WOW

World of Wonders, what an absolute change from the norm of bad news, wars, maniac dictators, politics, absolutely fantastic even with the rain. You all I suppose know what I'm talking about, that's right the coming together of people in the rain washing away the hatred between us, no matter what race, colour or religion they were, a dream come true for me and I suppose a lot more people who think like me. That's right the Olympics, the only place where everyone comes together to perform their best for themselves and their country, the only place where peace and enjoyment are the opporative words. What a wonderful sight to see all the umbrellas up perhaps not as a shield against the weather but a shield against the uglyness of our world, the essence of human nature was beneath those umbrellas, all the hopes for their country to win a medal but if not the most important thing is the taking part, the competing, the one thought on all the contestants minds is and will be is their perticular sport and their country. The celebrations as their countries flag was seen by the whole world, you could almost feel the pride those people there in Paris had and the elation of just being their amongst all nationalities, language wasn't important, just music, laughter and fun,with the rain washing away the evil that is in our world today. The city of lights was more important than NATO, EU or any other organisation, there was only one thing on the minds of all who were there and that was sport and companiship, what a wonderful evening, even if you were not there the whole world could watch on tv the example of true peace and goodwill between people. The sight of an elderly gentleman in his wheelchair handing over the eternal flame to a man and woman to light the Olympic flame in a hot air balloon rising up into the sky above Paris was an amazing site, the music Lennon, Celine, Lady Gaga the event all around Paris from the Seine that runs through the city of light to the Eifel tower absolutely tremendous, definitely worth watching and I will watch the highlights again, I'm sure that last night was and is the only thing that shows we the people of our world can be as one without bias and enjoy but it only happens every four years I'm sorry to say, it would be great if that was the scene everywhere in the world every day but that I'm afraid has little chance of happening. Well I'm going back to my tv again and enjoy, if you liked reading todays blog 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...
