A place to plant your uplifting sayings,
proverbs, thoughts in these troublesome times.

He waka eke noa
We're in this together.




When you're weary, feeling small
When tears are in your eyes, I'll dry them all (all)
I'm on your side, oh, when times get rough
And friends just can't be found
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down
When you're down and out
When you're on the street
When evening falls so hard
I will comfort you (ooo)
I'll take your part, oh, when darkness comes
And pain is all around
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down
Sail on silver girl
Sail on by
Your time has come to shine
All your dreams are on their way
See how they shine
Oh, if you need a friend
I'm sailing right behind
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will ease your mind
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will ease your mind

I almost put Bridge over Troubled Water in the what are you listening to thread yesterday. Synchronicity! Definitely time for the powerful classics.

One great thing I’ve found about getting older is that I can easily strike up a conversation with anyone, like asking the young girl or moody looking woman on the supermarket till if she’s had a busy day and looking forward to clocking off. The result is a smile which warms my heart for the day.

What you give in kindness you get back doubled.


You may not always have a comfortable life and you will not always
be able to solve all of the world's problems at once but don't ever
underestimate the importance you can have because history has
shown us that courage can be contagious and hope can take on
a life of its own.

I don't know what I would be doing without the company of RHP friends and forums. My life would feel very empty.

@Torunn There would of course be the worlds of authors like Le Carré. I have only read The Night Manager but really enjoyed it so can you point me at the one I should go to next?

I would recommend you start with 'The spy who came in from the cold' - it would introduce you to the work and operations of British Intelligence and George Smiley. And then you just go on reading... I envy you. 🙂

You guys have to come up with your own stuff instead of quoting others all the time.

I, for one, am not eloquent enough to say what I feel, in a way that would come close to what's been said.
