – and it is a songContinue reading “Gimme Shelter”
