I love my temporary life
because all its moments are precious
and all the people I share it with
are temporary precious beings
and the world in which I live my life
is full of temporary precious beauty
which will one day disappear, as I will disappear.
A brilliant story about @rogerfederer wanting some tea at @Wimbledon but he was denied access because he did not have a membership card with him.
This story is a lesson on the importance of character, humility and kindness
Let your feelings ebb and flow, and take comfort in the knowledge that your emotions will pass.
You are capable of hosting them all—even those that feel uncomfortable.
@iconicred@bendav1es@NewcastleCC Sorry to hear you’re moving, this scheme is flawed and not working for I think most Jesmond residents/workers. Please let the councillors know, they have to know the impact this is having on people like yourself. @JaneLabour
@bendav1es@NewcastleCC Am sorry to hear this, please write to the councillors and @JaneLabour to let them know what negative issues this poorly implemented LTN is causing. GP practices really don’t need more problems right now!
I've found myself in a dark place at different points in my life, as many of us have. Here are four words that can help to pull you from the depths of that darkness.
@ldaviesmusic @SiWellsy@JaneLabour@LoveJesmond I have emailed the councillors concerned about my thoughts. I’m not sure how much the commonplace site is taken in to account by the powers that be, but it’s useful for us to gauge how people feel about the scheme and read opposing points of view which can be helpful
For too long, the essence of what makes us human—our empathy, values, and emotions—have been dismissed as “soft" skills and relegated to the sidelines.
Yet these capacities drive everything: culture, engagement, leadership, innovation, collaboration.
When we are stuck in our difficult emotions, we can often become fused with them, as if they’re a cloud encompassing our identity. “I am sad; I am angry.” In fact, we are not the cloud. “I am feeling sad; I am feeling angry.” We are the sky.
