Ha ha thank you Drama. I needed that post to snap me out of my reverie.

Terry Jones RIP was indeed a man with great talent as well as being a jolly nice chap by all accounts so I send him my love and best wishes wherever he is.

It is also a reminder to me that this is our life, our one chance (in all probability) to experience the wonder of being alive and I think we would be well advised to appreciate every second of it. Good, bad of whatever it is all part of lives rich tapestry and something to be enjoyed.

 

I do not personally believe that any of us will get out of this alive so let's make the most of it while we are here.

A day might be funny and sunny

Or even a little bit sad

But better by far than them gambling days

Which you used to drive me mad

 

Wishing all on the diaries a day of contentment, peace and harmony

Gamble free &

Free to be as happy as can be &

Free from the torment of gambling that took my pennies off me &

Free to look at the sky and be wooed by worldly complexity &

Free to be thankful and grateful for you friends who carried me & 

Free to shout at the Moon and the Stars &

* * * NOW I AM FREE * * *

Thank you for posting on my diary Boo and trying to help me.

I gambled today which as left me feeling very sad and unable to finance important family events over the weekend. I would have had sufficient to pay my way but convinced myself I needed more money than I did and thought I could get it by gambling. The same old crazy stuff which has ruined my life. 

I am taking a break from the diaries to get my head around this madness that plagues me.

Wishing everyone well.

Thank you Murlo for trying to help me.

It doesn't make any sense whatsoever because everything was starting to look good.

I will return to the diaries very shortly.

 

Best wishes 

Stephen
