Singing, in the hall, that God was working his purpose out made me wonder for a moment just what the hell that purpose was as regarded me. We’d all been taught not to think too much about ourselves though so, being an obedient little soul, I dismissed the thought almost immediately. If my being here and doing what I’ve done is part of some grand scheme by an omnipotent creator, I think they may be a tiny bit deranged. Mumbo jumbo aside, I’ve been here quite some time since then and mostly enjoyed the life that I’ve led. So, as far as those distant school assemblies go, along with the rich man in his castle, the poor man at his gate (which still seems a tad unfair) you can add Vera in a boat and make what you will of her.

I could have had a nice ordinary life doing what most people would have call a normal job. That would have been pleasant enough but the resultant change in my attitude led me along a different pathway. It’s been chaotic, interesting a...

  • Counting Freckles

    I wasn’t brought up to go with the flow. I know that’s the easy way to success, or at least I’ve been advised that it is. It’s also a way to a grey boring existence that I don’t want to be part of. Kicking against everything I’ve been taught is tempting but, however you’re taught stuff, some of it will have truths that you can’t escape because they’re a bit true. I gues...
