Spring is here

A cold and dry spring, some sleety snow today. having just recovered from flu, next dental surgery, dentists great, but there is no escaping the pain of it. Stitches to be taken out, so why mention this? Well, my pain made me ponder upon pain, in turn on torture. The infliction of pain being it's raison d'etre. The Magna Carta and secret courts, also come to mind. A vote will be made upon that soon, the secret courts. If passed, a law will cause the infliction of pain to be, somewhat, a matter of private, secret court concern, rather than a public matter. A step back for democracy and a sad turning away from human rights.

Of course we are coming nearer to Easter a Pagan and Christian festival in tandem. Many of us have endured minor pains and tortures, some can be very painful. Betrayal, loss or self betrayal, in so many forms. Some of us are just not prepared for disappointments or more correctly on how to handle them. Modern times have brought new insights and understandings, yet regressive policies of torture, war, destruction of ecology and humanity continue. The world leadership have become quite ruthless in pursuit of their aims, openly and without restraint. Fear does not stalk their political conscience and duty to the people, though fear of enemies stalks them wildly.

It would appear, the public have lost respect, somehow meaningless in this grand scheme of corporate and political chess. How do they regain respect?, a question many people ask themselves, everyday. Certainly a blank comes to mind, a space, where nothing happens, nothing is. This a problem for many, how to regain respect and power in their life. Hopefully the blank space will become suffuse with ideas and actions of hope and determination.
