Double, double toil and trouble; Fire burn, and caldron bubble.” William Shakespeare

Thought for the day....... "When I allow it, it is, when I avoid it, it is. It requires no effort, demands no standards and holds no preferences. Being timeless it sees no path to tread, no debt to pay. Because it acknowledges no right or wrong, neither does it recognise judgement or guilt. Its love is absolutely unconditional. It simply watches with clarity, compassion and delight as I move out for my return. It is my birthright. It is my home. It is already that which I am." Tony Parsons
