Why is life so hard?
Why after thousands
of years haven’t we
learned a thing?
Why is living so
fraught with pitfalls
Caused by others
never yourself?
Why is it that we
fight everyday
No matter how
small or big
the problems?
Why is it that
we are surrounded
by people yet are
so alone?
Why is living so
hard?
Soon the air we
breathe shall be
taxed
Why is life never
for living
but only to pay
bills, taxes and
be a slave to
the system?
Why do we live to
work and not
work to live?
What is life for?
What and who are
we living for?

I'm a thinker, listener, a "question's pretty much everything" type of person. A seeker of knowledge, always restless, yet seeks the calm in life.
I love writing in all forms and am in the process of completing a number of ongoing projects. I love the craft of writing and the possibilities it holds. A magic carpet through the mind. I love pretty much all creative arts, music, film and theatre the leading ones.
Born in Hertfordshire in England, my family Irish, Welsh and English, I currently reside in Edinburgh, in Scotland. I'm drawn to coastal and mountain regions where I like to go to think and draw inspiration from. Ireland is a place that's dear to me, and I try to get back to see family and friends as much as possible.
My interests are wide and broad, too many to mention here, but history, archaeology, criminology, music and film are just some of those things I love.
I hope you enjoy my ramblings on here as that's what they are really. I'll let my fingers do the ''talking...''

It’s good…
Bless you. Thank you for saying so. It was one of those that flowed through the fingers with the need to think.
