We have no right to judge one another as we cannot know all the forces effecting someone's life. Judge not lest you be judged has always worked for me. That being said, we human beings seem to be judgment machines and each one of us is a work in progress.

I have had that Victor Frankl quote stuck to my computer for years as a reminder to me, and it’s a good reminder today.

Lovely piece, which I thought was about finding that zone of quietist safety amidst the swirl of proclamation and influence and strident opinion.

So many demands are made clamouring for our attention with manic hype and condemning invective, it can be hard to reflect and arrive at something considered and worthwhile.

Shade has a poor reputation but there is nothing more beautiful than sunlight filtered through trees on soft undergrowth.
