Stumbled across this and found it lovely and quite moving.

I don't always visit Lobster Pot.  But when I do. I sit.

Since April 1st this year, I've been writing motivational pieces for a new positive news website called Karmic Realms News - they've given me a column where I take that old desktop diary I bought in India a few years ago and, each day, take that day's quotation and write something personal and motivating.

Some days the quote on the page isn't particularly motivational, or too culturally specific, or too religious for my personal tastes - so, sometimes, I replace the quote with another by the same author or, as I've started doing recently, coming up with my own every now and then.

They can all be seen here........

https://karmicrealms.news/author/jim-sharman/

Scrolling down, you will see the last 10, underneath which are the links to the pages containing the full set. Every day since April 1st. The intention is to do it for a whole year, then I might do a book with them.

My Medicash app came with a slew of meditation practices and courses. One of them is a nice introductory course by a woman called Linda Hall. I don't know where else it might be available, but she does have a YouTube channel, which is well worth a visit. Lots of nice, relaxing, ten minute meditations that won't take up a huge chunk of your day. :)

This won't be for everyone, as there's some abstract, non-logical "spiritual stuff" tucked away in it, but there's also a lot of powerful, practical and liberating affirmations in there. I've held off sharing it, but it's helped me quite a lot. I think we all need something.

There is nothing wrong with striving to win, so long as you don't set the prize above the game. There can be no dishonour in defeat nor any conceit in victory. What matters above all is that the team plays in the right spirit, with skill, courage, fair play,no favour and the result accepted without bitterness. Sir Matt Busby CBE KCSG 1909-1994
