My own concept of spirituality is that we are all part of it, as a speck of sand is part of the whole beach, and a drop of water makes up the vast ocean. Divinity is in and of all of us, each one playing our own part in the whole structure of the cosmos or the universe. And our human brain is insufficient to comprehend the complexity of what this all means. Many wise poets down through the ages have wrestled with these thoughts and ideas and have managed to express in their own terms universal truths such as these examples given above.

Comment on Healing After Trauma—THE DEATH OF A SPOUSE: This Post Written by Ian Wells by Anne Skyvington https://www.anneskyvington.com.au/healing-after-trauma-the-death-of-a-spouse-this-post-written-by-ian-wells/comment-page-1/#comment-2555 Wed, 26 Apr 2023 09:10:21 +0000 https://www.anneskyvington.com.au/?p=20491#comment-2555 In reply to Ian Wells.

You’re very welcome, Ian. This helps me as I need to focus on another publication. It’s now all about having it edited by a professional. By the way, I left out the beginning lines of your poem, because it needs to focus on you at this point. Your college mate Anne.

It’s been five years since my kids and I had to make the almost impossible decision to turn off my wife’s life extending machines. The journey thereafter has been a long and torturous one. I often wished the choices open to me were less narrow, but through the passage of time PLUS some good advice PLUS a loving memory and a little determination I am on the way up again. My time at the keyboard has also been lifting for me. As I say … write on, right on.

P.S. I’ve your illustration choices and the headings you’ve added work well to break up the flow and allow the reader to refocus. Again, thanks.

Comment on Giving and Receiving Feedback in a Writers’ Group by Lemuel Harker https://www.anneskyvington.com.au/giving-and-receiving-feedback-in-a-writers-group/comment-page-1/#comment-2422 Sat, 04 Mar 2023 23:03:42 +0000 http://write4publish.com/?p=2858#comment-2422 Is it REALLY possible or are these
guys just hyping things up?

That’s the VERY first thing I thought
when I checked out this new, A.I app today..

Is it REALLY possible for an Artificially
Intelligent Machine to write QUALITY, Engaging
Content for my sites in under 90 seconds?

And is it REALLY possible for me to NOT
be able to tell whether this content was
created by a machine or by a human?

ANNND is it REALLY possible for me to
FINALLY never have to write content EVER again?

I just had to see if for myself to believe it.

And I gotta tell you..

I was BLOWN away!

I was able to actually SEE this A.I app write
a PERFECTLY readable article in one of the
HOTTEST niches out there in under 60 seconds!

I saw it with my OWN eyes!

And if you go to the link below, you can see it
for yourself too AND even get access to it for a CRAZY
discounted special they have going on right now.

Watch the demo video for yourself here

>>> https://bit.ly/creaite2_0

Once you have the power to create a LIMITELESS
amount of QUALITY engaging content in ALL the
hottest and most profitable niches, you truly
have the power to do ANYTHING online.

And TODAY, you have that chance!

Cheers!

Thanks for your interest in my blog, Bob. You must have been in the year following mine? You probably haven’t even hit near eighty yet! I think you were one of the footballers from memory. Some of our colleagues have written guest posts here. Are you still in Grafton or have moved on?

Thank you for the comment, Dagmar. It was very exciting for me rather than scary at the time. Yes, it was like euphoria rather than culture shock. There’s forever part of me in Paris. Must look up your blog once again.

Yes, please send me, as a Word document, your story, and I’ll post it. I’m also writing a memoir about transcending long-term depression leftover from childhood. I don’t remember you, but then I repressed a lot of stuff from ATC and that era. My current ATC FB contacts are from recently meeting up online. I also left primary teaching after getting my Certificate and went overseas for 4 years. I also worked at the UNSW tutoring in Academic English to overseas educated students before I retired in the 2000s. Yes, we’ll have to catch up for sure. I’m married to Mark Onslow, a researcher in treating stuttering. We have 2 grownup kids and 3 grandkids. Keep in touch!
