One Last Poem

This episode is about the time I met Stephen Hawking and the message he gave me to pass on. 

Feeling a little lost I went to a friend to ask for help.  She sent me on a journey that took me to Cuba and a song was born. 

Havana is a story about how if we ask for help, watdh out for the signs, and folow our heart, magical things can happen

The story of the farmer and his son and how something we may think of as a crisis at the time, may turn out to be a blessing.  

Manchester City F.C. used to play such an important part in my life, but when I lost my memory, the part they played was over. 

Today I stand in the distance, see them triumphant and smile.

Fear is said to be 'False Evidence Appearing Real' but it certainly feels real enough sometimes!  I've had fear of failure and even fear of succeeding but this past couple of weeks it's been the fear of asking.  To the question 'How do we get past fear?' I still don't have an answer but I'm following the advice of someone dear to my heart.  She once told me to 'lean in' so I'm leaning, going towards it and am getting ready to ask it to dance.  

 We've all got a story to tell so we've all got something to say. 

This episode is inspired by the 50th birthday i very nearly didn't live to see.  It talks about the power of transformation and how we can all see ourselves in the stars.

How the smallest act can make a difference.

How letting go of the past leads us towards the unknown. Rather than fear that unknown though, we can choose to embrace it.

Stories of shoes, of slippers and feet, journeys we'll take, till the maker we'll meet
