Why? well as any artist I'm looking at a blank canvas with so many words in my head and I can't decide what to write about, I'm sure it's happened to you for instance when you're trying to decide where you're going to go on holiday or even what you're going to have to eat. It's a terrible feeling when you don't know what to write, I could write about what I think about what's happening in the world but there's so much going on that I can't decide on a specific topic so here I am with the church bells ringing for six o'clock and the start of what should be a working day but today is a catholic and national holiday so there's nothing to do, it's just like a Sunday but it's Independence Day as well so most people are going to church and then going somewhere outdoors to celebrate, eat and drink,I wonder how many people in Croatia really remember with a heavy heart the war and what our independence cost in human lives, I do but I don't want to actually think about it because even though I survived it still haunts me because of all the bad memories that I witnessed and the things that I did while I served in the Croatian army, for me it's just an ordinary day with nothing really to celebrate but the fact that I'm alive, married and have a family who are healthy, for that I'm grateful and that's something to celebrate not a date on a calendar. Well that's all for today but I'm sure that tomorrow I will have something to write about that's worth writing so in a way my empty canvas will not be empty anymore. Thanks for reading today's short blog and if you enjoyed these few words then like, follow and share. Thank you.

Luck

Luck, do you believe in it, like finding a four leaf clover, a bird shiting on you, is that going to bring you luck or do you just make your own luck? Some people have so called luck by winning the lottery, winning on online gambling or winning on the stock market, are these all attributed to luck, good question but if you think about it everything that you bet on is controlled by a computer or little balls spinning around in a plastic globe, you win, is that really luck? How do you define what luck really is, I'm not sure but I think you make your own luck. For instance I made my own luck by going to a cafe and meeting my wife who worked there, I made my own luck during the war in Croatia by doing what I had been taught and stayed alive, my wife and I were lucky enough to have three children when there are other married people who can't have children, are those examples of luck or destiny? In a way you could say that it was my destiny to get married not just luck, which is it ...

T+L

Well at long last it seems that there may be a break in our heatwave, last night after the temperature hitting a huge 40 degrees it started to thunder and lightning but did the heavens open for rain to fall, no only a few spots, I could probably drink more water than fell from the sky, at least it's a little cooler 19 and set to rise to a reasonable 35 degrees which is a bit more bearable. It's Sunday the end of the weekend and again it seems that my wife and I will be on our own, my youngest daughter and her fiance are going here and there to visit his family and I'm not sure if my eldest daughter will be here so it's going to be a weird Sunday but peaceful. It's going well for Ukraine from looking at all the media as Ukraine is still taking over more of russia and blowing up bridges so the idiot can't resupply his troops and he is also bombing his own country with missiles, what a shame the ordinary people who so called voted for the puppet master are having t...

The other foot

I bet that the president of Ukraine is now extatic when the shoe is on the other foot and the idiot in the Kremlin is getting a right good kicking. It's been so long since the people of Ukraine had something to be happy about and not feel miserable every day. They may be still losing their homeland little by little every day but I now think that perhaps the tide is turning. The incursion into the russian motherland which is the first time since WW11 is an early Christmas present after all the suffering that they have endured physically, mentally and the bodies of their loved ones coming home from the front in boxes. Now it's the turn of the russian people to be upset and experience what the ordinary people of Ukraine have for so long. The Ukrainians have gone on the rampage and are taking russian soil not inch by inch but mile by mile, now there's a sense of jubilation among the people of Ukraine and the mood of the ordinary people of Russia has turned against the puppet ma...
