Point and Shoot: Forgive and Forget?
http://gcarrick.blogspot.com/2012/06/forgive-and-forget.html
Point: Whats on my mind. Shoot: news and views of photography and visual art. Thursday, June 21, 2012. Forgiving someone of a wrong they have done you can be very healing, both for them and for yourself. You no longer have to carry around that load of hurt, day after weary day. Sometimes we are told we should ' forgive and forget. Which sounds all noble and good, but is it really good advice, or even do-able? For I will be merciful to their iniquities, And their sins will I remember no more. Subscribe to...

Point and Shoot: A week to live. (Confession of Depression)
http://gcarrick.blogspot.com/2013/03/a-week-to-live-confession-of-depression.html
Point: Whats on my mind. Shoot: news and views of photography and visual art. Sunday, March 31, 2013. A week to live. (Confession of Depression). I have lived with depression since I was a teenager, although I didn't know that until I was 40. I thought it was just my mix of being an extrovert/introvert. That and the blanket of silence that stifled any talk of depression among men, the heavy grey lives that edged closer and closer to the solution of a shotgun or fatal 'single car' accident. I believed i h...

Point: Whats on my mind. Shoot: news and views of photography and visual art. Wednesday, May 22, 2013. Same sex marriage, love and refugees. A hot topic currently is 'same sex marriage', with people from all sorts of fields being asked to make comment on it. politicians, church ministers, celebrities, even footballers (just to add the surreal to the situation). And lately I am being asked what I think. So for what it's worth (very little actually) here's what I think. Against this, how my friends Joey an...

Point: Whats on my mind. Shoot: news and views of photography and visual art. Friday, June 22, 2012. There's a lot of this going around….and as much as I like to see positiveness among people, I also like to see some balanced realism. It's a bit like saying, choose slimness, or choose good health. Because many people aren't slim, and no matter their diet, won't be. And many people would love to be in perfect health, but their genetically shonky heart won't allow it.
