I am sorry for the long absence. I have been dealing with some technical issues with this new computer that I bought a couple months back. I hope that they are now all resolved. ______________________________________________________
I draw inspiration for my weekly thoughts form may different things. This inspiration happened to come from a TV show.
“So live your life. Live every day and know that the future is unwritten. Make the most of it.”
At first I found it difficult to find a photo that would depict this quote then with a little nudge from a friend I found the perfect photo that depicts me the photographer making the most of the photographic opportunities that I am given, and the subjects of the photo doing what they enjoy. I hope that you agree that I picked the perfect photo.
I hope that you all had a great thanksgiving, and I hope that you have a great week to come.
Many have heard the saying “No man is an island”, but some have a hard time grasping the concept that it teaches.
What does it mean?
I think that it is meant for the overly independent among us. It reminds us that we are social creatures. It reminds us that we need the help and support of others, and that we need to be there to help and support the people around us when they need it.
I hope that you have a great week. Please don’t be an island.
Weekend greetings to you my friend - I'm working on a
collection of songs at present with Liz Clarke from Belfast which my
turn into a album released through itunes etc - These are gospel
inspired and feature your truly in a production role.
Have a listen to couple of tunes when you get a few minutes - I would love some honest feedback on things to improve etc.
What a memory! I'm flabbergasted .......... How are you Paul? Remember the trip to Denmark.....you and me at the Airport in the whiskey shop....hehe... Raisin Hell. That was over Ten years ago.
Hello Paul and our respect for your support and voice!
Welcome to our circle of friends :) and thank you for becoming an advocate for all children. The helpless must be protected, and those with no voice of their own must be spoken up for. Those who prey on our children rely on SILENCE, and it must not be allowed to continue. Thank you for adding your voice to ours, together the call will grow louder...AND WE WILL BREAK THE SILENCE. Thank you for your support… Team Ireland
My copy of "Armour......." just arrived today. Cheers for hooking that up. It rules, and it's gonna be the soundtrack to a much-procrastinated blitz of the garage!
