The end of another week and the start of a weekend

My week is divided into two parts, Monday to Friday,  which I regard as working days even though I do not get paid and then the weekend. On Friday I prioritize tidying things up, fiddling with semi important matters that can wait a few days. My love affair with the English language continues with this dreadful pun (above), only suitable for winding down on Friday afternoon. I am not sure where...

So little time, so much to do.

I have decided to write this article 'on the fly' without any preparation just to see what comes. If we believe that the prime function of the brain mind is to be a receiver and not a transmitter then in theory I should be able to receive the information I need without any left brain preparation.

Synchronicity Symposium Part 2 – reflections

  I have just had three hours of collective listening to three very good speakers and I have just left the afternoon session 60% of the way through because my head is bursting with ideas and the text for today's diary.
