enter land of the second chance

a new year arrives
a new day dawns
try your best
pick something to improve
lets start by not being cynical about everything!
it is good to make a new start
i do need to look after me self
i am getting older
and my BP is not so hot
went out and bought the book
you know the thing freends
101 ways to a better you
14 days to complete and utter spiritual bliss with lessons from fidorex, the forgotten dog guru..
anyway
it was a good read
how to get off the BP meds naturally
keep those dio and sys numbers down where they should be
nothing i didn't know
get moving
eat a bit less
deal with ya stress creatively
add a few hippy supplements
i mean real things freends, nutrients, not the herb!
(Anyway, thats off the list - its a shocker for ya BP!)
so thats why i've been a little quiet
on the ole blooge
been up and at em since new years
walk and think
write me frustrations out
and all that stuff
and i am feeling
after the magic time of three days
a little better
i think
worked in my recording studio today too
putting a few tracks down for a new single thingo
just to let people know what i been up to
its a rockin tune too
just having a little trouble with the drum track
but it is the first time I have
down all the workby meself
so if i stuff it up
only myself to blame
so thats what i been up too
next week looks much the same
exercise and pray
then work in da studio till lunch
then home and hang with family
and a bit of a social thing in the evenings
sounds good to me
what you been up to
freends?
Are you still there?
You gone?
Maybe you be back later?
Please?

Mad Men 101

Thanks to a conservative blog for peace I have become quite intrigued by with US series “Mad men”. For most Australians this is quite an unknown program, the second series being premiered this Sunday night on specialized broadcaster SBS, leaving us well behind the US which is currently airing the fourth series. For those who don’t know, Mad Men takes place in the early 1960’s, varying its setting between the main characters Advertising office workspace, their homes and social lives. As the series progresses we discover that the characters are not at all what they seem, both outwardly and inwardly, as we journey with them through the historical events and changing social patterns which have influenced so much of our modern culture. It is this historical element which captured me. The ways husbands, wives and children inter-related. The constant smoking and drinking. The more relaxed pace of life. Infidelity and the subsequent risks and consequences. Psycho-analysis just beginning ...

Sleep. Wine. Silence. Prayer. Zen. Friends. Walks. Love. My solution.

My dad suggested I read "Genesee Diary: Report from a Trappist Monastery" with the words. "I think you'll like this. If you do you won't be able to put it down and then you'll want to read all his books!". He was right. I counsumed the book in about two days and then began buying/borrowing/scrounging for more! Loads has been written about Nouwen, and you can get lots of information from the society website. His personal influence in my life really falls into three  - disciplines, community, and freedom.  Disciplines : Henri was big...
