Always look on the bright side of life

Theme song from "The Life of Brian "---If it's a song of somebody in the world  does it really work-?--Of course it doesn't - Its not even remotely "natural". Its completely one sided .

As Chesterton said nearly 100 years ago in "Orthodoxy ', to talk positively about everything is to drive yourself insane.


Yet ABCTV is doing a bit of it . You don't play that game to people you love

Jennifer Byrne, playing with envy in that way,( seven deadly sins)   is playing to burn -

Why choose the devil when the deal is smoke and mirrors 

In the richest country on earth we have people imprisoned in their own thinking; thinking they don't have enough and what they do has isn't a special gift specially for them to develop. How the devil reduces everything ( even what is good) to nothing - even the good bits get broken into pieces so they never fit together again - even if you happen to get everything available on the board .
