I am a 69 year old, that is full of creativity, only for my own contentment but your comments are, of course, always welcome. I am more interested in writing of humanity than of the wonderful natural history that we live amongst. My favourite poet Wilfred Owen. my favourite author James Joyce.

Are some lives of greater worth? This question can only really be answered in retrospect, or is that entirely a truism? In our days of organised education, well lets give them the benefit of any doubt, when careers can be more or less mapped out, when it is possible to estimate or quantify a contribution based on hiNovember 18, In Humanity, Life, My own personal thoughts, Nonfiction. 400 words. → Make first comment?
