HI Precious (Kay??)
Thanks for the (another) follow
I just realised my days are determined and lead down paths from the feedback by my readers and followers around the world, like you. So thanks for the input.
All your comments and feedback encourage (greatly), uplift and even inspire me to follow “this road less travelled”.
I love my days “interacting with you’ guys and gals’ (and anything else in these PC * days-very)”

…”of chaos” (in the “real world”, so says “the nurse”)
Together, one mind, one soul, one life, one small step at a time, let’s plant seeds of hope, then march together towards a better future…a far brighter tomorrow

Though my family and close friends say it would be far more entertaining with a video-camera* in the āreal worldā, rather than in cyberspace!)
* By the way, do they still make them in todayās ever-faster changing world..or is it all done with mobile phones?
(get with the times now,āludditeā* c ā it should be a smart phone)

Hi
CANāT KEEP UPā¦BUT THANKS FOR THE āTHANXā
Iāve had many many hundreds of thousands (even āzillionsā) of comments on my various other WordPress blogs at https://craigsblogs.wordpress.com/2011/09/09/craigs-list-of-blogs-updated-sept-2011/
in recent years ā¦true!). A few of my blogs went ābalistically viralā a few years back and I got swamped with comments on my various blogs⦠so had to close them all off.
Obsessive or WHAT! Am really pleased you are enjoying my writings, as the reason I write is to share.
Though Iām rather ādrivenā, I still get really, really fatigued (thereās a few books there). So sorry canāt reply individually to all you good people scattered around the planet. As mentioned (stop repeating yourself, c ā bad writingā¦otherwise the first signs of approaching senility!), I was unable to keep up with the comments and was spending entire days just on replies on my various blog pages, so had to close them off on all of my blogs, except for one or two of particular interest to me.
Sorry and hope you can understand.
āDonāt bend; donāt water it down; donāt try to make it logical; donāt edit your own soul according to the fashion. Rather, follow your most intense obsessions mercilessly.ā

āAs we live and move and have our being, so from this vision, we create heaven in our own lives⦠and perhaps even heaven on earth.ā
ā craig (as inspired by Acts 17:28 and the words of Felicia Searcy)
āAim at the earth and you may not get off the ground.a
āAim at the stars and you may reach the moon.ā
āAim at heaven and youāll have earth thrown inā¦
and you may even hit the stars.ā
ā craig (as inspired by the famous quote by CS Lewis ā 24th May 2012)
āWhen once you have tasted flight, you will forever walk the earth with your eyes turned skyward, for there you have been, and there you will always long to return.ā
ā Leonardo da Vinci
When (or if ever) you arrive in heaven, let faith, hope and love be the wings that carried you there.ā
ā as adapted from the inspiring words of Jonathan Edwards, former minister in New England, Massachusetts
āThe Greatest Race: Living by (with) faith, hope and love is the highest podium any person can reach, Godās podium that anyone stand on.ā
ā c
āHaving pursued the goals, the dreams set before us and run the race with persistence and endurance, after giving it all. Then one day standing on the summit of life, breathing in the pure sweet oxygen of achievement, totally satisfied in running the greatest race, the race of life one that ANYONE can run and win.ā

āIf a man is called to be a street-sweeper,
he should sweep streets even as Michelangelo painted,
or Beethoven composed music, or
Shakespeare wrote poetry.
He should sweep streets so well
that all the hosts of heaven and earth will pause to say,
here lived a great street sweeper
who did his job well.ā
ā Dr Martin Luther King, Jr.

Instead of trying to reply to each one of you, Iāll just keep on writing (which Iām often told is what is āsafestā for me!)
āIf the doctor told me I had six minutes to live, Iād type a little faster⦠otherwise Iād say: āDoc, do I still have time to go and finish off this last post or article? Or if not, do you have a pill that will do the trick?ā

āI wish you well on a rainy day
I wish you rainbows to brighten your day
To feel your quiet moments with a special kind of warmth
to remind you that happiness can happen
when you least expect it.
I wish you rainbows to make you laugh and smile
to show you the simple beauty of life
and to give you the magic of dreams come true.
I wish you rainbows
I wish you well.ā
ā Larry S. Chengges
āSince I can never see your face,
And never shake you by the hand,
I send my soul through time and space
To greet you. You will understand.ā
