I wonder if you are feeling like I do, sick and fed up hearing about Boris Johnson, his lies, cheats and corrupt ways and means, or the NATO and in particular the US and the UK wanting to save, protect, and rescue Ukraine like they did Afghanistan!
To save my sanity, I have posted two lovely and inspiring pieces on our website.
So, if you too, are fed up with the dominant unhealthy media, then, have a look below:
‘Hope is a thing with feathers’
Life, endangered mother nature and the cult of busyness
GCGI: The Pathway to HOPE
In this troubled world the path of hope will save us
‘It is hope that can give meaning to life and which will give us the courage to continue on our way into the future together.’

Our Path of Hope is about many things. It is about challenging the norm. It is about volunteerism and service. It is about serving our communities, our world, and caring for our planet, our home. It is about finding out more about ourselves than we ever imagined possible. It is about having a dream. It is about a mission and our vocation in life. It is about believing in our journey and stories. It is all about hope.
