http://cherylwonders.blogspot.com/2014_04_01_archive.html
Pontification is for pontiffs. I'll stick to wondering, and enjoy awe and mystery. If, occasionally, I rant, remind me to get off my high horse and walk humbly again. Monday, 14 April 2014. Duelling with God: Dandelions at Dawn. There comes a point where I have to go looking for God. What is this all about? Death Restructuring. Cancer. And the Democratic Republic of Congo. Thrown in the face. Honour is at stake. We met at dawn. I drew a dandelion. He drew the sunrise. At the speed of light. And I was lost.

Pontification is for pontiffs. I'll stick to wondering, and enjoy awe and mystery. If, occasionally, I rant, remind me to get off my high horse and walk humbly again. Thursday, 31 July 2014. 31 July Thought for the day - Radio Ulster 94.5FM. Twenty years ago, I was living and working for the Groupes Bibliques Universitaires. Individualism appeared to be key. I learned. The phrase, “Tall poppy syndrome:” Anyone who stands above the crowd gets their head chopped off. Today I am a university.

Paul Torday: The Irresistible Inheritance of Wilberforce | Asylum

John Self's Shelves. Paul Torday: The Irresistible Inheritance of Wilberforce. If you were living under a rock last year, you might have missed the phenomenal success of Paul Torday’s debut novel Salmon Fishing in the Yemen. The whimsical title and jaunty cover promise more light comic satire: and any reader expecting that might be disappointed. Me? I was pleasantly surprised. 8216;As he sees it’ is the key here. We join the story in 2006 when Wilberforce is in full denial:. No, Wilberforce is certainly ...

Eye On The Hill. A wry look at events taking place in the seat of power in Northern Ireland. Friday, 14 June 2013. Eye on the Hill. You’re all a bunch of bullies. THE problem of bullying in schools and in the workplace is widely known about – and now it emerges that the Assembly has its fair share of bullies. The Basil McCrea, John McCallister axis that is now to be called NI21 have been told they are to be pushed down the pecking order when it comes to speaking rights in the Assembly. The great and powe...

Eye On The Hill. A wry look at events taking place in the seat of power in Northern Ireland. Friday, 24 May 2013. A sense of perspective. THE esteemed technologist and author of The Hitchhiker’s Guide To The Galaxy, Douglas Adams, once wrote that the cruelest thing that you could do to any person was to give them a sense of perspective as to their place in the universe. Which is why, despite the detractors, it is good to see members of our Executive jetting round the world plugging NI plc. However, now t...

In the immortal words of the late Joe Strummer, songwriter and lyricist of punk band The Clash: “If I Stay there Will be trouble; if I go it will be double”. These allegations place the voluble Mr McCaulsand in the position of staying put in office or stepping aside, while an Assembly committee inquiry is on-going. WE know that there are major is...

AS the timeless Pink Floyd song goes: "Teachers! Leave those kids alone! It now turns out some teachers in Northern Ireland have been doing exactly that. The Assembly Public Accounts Committee has looked at literacy and numeracy - which translates for those with poor literacy and numeracy as reading, writing and doing sums. Minister for edschumaka...
