How did the human race become so corrupt? Or, maybe the question should be, when did it become so corrupt? And why has it become so acceptable -admired, even – to deliberately rip people off? None of us are squeaky clean, let’s be upfront about that. We might recognise that we’ve been given too much […]
She came tearing around the bend in the very narrow lane, only just managing to pull her four-wheel drive rocket to a halt before sliding into us. “Lady,” I muttered, “slow the hell down!” She quickly reversed into a small lay-by and waited for us to pass. As we did so, giving a wave of […]
Don’t you sometimes just want to punch the world in its face? (Here’s a weird piece of information: I was recently deep in a meditation when my left arm suddenly shot out, fist balled, and jabbed the air – not once, but twice. Even my astral self has attitude). Don’t you feel exhausted by a […]
Should everyone be involved in romantic relationships? Actually, I don’t think so. I don’t think we’re all cut out for them. I don’t think I am. I don’t believe I’m equipped for them, based on long-term experience. Don’t get me wrong, I’m a supportive partner, and I often put my own needs to one side, […]
There are many reasons to feel angry at this point in human history. Not only angry, but afraid, too. And defeated. There are a million (at least that’s how it feels) different causes. Which are vociferously being shoved in our faces, every second of every day. For every argument, a counterargument arises. Followed by a […]
It appears that a lot of men are lousy at showing genuine curiosity when communicating with a potential love interest. And this isn’t me man-bashing. This is me reporting what I have heard from too many frustrated women who’ve struggled to get a word in edgeways, during the initial, getting-to-know-you process, with a guy who […]
Narcissism is a relatively new buzzword – and so it is easy to dismiss yet another article on the subject with a bored yawn and a roll of the eyes. Anyone who has ever p****d another person off runs the risk of being labelled a narcissist… probably by someone who actually is one. However, the […]
It is time we stopped perceiving Keir Starmer in the way we have been doing. It’s time we stopped having certain expectations and hopes, stopped issuing demands. Videos and posts abound, claiming to have caught him red-handed in the act of lying and engaging in dodgy, back-room dealings – as if there is a chance […]
I have been a professional psychic for 30 years — as in, it has been my full-time profession, alongside my writing ‘career’. And I can tell you that the psychic arena stinks to high heaven of BS. Is psychic ability a gift? Not in the way it is commonly presented. You could say that anyone who is […]
This is a strange, short rant. But I have to get it off my chest. Living close to people who seem incapable of closing a door, instead allowing it to bang shut, is a real source of stress. Especially when they come and go every five minutes (what are they doing?). I wonder why they […]
