About Me

My Photo
Name:
Location: Watford, United Kingdom

I've travelled; I've lived here and there; always searching for something. And yet perhaps the one discovery of recent years has been the realisation that I have a strong clear voice inside. I listen so much to so many voices, some my own - despairing, angry, frustrated, scared. And I want to achieve so much! But what I'd really like is to reach out to you, call you to listen to your voice. And then who knows what might happen in this crazy world of ours. And I'd like to live on in your thoughts. Share what we have and who we are; what else can we do? We all have such strength and beauty and love - we just have to find the courage to show it - and to share it. Because that's where hope comes from. That's how I can face the future.

in touch

I started to write. Out came the phrase "the dark night of the soul". The spirit within speaking out clear. And then I found this phrase comes to me from "Title: Dark Night of the Soul; Creator(s): John of the Cross, St. (1542-1591)" to which wikipedia says: "Dark Night of the Soul is a term used to describe a specific phase in a person's spiritual life. It is used as a metaphor to describe the experience of loneliness and desolation that can occur during psychic or spiritual growth."

What voice is speaking to me? And what message passes through?

For this is what I wrote:

Once more into the unknown
That dark night of the soul
Reaching out through mist and doubt
