Pride

Pride, no it's not the organization that supports the gay community but I'm not against free speech, it's an emotion that one feels in someone or something. Firstly I have pride in myself who is not the most handsome or likeable person in the world but luckily enough for finding and marrying a wonderful wife and mother to our three children, coming to Croatia, risking my life so that in the end Croatia got independence from communism, being able to support our family, having enough money to be financially sound, not rich but enough to pay the bills and have food on the table. Pride in my son who has gone through college, found a job and is saving for what he wants and deserves, my eldest daughter for becoming a supermarket manager, engaged, healthy and happy with her life, most of the time, looking for a house to be able to settle down and perhaps make my wife and myself grandparents, my second daughter who is working her way through college, living in rented accommodation with her finance who has a job and when she finishes college I believe she will find a job, a house and be able to settle down in perhaps her own house and again maybe make us grandparents,but mostly while writing about my family I am so proud of my wife who has put up with me through thick and thin and stayed by my side to watch our children grow up and become happy in whatever they do, she is also a supermarket manager of a fairly large supermarket and also supports us by putting food on the table while I pay the bills, she is a gem who will always find time for whatever our family needs like Easter, Christmas, birthdays and never have time for what she really wants but waits for that day when we have paid off our mortgage and our loans and then she will get everything that she well and truly deserves,she even goes out of her way to make cakes if one of our children needs it for some reason, what a wife and mother. Pride in the people all over the world that are fighting against communism, fighting for freedom, fighting against all odds to stay alive and try, yes try to enjoy their lives. Also I'm proud of my family back in Wales for what they have achieved, my late father and my mam who is 93, still kicking and still in her own way looking after us, so you see everyone all over our world wherever they may live I'm sure has something to be proud of am I right or wrong? Well that's all for today's profound speech not blog but I just felt as always to write about something that what I feel strongly about, if you enjoyed reading today's blog then please follow me, like and share because it means a lot to me that people read what an ordinary person thinks and writes about. 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...
