Happy the man, and happy he alone,
He, who can call to-day his own:

He who, secure within, can say, Tomorrow do thy worst, for I have lived today.

Not Heaven itself upon the past has power; But what has been, has been, and I have had my hour.

John Dryden 1631–1700
English poet, critic, dramatist
Litha is the longest day of the year when the sun is at its maximum elevation. The Goddess took over the earth from the horned God in the spring and she is now at the height of her power and fertility. Litha marks the marriage of the God and Goddess their union is the force that creates the harvest.

Farage has done an Easter message for the suckers who’d watch his film to hear his BS

My Easter message to Farage is simple👇🏼

You said Mar 2017: “If Brexit is a disaster, I will go and live abroad. I will go and live somewhere else..”

And May 2023 “Brexit has failed”

So F**k off and leave the UK❗️

“It took me 30 seconds to find at least ten postings from Zelensky directly thanking the United States for their support. There are many more.

In peace there's nothing so becomes a man
As modest stillness and humility:
But when the blast of war blows in our ears,
Then imitate the action of the tiger;
Stiffen the sinews, summon up the blood,
Disguise fair nature with hard-favour'd rage;

In dark times, I am comforted by the fact that our species greatest loves are books, films, stories, poetry, heroes, heroines, based on the power of hope, light & love over situations of hopelessness, darkness and misery. They’re our favourite tales, we re read them, re watch them and re tell them.

Mindset reset:

Right now, brave Ukrainians are defending their land & loved ones, at the cost of their sanity, limbs & lives. It’s an existential fight for their democracy & way of life.

If the Russians lose, they go home. If the Ukrainians lose, they will be overrun & destroyed.
