New York City is a miraculous place,created over the stretch of hundreds of years.. If we could only reverse time and visualise all the evolving layers of multi dimensional events and activities. Historians might have the best sense of it. 
I took this picture on my iPhone from the back window of a car. 
A huge poster advertising the exact ‘tool’ I was using to capture the moment. We can’t ‘capture’ time… It never stands still. 
Just a thought for the day.. 
‘Movin’ on’….

Sending out some glittering shiny treats on Father’s Day and Juneteenth…One day celebrating the great side of the ‘patriarchy’ as well as commemorating the official ending of slavery in the United States in 1865.
There’s a great deal to be said on both these topics.
But for now I’m just sticking to incredible cakes that are actually candles!! 
Appearances can be deceptive. 
Love n’ Peace everybody… and THANKYOU for all your lovely messages! 💕

Open
Eurythmics at the 51st Songwriters Hall of Fame Gala last night! 
And what a night it was…
I’m still amazed by the fact that so many musical giants were gathered in the same room. 
It still hasn’t quite sunk in…
Can you imagine watching Smokey Robinson perform live..The Isley Brothers performing ‘Shout’ - topped off with Mikey Stevenson performing Dancing in the Street.. the classic Motown song he penned, as recorded by Martha and the Vandellas! 
Congratulations to all the inductees and enormous thanks to St Vincent who inducted us so graciously.

Flying yesterday… Out in the world again. I feel like a bear coming out from a long hibernation. Thanks to everyone who made my journey so smooth and easy.. 
Every time I look through an airplane window I realise how tiny we actually are.. 
All of it is so fleeting.. 
Seize the day brothers and sistas! Cherish it all… ❤️

Thanks for all your responses to yesterday’s post dear folks! 
Everyone has their own perspective and  it’s really interesting to read such a variety of comments.Social network  platforms have fantastic potential for dialogue, when it’s with respect , spaciousness and understanding. We can agree to disagree and let it be! We don’t need hammers to crack nuts.
You’re such a fascinating gathering of Peeps! 
Love reading your opinions.
Love Love Love - and let go!  Positive medicine.

A reflection.. 
I found my OBE in a box yesterday.. 
It’s a beautiful object and I still feel very honoured to have been given such an acknowledgement. 
The letters stand for Officer of the British Empire.. 
In all truth I feel conflicted by the word ‘empire’ and wonder if it isn’t time for a change:
Perhaps the word ‘excellence’ would be a better replacement?

🌈Lest We Forget🌈
Los Angeles is celebrating Gay Pride this weekend. It’s like a giant rainbow Mardi Gras in Boy’s Town…
Tremendous strides have been made in the Western world regarding Human Rights - Gay Rights - Civil Rights, giving good reason for celebration. 
Civil liberty and rights have been a long time coming for the LGTBQI community. It took a terrible HIV/AIDS pandemic and a ton of human effort and sacrifice to hasten that tipping point.
I think it’s important to remember what it has taken to move things forwards from where they were forty years ago. It’s easy to forget. The younger generations have no lived experience of it ( fortunately) . 
In WESTERN countries however, it’s important to remember that people are still being forced to live double lives for their own safety in too many countries. 
Support Gay Rights Everywhere!

Some ‘good news’ - for Ukrainian pets! 
Please meet Isabel, Patricio and Jasper.. their most beautiful cat who they recently brought into their home in Los Angeles. 
Jasper once lived in Ukraine, but courtesy of pet rescuers, he now lives in the US.
There are countless foreign pet rescue organisations stepping forwards to take care of animals throughout the terrible invasion of Ukraine. #ZooPatrol is just one of them. 
As you can see, Jasper is settling in very nicely!

Open
Climate Leaders have been meeting in Stockholm this week to discuss the issue of Climate Change. Unsurprisingly global leaders aren’t living up to promises made to mitigate the impending effects of man-made global warming. 
Friends.. I think about this every day with profound  concern for the future well being of our younger generations..We have discussions, conferences and campaigns, yet without appropriate action NOW the window of opportunity to make effective change will be GONE… 
We should all be shouting from the rooftops, demanding action.
Even billionaires, politicians, corporate businessmen and women have children and grandchildren.. 
Mars isn’t an alternative.
