Three golf clubs go into a pub
The first, a putter goes up to bar and orders a pint.
The second, a pitching wedge, follows, and orders another pint.
The third goes up, and ‘just a water for me, sorry I can’t, I’m the driver’

‘That’s not how a queue works’
Hehehe.
I had just entered a coffee shop, a few weeks ago, and joined the back of a long queue, to get my espresso, post physio session.
Then, all of a sudden a rather large lady walked into the shop and stood in front of me and my wheelchair!
‘Ahem, that’s not how a queue works, sorry!?’ I alert her.
She rotates and just stares at me with a puzzled snarl.
Fortunately another customer had also joined the queue, remained behind, and managed to gently explain just how wrong she had been.
I regained my place, all was ok, but I also realised that this was ‘just a regular occurrence’ in my previous life. It is only in a wheelchair, when you can’t nudge forward, or ’slip past someone’. I recognise now how EVERYONE for the past 18 years has acted kindly to me.
Should I welcome being relegated (therefore I was just as normal as everyone else).
BUT NO, I WANTED A COFFEE!
My life could’ve been so ‘regular’. I would have been bored. I would have been in a lovely marriage, possibly with children, working full-time. Life could have been so ‘regular’.
I am different.
I am alone.
I love my independence! Most of the time but not all of the time. I am disabled so ‘different’. I am alone. Only I know myself.
I type this whilst sat near a couple and two parents, in a coffee shop on a Sunday.
So many lives seem ‘happy and complete’.
Everything is relative, and humans ALWAYS want more.
Desire to improve is what drives us all to progress
I have always been very independently tackling all sorts of problems that life throws at us. Therefore self-belief is my broad safety net!
I type just three days later, having been in same coffee shop, but accompanied by an amazing new friend. I welcome a vastly improved mood compared with earlier words I have typed!
Oh, I don't know!
Up, down.
Flip a coin. In order to get heads, you have to recognise that tails is just as possible (and vice versa, obviously). As with everything within our cognitive powers, there is always another alternative. Find it, understand its possibilities. It may be worse, it may be better. It will always exist, in parallel with the original. There is always an alternative.
My current music choice now
Deep house music, or Jazz,
Truthfully, the above link, offers just a sample of music genre. I am regularly switched on to various Deep House Music played through my hi-fi (better sound quality than listening to a computer). Latest addition to my Deep House collection -
Homero Espinosa - Deep House Amsterdam 2024
