  1. Few More Sayings

    “She was wearing the rose in her hair, and I was brushing off the snow from my jacket.”

    “Sometimes freedom throws itself around your arms as unrequited love.”

    “In friendship there is a giving without any expectation and a receiving without any obligation.”

    “It is so sad that till now I have recognized instantly every friend I have met no matter how long it was since we last met.”

    “One kind of bad karma, there are many kinds mind you, is when people start laughing more at you than at your jokes.”

    “Gandhi is supposed to have said, ‘My life is my message.’ I, not being so profound, can only say, ‘My life is my joke’.”

    “Ghar waapsi karna chahta hoon. Lekin kitna bi sonchoo ya dhoondoon pata hi nahi lag raa ghar ka pataa.”

    “Hell is your underemployed and unmarried friend with access to WhatsApp.”

    “Do not ruin the present by trying to make the future brighter. Light the candle now, and read in its soft glow, now, this moment, do not postpone.”

    “Women contain men — wo(men) — confine them, restrict them, enclose them, imprison them, not in the tight embrace of their arms but merely parenthetically.”

    “No one here on earth can understand God because we can never love one another with a love that passeth understanding.”

    “When I cannot understand even her, how can I hope to understand God.”

    “Those who read history carefully, will find it difficult to believe in the existence of God.”

    “Jesus might as well have said love thy wife as thyself, for the wifey is one’s most immediate and present neighbour, much to the consternation of some husbands.”

  2. The day began an hour ago, when shouting from next door woke us up. New neighbour was swearing a blue streak - if there was a swear jar we’d have our mortgage paid off already.
    The police turned up and things quietened down, but they’re gone now and the argument is still grumbling along. 😖
    We’re not sure who the other ‘participant’ was, but suspect it was the neighbour on the other side.
    We’re hoping that this was a one-off, but I suspect that this will be the first of many.

  3. Robert Haldane, of London Missionary Society, traces social concern since dawn of Christianity. No compassion in the amphitheater, showcase of brutality of the pre-Christian age. Crowds clamoured for death of Christians as the enemies of gods and men.

    Fewer Christians might at risk today for trying to transform society into a more humane vision.

    How can you be a voice of compassion today?

  4. Another for #JukeboxFridayNight

    From Walt Disney's 1967 film of The Jungle Book, the vultures (who have Liverpool accents and look a bit like you-know-which-group) singing That's What Friends are For

  5. For #JukeboxFridayNight on 15 March 2024 - a response to kindness

    If the sun refused to shine
    I would still be loving you
    When mountains crumble to the sea
    There will still be you and me
    Kind woman, I give you my all
    Kind woman, nothing more

    #InMyHourOfDarkness sort of fits the bill

    Then there was an old man
    Kind and wise with age
    And he read me just like a book
    And he never missed a page
    And I loved him like my father
    And I loved him like my friend

  7. Another favourite of mine for #JukeboxFridayNight - it took me years to realise the significance of this song - about a Californian Black woman voluntarily going to live in 1970s Georgia because the man she loves can't get a job in LA

  8. For #JukeboxFridayNight how about The Hollies and He Ain't Heavy, He's My Brother

    (Apparently the song was inspired by the words a boy carrying another boy on his back)

  9. Look I am not *entirely* taking the piss.. it is also about the need to band together in the face of corruption and widespread systemic violence.

  10. Bless my neighbour who this morning waved me hello with so much enthusiasm that he lost his balance and fell, alerting me to the presence of black ice. I would totally die on those stairs I was just approaching otherwise. He was fine ;) #loveThyNeighbour

  11. Australia has 250+years experience abusing Indigenous Peoples
    Palestine NEEDS their own State, Israel can't cope any other way.
    #LoveThyNeighbour

  12. JustIn on abc news #Australia
    Apparently, no Palestinian rallies
    We had the largest ever anti war rallies (bigger than Vietnam) while our gov was going on about AMDs in Iraq pre invasion. We didn't believe them - we were right. They invaded anyway.
    Indigenous & commonwealth alike - We have no Voice. Parliament does not listen.
    Our DPM didn't even acknowledge my last email.
    We are limited to social media & even then our voice is doubtful.

  13. CW: Dear Channel 4 continuity...

    It's true that #RiseAndFall is made by #StudioLambert, who also did #TheTraitors

    Perhaps Channel 4 might also like to remind us of #LoveThyNeighbour, a Studio Lambert show that tried to portray Grassington as a hotbed of social conservatism, in spite of the mass of footage showing North Yorkshire is full of liberals.

    Love Thy Neighbour was such a failure that it was relegated from #Channel4 to #More4. ukgameshows.com/ukgs/Love_Thy_

  14. If you communicate with those you #love in a way that is not secure and #private then you are, not only failing to love, but abusing that person.

    It's private moments that matter.

    Leaking #privateMoments to transnationals such as #CAGEFAM* is #abuse. Acting as a parent, guardian or elder and doing so is #childAbuse.

    You understand this… now #love — and love thy neighbour.
