Summer Solstice 21

Some radicals are calling this Freedom Day!

That notion was postponed by the fascists in power teasing the populace finally waking up from the nightmare of the past year and more ... the evidence has been there long enough, hasn't it?

Anyway, this blog has spent more than a week without entertaining its reader(s), since its author has been busy walking, talking, reading but not writing, and entertaining any passing stranger or friend with stories. Listening too, sometimes!  And still thinking, a bit ...

Perhaps the details of all the encounters of the past week will be recorded later, but before setting out walking, perhaps yesterday is worth mentioning, since the usual trip over to Hexham was replaced by an invitation from two beautiful women, or children, once babies, to meet in Heaton Park, Newcastle, for a walk along with a small boy in a buggy plus two dogs, which was fascinating, not least thanks to Dot, the new Cockapoo, unused to so many humans and dogs in one place, straining at the leash to greet all of them. Such was Fathers' Day, yesterday, the day before Freedom Day, today. Of course, both children have been Free in their minds since they were old enough to think, more or less, and were certainly not interested in any Rules suggesting they could not meet each other or their Father in the Park. Somehow or other they seem to have inherited genes saying Fear is in the Mind, Rules are only there to be broken, and Compassion is the main thing to ensure a happy life. Which is nice.

So, since the Sun appears to have risen a while ago, behind a thin layer of cloud, and legs are ready for exercise on Monday 21st June 2021 ... Freedom Day for anyone who cares to exercise their minds, even if they're working. It's going to be a long day ...
