Marty Supreme won as many Oscars as ballet and opera. Just saying. 🍿

Plus a list of things to do - whilst essential - also means our head is always in the future rather than the present moment. It is, as always, a matter of balance. 😊

It is pathetic. Yet, all of those grifters sold their soul (sole?) to β€˜serve’ the peach president. So they get what they deserve, regardless of how childish it is.

Some Cornish medicine to soothe your timeline. As we head into a new week, please know that your best is good enough. Do not judge yourself against the expectations of others, nor succumb to the imposters of ego and materialism. When in doubt, return to your breathing and be in the here and now. 😊

A unique moment. During the pandemic, I was living in St Ives, Cornwall. This tourist town would normally be bustling with people on a sunny, spring day. The seagulls reclaimed the streets for themselves, and I find the eerie nature of it comforting. 😊

Alas, the sea rarely gets warmer than 12C here, so I think the Pacific hopefully is warmer!

Spring low tide in Carbis Bay. A gentle mist settling beneath a low sky, and the ebb and flow of the tide, reminding us that life moves on with or without us. Be in the present moment, for it is all we truly have. 😊

Even on a windy day, Porthminster Beach is beautiful. 😊

To be fair, despite urban myth, the majority of UK is green open space. The population centres are overcrowded, but 2/3 of the country is unbuilt.

The second warm morning in a row walking by the brook. The woodlands feel like they are waking up from winter’s grasp and the buds are only days away from opening. Nature can provide us with such optimism while the world around us feels chaotic. Have a peaceful day, my friends. 😊

The brook by my house meandering through the reeds and fresh green shoots, while a chorus of birdsong rejoices in the warmth of early spring. A beautiful early morning dog walk. May your day be peaceful, my friends. 😊

In these chaotic times, it is very easy to feel overwhelmed. It is vital to pause, return to our breathing and be in the present moment. It is all we truly have. We can turn to mindful breathing anytime we need it, a constant inner balm that can soothe us. 😊

Thank you. I was lucky in many ways. Alas, a lot of trauma, too. Yet, the peace of being alone by the woodlands and the water were my tonic. 😊

As a boy, I would often walk the woodlands beside the creek and come down to this shingle shore. Back then, there used to be a blue rope with a knot for swinging out over the water. Today, there is a decent upgrade to a wooden seat! Yet, the peace and tranquility is the same. 😊

I beg to differ. A tributary stream that leads to a tidal inlet is classed as a creek. There are plenty of creeks in England.

Down at the creek where I grew up. Whenever I am back in Cornwall, this is my place of peace. May you find calm in your day, my friends. 😊

I think when people see me coming they’d run and hide! No, I took this a few years back.

Today is the 90th anniversary of the first flight of the iconic Spitfire from nearby Eastleigh aerodrome. To celebrate, here is a video I took at RAF Duxford a few years back of one of the Battle of Britain Memorial Flight spitfires on a test flight.

Per Ardua ad Astra 😊
