Under Construction… | All Things Cal

https://allthingscal.com/2014/06/27/under-construction

June 27, 2014. My mum and Granny still try to run after me and on occasion they succeed. Mid all the traffic of the ways,. Turmoils without, within,. Make in my heart a quiet place. And come and dwell therein. A little shrine of quietness,. All sacred to thyself,. Where Thou shalt all my soul possess,. And I may find myself. A little shelter from life’s stress,. Where I may lay me prone,. And bare my soul in loneliness,. And know as I am known. Let me go…. Sweatbox of solitude… →. Enter your comment here.

The end is nigh…. August 25, 2014. August 25, 2014. I’m reading a book at the minute. (Yes I can read thank you). A book by Max Lucado called “You’ll get through this”. I was recommended it and even within that first page, I found motivation to keep going. It said this:. 8220;You’ll get through this. It won’t be painless. It won’t be quick.

Tales From The (Purple) Hood. Sunday, 8 March 2015. Baby-killing lesbian witches: Why I have the word Feminist tattooed on my back. A few weeks ago, I got my first tattoo. It's awesome. Seriously, look at it:. Like I say: awesome. And then there's FEMINIST. But then there's the brilliance of how it has sparked up conversations with all manner of people. It's allowed me to engage in feminism with all manner of people, and the big theme that has come up has been about what a feminist is. Feminism encourage...

Tales From The (Purple) Hood. Wednesday, 17 September 2014. Why I'm Voting Yes. It's probably best to talk about what I want from the referendum. I want a fairer and more just society. I want to see Scotland flourish and make the best of the resources we have. I want to see a Scotland that is more democratic. In short, I will be voting yes. Currently we live in a society that is willing to spend at least £15 billion replacing Trident. On the eve of what may be the most important day of my life thus far, ...

Tales From The (Purple) Hood: Mourning Maggie?

http://purplehood.blogspot.com/2013/04/mourning-maggie.html

Tales From The (Purple) Hood. Monday, 8 April 2013. In the few short hours since the death of Margaret Thatcher a number of posts have appeared on my Facebook newsfeed along the lines of "Show some respect, she was still a person". It got me thinking about how we mourn, and how the deceased informs that process. I've touched on it here a little after the death of Christopher Hitchens, where I argued that it was inappropriate to say RIP for him. I didn't agree with her as a political leader and I can't sa...

Tales From The (Purple) Hood. Saturday, 24 March 2012. The Furies of Hell. As Usual. This week, I came across this. Intriguing article on Women's Views on News, which references this. Jaw-dropping article in the Daily Mail. As some may be boycotting the DM, I will quote pertinent paragraphs to save you the trouble (always happy to help! Her friend Jean provoked (yep, provoked.) three men to slap her. But it's OK, because Jean told her she wouldn't have put up with "a proper beating", but "with a ...The p...
