 Yesterday I took my autistic son to a car boot sale.
He loves them and now it’s a safe and relatively inexpensive way to pass a few hours.
It wasn’t always so.
My son loves things he’s familiar with and used to want to buy every video he already owned. I suspect he didn’t realise there was more than one copy on the planet, and the fact he’d seen another version on someone’s stall didn’t mean his was not still waiting for him at home.
What do you think about the Law of Attraction?
I believe in it, especially after the fiasco? I had yesterday.
If you’ve read any of my earlier posts you’ll know Alex Jeffreys is my mentor and he’s a pretty nice guy.
He’s also very busy.
Over the last few months I’ve been interviewing a few of his students in the hope of proving anyone can change their lives if they want to.
It’s been an interesting experience, and it’s become very clear if people have the right motivation, nothing stops them – not age, lack of funds, time , technical skills or other commitments.
Today I went to a lovely humanist funeral.Â
It was a celebration of the life of my ex neighbour who died peacefully in his sleep at the age of ninety.
Sid had led a wonderful life.
His pleasures were simple, and it was so interesting to learn more about this industrious man who must have been the longest serving paper delivery boy in history.Â
It seems he’d delivered the Sunday papers for fifty years, to customers in the middle of the fen countryside. Sid collected eggs and vegetables along the way and provided almost a social service for his customers.
