Brian's Folly: Recent Episodes
Brian Waddington
I consider myself an opinionated old curmudgeon. I've been blogging for about a decade and depending upon the cause I backed there could be as many as 1,000 hits a day. Not exceptionally poor for a boutique blog. I am still a boutique blog but I have switched to Anchor FM to get my message out. Not because I want to follow the trend but because I am losing what few typing skills I had to old age and arthritis. If you click on Brian's Folly And Conceits you will be taken to this podcast and my very powerful photography. Enjoy!
A chance encounter with a yellow breasted Sunbird at the upper pond.

Admittedly My priorities are just a tad unusual. This video podcast highlights two of my priorities. The need to have somewhere to sit and think. The need of something in my life that will help me to focus on the future.

Dementia ~ Journey Into The Unknown Chapter 1
I’ve changed what’s left of my mind. M’Lady has suggested that the power of this story lies in my reality. There just aren't that many first-person accounts of how Dementia works. Certainly, there are accounts of what it means to see a loved one slip into Dementia. But how many stories are told by the person that just might be slipping away?

Every motorcycle I’ve owned had a sweet spot. The Honda 90 would would go all day at 40 mph. Suzuki 650… the double nickel. Honda 750, whatever the speed limit was. Kawasaki 1000cc chopper anything up to 240kph. The old 650 English Iron 60mph. Same deal with my cameras and lenses.
The Sweet Spot is in every part of life. Some call it the Middle Way. Others the Goldilocks Zone. Call it what you will it’s real and life just works better when you find it.

The Life And Times Of Brian Waddington
Time and again Mother Earth has shown me that it is only when male and female are in balance that life is full.

Arabs and Jews trace their ancestry to the Book of Genesis. They were enemies back in the day and they are enemies now. Think of it as the penultimate Blood Feud. Let’s skip ahead into history. The time of the Crusades. Jews, Christians and Muslims are killing each other to decide who gets to rule Holy Jerusalem. If you take another look at the map I borrowed from the BBC you’ll notice that the same players are still there. This goes a long way to explain why the same Blood Feud still rages. I dare say that even if someone was to nuke Jerusalem the same groups would keep the Blood Feud going over the glow in the dark scraps.

It's been a long day. This is the South China Sea problem. That is the crumbling American Empire. The other thing is Royal Enfield Motorcycles and their 500cc single.

This podcast was inspired by a beautiful leaf. Outside in the garden it had one beauty. Here in the studio another. Only when I took off my blinkers was I able to find the new beauty. Perhaps we all need to remove ou8r cultural blinkers to find the beauty in others. And by finding that beauty finding a way to live in Shalom.
