  • Where is my time

    It’s not that I seek to undo the years that live on my face, but you have to admit when all is said and done there and more options with the young.

    The young at heart, the young of mind, the young of spirit, with them there is more life. And often times these traits live with those younger than ourselves in years. But nature is full of exceptions to the rules, so damnit if I look a fool I will try to find my inner youthful mind.

    I will wake each day and try and step back a notional decade, year,month, week or day and live that way until I fit and it feels right, where I am finally aligned with the world outside.

  • Overheard : Why can’t we do takeaway

    Overheard : Why can’t we do takeaway

    “Why can’t we do takeaway” said the voice to my left, before staring out the window wistfully at yet another day prime for play and puddle jumping in what the rains had left.

    It left me thinking, a grown man of thirty-four, when had I last desired to be muddy by the door? To strip off boots and socks and step onto a towel, still a little mud around, a smile. Before feeling cosy and safe, knowing I had made the most of the day.

    When, had I last not cared about the state of my hair, about the state of my clothes or the looks I might get for being a mess. The looks, from huffing and puffing, from running and jumping, just making the most of movement, I guess.

    Why can’t we do takeaway away, it could be the start of a joyful day.
