where do you feel most 'at home' within yourself?
do you have a special affinity with a particular place?
if i feel stressed or low i always head for the beach.i've got a very special beach near me thats empty.
Sounds lovely Simon, all the pics my brother sends me make me want to escape there too!
Gadget; good choice; I went to the beach on boxing day-the storm was so strong we nearly got blown away.Nearly lost the children as the wind threatened to sweep them into oblivian and ended up sounding like my mother as I strode ahead saying,' Come on, it'll do you good' lol

It's a long walk down a cliff path to get to it, finishing with a drop down rope-only access.
It's incredible how quickly I feel calm after taking time out there.I hunt for fossils, draw in the sand- go swimming and make sculptures from seaweed and driftwoodand as the light fades I light fires, sit and listen to the surf and watch the occasional boat pass by.
Perhaps I read Robinson Crusoe too much as a child
Where's your special place?
if y-all check the time stamp on a lot of my posts you will see i post very early and rather late in the day.
i only need four to five hours of sleep unless i'm not feeling well or i really busted my butt working on a remodel.
even when i am on holiday i like to get up early and do something!
Don't usually sleep until 2 or 3am, so I have around 5 hours...but weekends I sleep in a bit longer.Should try to go earlier-i'm sure it's better for you to get the full 8 hours..
that you are reading a lot more since exiting the borg?.
i've had as many as five books on the go all at once - all of a spiritual nature.
i'm currently reading the wheel of life and death by philip kapleau.. claire takes a book to bed with her every night (something i can't do - i just can't read in bed).. some of you might like fiction or biographies, etc., but i love to read anything on buddhism (although one of my books is by a christian cleric).
ive always read alot too Dans, but do read alot more now
It's nice to have more spare time to hole up with a book.Usually have about three books on the go...I like reading anything but usually it's travel/survival books and historical biogs and Classic English Literature.My tastes change with the weather too!
Classic lit./Antartic adventure in the winter with the fire on and wine...and move on to middle Eastern/African travel in the garden as the weather hots up
i am back from underground ... i have more to tell you than you can imagine ...
i cannot use my old screen handle for now, but we are working on that, and it will be restored as soon as simon and i can get it done.
so, simon has allowed me to create a new screen name for the time being.
(((((Thankyou))))) Amazing, you really are......and please look after yourself in all this.
simon said that recently.
what do you contribute to this forum on wednesdays?
is there anything special you'd like to say because today is wednesday??
I post more on wed's because everyone's out in the evening and I get bored...but i'm posting now as I'm skiving from college because it was so sunny I decided to go walking today instead
.

that, to me, is the biggest advantage of this board.. i'm feeling silly today, don't mind me.
((((((((fader))))))))) ...... Lve you too..but you think this is normal ???
did our letter-writing campaign work?
http://www.un.org/dpi/ngosection/watchtower.pdf.
here are some lovely instructions drafted by syn, and hosted by valis, on how to navigate to the site yourself.. http://www.sassquatch.com/syn/un_ngo_letter/.
I received a letter with this exact wording from the UN back in 2001after enquiring whether it was true..maybe they've had a new influx of enquiries , so have decided to publish it publically?
Im glad it's up onthe site where others can see it-but the elders showed it to were unimpressed.
The dissemination of information also states that the NGO has to '....promote UN activities.promoting UN observances and international years.'
and most interestingly...'disseminate information and mobilising public opinion in support of the UN and it's specialised Agencies...'
And they see nothing wrong with them using the Awake to do that?.....hmmmm
........found this in a shop at the beach today....infantile, yes, but it made me laugh
aw, shame the link won't work- i'm hopeless an anything like this one more try...
...he's a funny bloke- I think he's from Looe, Cornwall-sells in alot of shops in the South west area...and I think it's supposed to be a cat

They wanted to know how many people visited the site. I leaned forward in my chair and said "about 16,000 a week"
priceless
