On the bus

Just a short one here about the thing I noticed while on the bus this morning I was sitting their just looking around and watching the faces of the people getting on and off the bus you had the elderly whose faces were etched with the lines their life had left upon them some sad some full of smiles but all looking as if they could tell interesting stories of when they were young, then you had those middle aged with their smiles and hiding their concerns over the rising cost of bills and child care, then you had the teens with the devil may care attitude of youth and the air of I can do anything wait another few years young friends and of course you have the primary school and pre school children with their impish it was not me look and the why can't I do that then of course you have the likes of me sitting their looking and thinking and wishing to be young again oh well never mind maybe in my next life I will be taller lol.

Life and living

Well peeps lets see where this takes me life and living to me these are one and the same as to have a life you have to be living however the quality of life can be defined as the way you are living your life are you still with me so far 1) the way you live your life are you selfish are you kind are you nasty are you to soft do you bully people do you let people bully you do you enjoy yourself our is it all work work work. 2) do you like being sociable do you like being by yourself. With these as a starting point firstly their is nothing wrong preferring to be by yourself ouside of your working life in fact the majority of people even though they do not register like being by themselves this can be seen by the types of hobbies people partake in.But hey everyone to their own but my point is if you live a more sharing and caring type of life then as well as feeling good about yourself then others will appreciate you more.

My Life part 6

I will not bore you with all the various contract jobs I had but must admit one of the funniest places I worked was a local factory where everyday was like episodes of a soap opera with whispers of who was seeing who, who was cheating and lots of other juicy gossip if you were interested even though I was fired from this Job I bear no ill will to any of the staff or the firm for this because as it turns out they did me a favour as I ended up back welding on twice what I had been making in the factory #result for me.While working I still kept myself reasonably fit or so I thought by cycling nearly 200 hundred miles a week this included cycling to work and back and going out for pleasure rides I also took part in various charity rides the most notable of which was The Great North Cycle ride which had some nice little hills in it I did this for 8 years in a row before I started having problems with my knees and heart however I was still able to do small bike rides around my local area. I also refound my love of photography and bought my first digital camera which was good at the time as it boasted 4mega pixel however I have progressed since then and now own DSLR's I still however use film now and again as even though there have been massive leaps and bounds in technology sometimes you just cannot whack good old film. Well suffice to say I am nearly up to date my son got married and he and his wife have given me two wonderful grandchildren Nathaniel Clayton Bear and Amelia Joan Lucy I think these are two reasons that have stopped me giving up due to my ever increasing health problems but will save those for other blogposts lol and there we have it my life such as it has been now to wait and see what the future has to bring.
