Valentines

Just changed the fabric of society.
It’s all identity politics and need to belong and so easily brain washed

I guess it’s not a new phenomenon - you had the religious cults in the 80’s and cult mass suicides because some narcissistic cult leader told them to.
Difference is, it wasn’t so easy to get access to an audience then - social media, one influencer can create a single video on tik tok and get access to an audience of millions
Not quarantined anymore
And it’s just gone exponentially viral

Yeah it’s easier to just stay in and watch TV - such an effort to do anything these days

She always used to force me to go to park or a drive to get out on weekends if we had nothing planned, always moaned about it, but always liked just going out with no specific purpose, just two of us, wherever wind took us

You need to wait till you’re ready - there’s a finality to interring ashes
I’m glad I did it - it gave me a special place to go, but you have to be ready

@MemoriesOfUs Yes I miss those drives in the car so much , just the being together, quality time with our partners, I remember one night he dashed in from work and told me to get in the car , of course I was moaning I had this and that to do , but I went , he wanted to show me the sunsetting . I always went on about wanting to see a beautiful sunset . He was such a special man , always wanting to make me happy . I miss him and the happiness he gave me so so much x

I never did have the faith but my wife fixed !

She would ask “Why me ? What have I done to deserve this ? “ ! No chaplain or priest could ever answer that !

If I ever hear “The lord works in mysterious ways “ or “God never gives us more than we can cope with “ I’m gonna slap someone

@Ilovehorses I scattered half of her ashes at favourite park and interred the other half

Took ages to scatter the ashes - I wanted to do it on a Saturday at 7:45pm - when she passed - but was always raining or windy or something
Finally found a reasonable evening, apart from it being pitch black at that time

It’s bullsh1t isn’t it !

I respect people’s faith beliefs and their rights (I spent 20 years working in ME & SEA and have met so many lovely Muslim people, so generous, kind and caring people! 99.99% are peace loving caring people

@Ilovehorses I kept a small portion of ashes - put some in an urn bracelet - and left just enough in small urn by bed so she’s still there, symbolically
