"I OFTEN wonder how it rules our lives We save every bit to see our offspring survive It speaks of domination and affluence to some And distant dreams if you have none.
It can be the root of all evil Or a lifeline when you are sinking Or your nest egg when you aren't working.
We can argue that it makes one happy But it also creates greed, murder and insanity It's a game of numbers, numbers that never end Money! Money! Money! How much is ever enough For one to be content."
Christ church Greyfriars, New Gate Street. London
"I FEAR NOTHING. I fear no one. I am free.
I am free because I am responsible for myself.
I am free to breathe. I am free to write.
I am free to speak and I am free to fly.
Freedom is not absolute.
I feel free because I do not react, I respond. I feel the absence of pressure. I feel the absence of compulsion.
I feel free because I am in control of my emotions. I feel free because there are no chains or desires bonding me.
I feel content. I feel happy. I feel free within.
I feel free because I feel me.

"OUR FINGERS entwined
My head resting on your shoulder
It was a moment in time
But is now a few seconds older.
Seconds turn into minutes
Minutes into days
Days into months
And it's suddenly a year.
Years go by,
And a moment becomes a memory
That brings a smile to my face
Each time, the scene unrolls to me
Time brings changes, joys and fears
But it is these memories of the past
That linger on for years
How time flies..."
