Groundhog Day.......
Well, thats kinda how it feels right now (grins)
As all those who follow me on Twitter know, last Tuesday I was out jogging and outa nowhere, this MASSIVE pain shot straight through my left leg and then I heard a pop noise.
It was weird cos at first I was like "that didnt come from my body right" until I jogged a couple of steps then the pain confirmed it was ! (doh)
ARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRH ! ! ! !
The pain was OMG !
So off to hospital I went and it turned out I tore the muscles apart in the back of my leg (geez, where did that come from) and the medical term is called.......
"PARTIAL RUPTURE OF GASTROCNEMUIS"
Sucks Right !
Things is total rest for this type of injury (doctors have written me off work for 6 weeks for starters !
Now,
This is where the 'Groundhog Day' has come into play.
Getting up, hopping downstairs, breakfast, watching tv, taking tablets, watching more tv, playing on lappy, looking out the window watching the world go by, more tablets and on and on it goes.......
lol, it hurts so much !
Just hoping it gets better real soon cos Im missing the world sooooooooooo much !
Jase :)

Spiritual Wind.......
I'm in a writing mood so Im just gonna write.
Its funny. Is that really how things are these days. We just talk to ourselves and people read our thoughts?
Cos really, thats all it is right?
I used to always write when I was young (not that long ago I have you know (lol)
As a kid I was always drawing and writing stories. Wow, thinkin back now I had those spiritial feelings I still get to this day.
Im taken back to when I was 12. Wow, I remember that like it was yesterday.
You ever do that? Go back to a memory but get the exact feeling you had back then and feel like your actually there?
I still feel that wind covering my body. You know what though. I was never scared.
I used to live on this estate (next to the Thames) so picture this.......
Its a pitch black night. There was a grass embankment on a hill that led down to the Thames. At the bottom of this grass hill was a knee high wall with railings on the top which was designed to stop people climbing over them to get to the Thames. It never stopped kids climbing over even with the spikes on the top and the 20/30ft drop on the other side.
Theres are howling winds but its not cold.
I dont know if it was because you were next to the water or not but I used to always find it extra windy down there at night.
I loved the wind blowing on my face but I remember the wind was never a cold wind. Where I used to stand, nobody could see you, it was pitch black. On the flip side you couldnt see anyone either but like I said, I was 12 and wasnt scared. Should I have been?
The only lights you could see were miles away, across the water. I loved it. Made me feel.......spiritual.
I love that feeling.
I used to spend hours down there just staring across the water, thinkin away.
You could here the waves gentle hitting the wall beneath me and every now and then the noise of a boat engine going past. Whatever lights they had on was all you could see.
Are you with me yet ?
If I had problems, things on my mind. This would be the place I would go. Although I was alone, I felt safe. This was my place. A rest from the world. A place where I could talk, throw my voice out there. Just listen.
I would always drift off into thought. Sometimes it would feel like I was there for days. The nights were so dark there. Maybe that would explain why I like the dark so much now. Why I love that spiritial wind surrounding me. I feel it charge me.
Have you ever felt strange when the wind surrounds you?
Have you ever just stood there and stretched you arms right out and just let the wind surround you?
Try it, free your mind. Close your eyes and see how you feel.
You'll be amazed, trust me.
Must say though, this is more of a night time thing. I dont recall feeling this during the daytime wind.
Maybe you think Im crazy? Im not to be honest (but then again, I would say that right (lol)
Im just intouch with things and my feelings.
I dont laugh at people when they talk to me, tell me how they are feeling.
I LISTEN !
Open minded to anything !
Not afraid to learn, to open up.

Music and Lyrics.......
I love ALL types of music ! Will listen to ANYTHING ! Seriously.
Always singing away too (lol) at the house, in the car, driving my train etc.
Dont go anywhere without my ipod !
Im not saying Im a great singer so dont get me wrong (lol) but it doesnt stop me singing away :)
As you have probably guessed (if you follow me on Twitter) Im always quoting lyrics so why?
Its sums it up in this line I use.......
"I have a passion for music and a spiritual love of lyrics"
Music is a heavy, heavy part of my life and I can communicate through lyrics so, so much.
I really dont know how to expalin things, feelings that happen when it comes to lyrics without you all thinking Im crazy or something (lol)
All I know is that the lyrics go through me all the time and the feelings I get outa that is out of this world !
I love it that you have music and lyrics for when your happy, sad, feeling low, high and when you just want to spiritual drift away in a song in a dark room all by yourself.
So for example,
Ever feel down and out of nowhere a song suddenly plays and the lyrics reach out to you and make you feel all kinda tingley inside? The lyrics sing to you and they understand how you are feeling?
Thats the spiritual side to lyrics I feel all the time !
I can be listening to a song and a certain line or two will suddenly just come alive and stands out and goes right through me ! The song makes me feel.
When it does that then.......
"I'm Connected to the song"
But the best spiritual feeling that comes from all this ?
"Is being connected to someone who can feel that spiritual connection too"
You wont beat it and its the best feeling in the world.
Its alot heavier than that (trust me) and things have happened all my life when it comes to music and lyrics but hey!
Will leave that till you get to know me.......

Im a Sagittarius which has got to be (by miles) the cooliest star sigh EVER ! (lol)

MY JOB
Ive worked for London Underground for over 22 years now !
I started off on the platforms (Harrow on the Hill) announcing the trains then worked my way up to a Guard on the back of the train (Central and Northern Lines) I then became a Guard/Train Driver on the Central line for abit then became a full driver and drove on the Piccadilly, Jubilee and Metropolitan Lines.
I then qualified as an Instructor Operator on the Metropolitan Line and worked towards my NVQ's. I was successful and I am now qualified to......
1. Coach one to one
2. Qualified to Assess people

These NVQ's took alot of hard work and considering I left school with NO qualifications, seems Ive achieved more since I left school so you kinda got to be proud of that, right?
