We dun use it to carry owr shoppin at the farm shop on the way home and now it do hav the logs in by the log burnur wot we dun lite tonite cos it is a bit nippy and awlso we dun hav luvly fires in Wales and we dun want to makes the hollyday lasts longer.<br /><br />Wen we wos makin owr baskit we dun meet sum reely intressting peepel wot do wurks very hard to makes a diffrense in saving the planit and we dun tawlk a lot abowt wot the best fing to do is. Sum ov the peepel livs in a Yurt (wot is a kind ov tent) and they do hav praktikally no carbun footprint at awl! The farm ware we dun stay wos brill wiv awl the food growed at home and the wood wot wos burned wos from ther own wood and they is organik. <a href="http://www.penyrallt.co.uk/index.htm">http://www.penyrallt.co.uk/index.htm</a><br /><br />It dun awl make me fink abowt how the telly and the papers and the inteenet do keep making us fink abowt fings wot we FINK we want and wot we FINK wil makes us happy but wot probably wont - or not for very long enyways - and wot wile we is finking abowt them fings we aint finking abowt wot is happning to the planet and awl the peepel and animuls! Soon ther wunt be no polar bears no tigurs and no orang u tans but we aint making it very urgint at awl! Peepel is too bizzy getting the latust mobi fone or woteva - like that makes us betta or coolur peepel! But I can see wot it dunt makes peepel happy reely.<br /><br />The peepel on that baskit making corse wos so alive and apreeshiating the wurld arownd them. The food tasted awl the betta for bein fresh and made wiv luv and cos the cumpnee wos so good. It made me fink: we cant makes peepel liv in a way wot is betta for the rest ov the wurld but we can does owr own bit. And if we does owr own bit and peepel sees how happy it makes us and how REEL owr lives is ....maybe they wil wants to does ther own bit as wel!<br /><br />Enyways owr baskit aint just a baskit; it is a simbol ov hope and it is a reemindur for us cos we wil sees it evryday besides owr log burnur and nose wot it wos such a grate fing to make it from naturul wilow and that littel by littel we can makes a difrense.<br /><br />Next time I wil tels you abowt wot we dun in The Gower.

So wot dun I lurn during Lent?<br /><br />Furstly I dun lurn wot I can get by wivowt cake and the wurld dunt ends. I dun awlso find wot I do apreshiates cake mor than I dun befor. But ther is uvver stuff I dun lurn wot aint eggsaktly abowt cake but if I dun keep eating the cake I probablee wudint hav lurnt it.<br /><br />I lurnt wot I can be in controls ov meself. I can says wot I aint gonna does sumfing and I dunt does it. The mor I doesnt does it, the easiur it gets. I fowt it wud get hardur but no it gets easiur! In fakt ther wos hole days wen I didint evin fink abowt cake! (I nose - I wos shocked too!) Wen I wosint eating cake, I dun try uvver fings to eat wot I do reely like and if I cud hav had cake, I wudint hav tried them - so that wos cool as wel.<br /><br />Ther is annuver wurd I wants to eggsplore in relashun to cake and Lent and that is eggspektashuns (or as humins rite it expectations). I dun fownd wot eggspekting to hav cake had dun sumfing to me hole life and awl the peepel arownd me. Wile I wos eggspekting peepel to give me cake, I didint reely see them as compleet peepel but jus nice humins wiv cake. I fink they just seed me as a nice (I hopes) teddy bear wiv a big appeetite for cake.<br /><br />Not eating cake dun make me fink difrintly abowt me relashunships wiv them peepel and now I dun stop and tawlks to them abowt uvver fings on the menu, I dun fownd owt wot food they likes and how they feels abowt eating and cake and awl sorts ov uvver fings.<br /><br />I sposis wot peepel (humin and teddybears) wil awlways trys to livs up to uvver peepels eggspektashuns unless we givs them a chance to reely be themselvs.<br /><br />I hopes wot you awl hav a luvly Eastur and injoys yor Eastur Eggs.<br />BGBear Growlshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13101239888572381160noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8141119020030203931.post-6911732644558118952010-02-20T04:16:00.000-08:002010-02-20T04:35:31.832-08:00Going wivowt cake.<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhEMppNh5M7jqWAp9TDYvyPP8KWJCQqizBcOtmSSqfRF_5FErb-T-SH6reWvrQh9_G8Yw1dq1DWlrh8aW7OkvKQJrnuE_9acqQBrfPdnm_uP7_HlbmGKwfaB17TqR47zuRY7JxpZXAb6zRF/s1600-h/Lent.JPG"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 214px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhEMppNh5M7jqWAp9TDYvyPP8KWJCQqizBcOtmSSqfRF_5FErb-T-SH6reWvrQh9_G8Yw1dq1DWlrh8aW7OkvKQJrnuE_9acqQBrfPdnm_uP7_HlbmGKwfaB17TqR47zuRY7JxpZXAb6zRF/s320/Lent.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5440303003566368050" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br />It is only day 4 ov Lent and I is awlreddy wundering wen it wil ends! How can I goes awl throo 40 days wivowt cake?! Awl I finks abowt is cake and not havin it. In fakt I had a dreem abowt cake last nite and it wos awfuls to wakes up and reelize it wos a dreem. I dun searched the Kichin and ther defnitely aint no cake enyware to be seen.<br /><br />Wot is awl this givin sumfing up abowt enyways, I dun wunder? I had a look on wikipeedya and aparuntly it is abowt self dissiplin! It is abowt finding owt wot you can do if you trys. Wel I knows I can eat a whole cake if I trys - aint that enuff? Aparuntly not! I has to diskover how attached to me cake I am and how to let go ov it.<br /><br />Hmmmm. I fink I is beginning to undestands. Cake aint bad - that aint why I has to givs it up. Cake is good. I nose wot it is very good! But if I cant livs a day happily wivowt cake then it do be too importint in me life I sposis. If it is too importint and I always has it ther, I probably dunt injoys and aprechiates it properly. It dun become too big a part ov me life and I dunt injoys uvver parts. So I has to DETACH. Thats the big wurd. It meens dunt let fings be so importint to you that they is stuk like gloo. Lets go ov them and then you can reely sees, tastes and apreshiates them.<br /><br />And wot is evin better is wot buddists and uvver peepel wot meditates do say : that wen you detachis from fings and stops wurrying abowt them, they do come to you and fings do goes reely wel.<br /><br />Rite, so I is detachin from the cake big style............so wot it is gonna comes me way and be fantastik.<br /><br />Ok.......DETACH........DETACH.......DETACH........its kwite hard wurk...........<br /><br />BGBear Growlshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13101239888572381160noreply@blogger.com11tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8141119020030203931.post-21696122232806528222010-02-16T14:49:00.000-08:002010-02-16T14:56:28.389-08:00PancakesI dun forget it wos pancake day rite up until teatime! Wot a luvly suprize to hav a stack ov warm pancakes and lots ov fillings. Me faverit is lemin and shugar. Yummy skrummy for me tummy!<br /><br />Its funny cos pancakes is aparuntly awl abowt using up leftovas befor lent do begin but they dunt tastes at awl like leftovers! They tastes delishus. In fakt I dunt nose why we dunt hav them for puddin more oftin.<br /><br />I spose they is like kwite a few fings in life; if you has them too oftin they aint speshul eny more. I wos finking abowt them peepel on the telly who wun millyuns and millyuns ov pownds on the lottry. It wil be very strange for them cos they wil be able to buys just abowt evryfing they wants to buy and wile it must be nice wot they dunt hav to wurry abowt munny eny more, I fink it wil be strange wot ther wunt reely be enyfing to looks forwurd to becos wen they finks ov sumfing, they wil jus be able to gets it. I likes havin fings to look forwurd to. I likes savin up me pockit munny to gets fing for meself or prezints for uvver peeple. It is brillyant wen I dun save for sumfing and I can goes and gets it and reely injoys it. Sumhow it wudint be the same if I cud jus buy enyfing, eny time.<br /><br />Stil, evin wen you hav millyuns and skwillyuns ov pownds, ther are stil fings you cant neva buys. Sum fings dunt hav price tags on them.<br /><br />So maybe I is glad we dunt hav pancakes for tea mor oftin cos then wen pancake day comes rownd it is stil speshul.<br /><br />BGBear Growlshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13101239888572381160noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8141119020030203931.post-41340355433598941102010-02-13T06:40:00.000-08:002010-02-13T06:48:55.317-08:00Back homeWe is back home. We dun hav to go on kwite a long jurney. On a bus in Lundin and from Lundin to Burminham on a trane and then annuver trane from Burminham and a taxi aftur that.<br /><br />I dun see lots ov luvly things thro the windows ov the bus and trane and taxi and I dun hav time to reed me books as wel. I wos kwite sad to say goodbye to Theresa - we dun stay wiv her in Lundin. She does b&b and it wos so much mor like home than a hotel. We is hopin to go and stay wiv her agen sum time. Theresa do come from Nigeria and it wos intresting to lurn abowt annuver cowntry. It is a lot warmur ther than heer but they dunt get snows like we does heer. They is very good at sharing wot they hav wiv uvver peepel and Theresa stil do that - she dun evin giv us a packed lunch for owr jurney home and walk us to the bus stop. How lucky I wos to be able to meet her.<br /><br />I dun hav a very intressting time meeting and tawlking wiv so meny peepel in Lundin and I fink I dun lurnt kwite a lot.

The debate wos abowt the fakt that the civil partnurs of gay vicars are not gettin the same penshuns as the husbunds and wifes ov married vicars wot aint gay. I admits wot I didint fink the peepel in the Genrul Sinod wud votes to make it mor fair. I fowt they wud votes for it not to happin. Ther wud be two reezuns they mite dun that; that they is not happy abowt peepel being gay and wot they is wurreed they aint got enuff money.<br /><br />Wot made the debate reely eggsiting wos that most ov the peepel wot got up to speek tawlked abowt making fings fair and rite and abowt Jesus finking justice and compashun wer reeeely importint. Most importint. Me humin actually got up to speek as wel - wot wos eggsiting for us.<br /><br />We wos so happy wen the sinod voted in favur ov making it awl fare! We wos happy becos it wos the rite fing to does. We wos awlso happy becos it helped a littel bit to make gay peepel in the Church ov Ingland feel wot they is loved and acceptid. They dunt awlways feel that. In fakt they dunt feel it kwite a lot!<br /><br />Annuver fing wot wos reely importint wos that the peepel decided that justice wos mor importint than money. The Church dun need to says that I fink. Uvverwise it looks like hippocrits! Aint the peepel ov the Church suppost to trust God and put the importint fings like farenuss and justice before money? Wel dun Church ov Ingland but dunt forgits you has a long way to goes yet.<br /><br />Off to find sum nice cofee and cake.<br />BGBear Growlshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13101239888572381160noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8141119020030203931.post-73427575454954464122010-02-10T09:49:00.000-08:002010-02-10T10:00:51.233-08:00General Synod in LundinWel we is now down in Lundin for a few days at reely importint meeting called General Synod ware the Church of Ingland do makes awl its decishuns. It is very intressting! The bilding is very nice and the food is kwite tasty and the peepel are very nice too - evin wen they dunt agrees wiv each other.<br /><br />Archbishup Rowan Willyums is a very luvly man and he do hav a wunderfuls voice as wel as being very cleva. Archibishup John Sentamoo is awlso very nice and he do hav a briwliant smile wot do usis up his whol face wen he does it. They is rathur cool.<br /><br />Today we dun hav a discushun abowt the brake up ov sum churchis in Amerika. I dun fownd it complikated. I fink it is awl abowt womin and gay peepel. Wel fancy braking up a church ova that? I bets God is a bit unimpresst wiv it. Dunt he hav the rite to make sum peepel gay and to choose sum womin to be bishups? I meen aint God in charge?<br /><br />I do get a bit confused wiv humins sum time; why does it mattur so much wevver evryone beleevs the same fing? Why cant they livs togevva? Why does they hav to be right? And why is they fritened ov being wrong?<br /><br />I is shoor wot, so long as you is bizzy trying to luv each uvver, it wil awl wurk owt fine wivowt braking up Churches. But I is jus a bear. Stil I do nose wot God is big on love.<br /><br />I gess we is back to me last blog abowt Amy - saying I love you reely is THE most importint fing.<br /><br />BGBear Growlshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13101239888572381160noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8141119020030203931.post-52870703215179570182010-02-07T13:14:00.000-08:002010-02-07T13:32:44.768-08:00Long time no rites.<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg_ZAgk8hc79PyaJy9baOz8YzAU3sdapuZ-F-RFNxOZ-aitaJL4NOjvE08n9v1LjybtUDAN8VkFigCZRE2HT_3AkOBI2XSUw4lZdQlXVafInUcoVzbyKrpnRxfCJQyilhGHKDeFuZAx1htq/s1600-h/Amy's+balloons.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 213px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg_ZAgk8hc79PyaJy9baOz8YzAU3sdapuZ-F-RFNxOZ-aitaJL4NOjvE08n9v1LjybtUDAN8VkFigCZRE2HT_3AkOBI2XSUw4lZdQlXVafInUcoVzbyKrpnRxfCJQyilhGHKDeFuZAx1htq/s320/Amy's+balloons.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5435616949868462482" border="0" /></a><br /><br />Sorry wot I aint ritted on me blog for so long. I dun hav so much to does and then I dun get pawly and then ther wos a holiday and then I dun hav so much to does agen.<br /><br />Enyways. I is riting now. We dun hav a brill Christmas and I dun vizit Santa and evryfing. He is luvly is Santa. We dun see him in Stourport on Severn grotto. Wel cool. We dun sing Carol's songs befor. I dunt nose who Carol is but she hav sum nice songs.<br /><br />Since 2010 dun begin we dun hav sum sad stuff happin. The biggest sad fing wos wot a luvly young gurl dun die. Her name is Amy and she wos jus 15. Very sad and evryone missis her lots.<br /><br />We dun hav a speshul birfday party for her wen it wud hav bin her 16th birfdee. We dun go to the park and let balloons go and sing Happy Birfday to her.<br /><br /><br />I fink wot maybe she cud see us and hear us and wot she had a good birfday evin thow she cudint be wiv us and we wos awl sad and missin her.<br /><br />It dun make me fink abowt how peepel do rush abowt and not reely liv ther lives as they wants. They sumtimes missis the reely importint stuff like saying I Luv You and being wiv the peepel wot meens most to them. Maybe it is cos they is afrade to say I Luv You in case the uvver person dunt says it back. Wot I nose is that Amy dun awlways say I Luv You to evryone she loved and they is reely glad she did now cos they can rememba that wen they is sad.<br /><br />I fink I is gonna says I Luv You to evryone I loves jus like Amy dun.

I finks it do be a rather empty wurd. It is the wurd wot peepel use wen they wants to pretend they likes sumfing or they is happy. In fact I fink wot it is a pretend wurd, comes to finks of it. It is a wurd peepel oftin uses wen they dunt wants to tel the trooth or wen they cant be bovvered or intresstid enuff to fink of annuver reel wurd.<br /><br />Nice is sumware between ok and boring. Nice is neithur luvly nor horrid. Nice is wot peepel say abowt sumwone they aint reely got to know - sumwone they fink ov as pleasunt and harmless and wot wudint make them hav to fink hard or do anyfing difficult but jus let them carry on doing wot they does and finking wot they finks wivowt eva challenging them. Nice is comfortable and safe and lazy and not reely living.<br /><br />I fink we shud consines 'nice' to the bin and finds uvver wurds to use.<br /><br />Wot is more I fink peepel shud stops being nice and starts reely living. Insted of always trying to pleese peepel and always pretending to be sumwone wot they aint, peepel needs to be themselves and lives ther lives and not wurry awl the time wot peepel is finking and saying cos life aint so very long and wen it is over they dunt wants to wish wot they dun it diffrint.<br /><br />I says dunt be nice; be kind, funny, naughty, loving. Takes risks and laughs a lot. Dunt lives in a prison of being frited wot peepel will says or wot will happen but trys life out and if it goes a bit wrong you can awlways says sorry and hav annuver goes.<br /><br />I fink too many peepel spends ther lives doing wot they fink they shud insted of wot they wishes they cud and in the end they is gonna be dissipointed and sad.<br /><br />I is gonna raze me cup ov hot choklit and says a toasts to awl of you wot is brave enuff to takes the challenge and says 'no mor mistur and missus nice guys'.Bear Growlshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13101239888572381160noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8141119020030203931.post-67528484029250538092009-09-30T15:27:00.000-07:002009-09-30T15:42:27.459-07:00Me hollyday in Germany<a href="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2436/3953725432_4cbcb852a1.jpg"><img style="MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 299px; FLOAT: left; HEIGHT: 450px; CURSOR: hand" border="0" alt="" src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2436/3953725432_4cbcb852a1.jpg" /></a><br /><br /><div>I dun vizit Germany on a special vizit.

The one wot wos conviktid ov that awfuls bomming on the plane sum yeers ago. I dun lissen very carefuls to wot Kennee Mcaskgil dun sed in his speech and I fink wot he dun sed sum reely importint fings but most peepel dunt seems to be finking abowt those fings.<br /><br />I undeestands wot sum peepel is very upsets and wantid the man to be punisht rite up til he dies and wot the peepel who lost ther loved ones is very sads and sum ov them is angry. That awl makes sense but to me littul bear brain that is a bit seprates from sum ov the uvver fings Kennee dun tawlk abowt. I hopes wot he dunt minds me callin him Kennee!<br /><br />You sees it is like this for me; and I nose wot this is jus me pursinal point ov view; I fink it is reely importint for peepel to be abul to shows compassion evin in the most diffikult situashuns. Compassion is one ov the fings that makes humin beens diffrint from awl the rest ov the animals. And the wurse the situashun you is in, the mor it shows wevver you is abul to shows compassion. Enyone can shows compassion to sumone nice wot dunt hurt them but it takes very speshul peepel to shows compassion to horribul, nasty, cruel or badly broken peepel. I nose it aint easy but it is importint to lurns - and ov cors not to beets yorselv up if you dunt awlways manages!<br /><br />Showing compassion aint jus for the sake of the pursin you is doing it to; it is for you as wel. It do be horribul to carries arownd awl that angur and hatrid and stuff insides you and it can makes you reely ill. A very wise Grandfathur in a North Amerikan Tribe dun sed wot hating sumone is like drinking poison and eggspekting yor enemy to die!<br /><br />Wot is importint abowt the justis sistum in Skotland is wot it do hav space for compassion. I dun look a bit at the Amerikan sistum and they dunt seems to hav eny space for compassion at awl. It is mostly abowt punishmunt. So praps that is why ther politishuns dunt undeestands why Kennee dun wot he dun.<br /><br />The uvver fing is this; it aint Kennees problum wot Libeeyah dunt behaves very wel and sensitivly wen the man dun get home. That is <em>Libeeyahs</em> problim. They has to takes responsibility for wot they does. Me Tai Chi mastur dun sed wot a very wise Chineese mastur dun sed wot if yor nayburs howse do hav smoke coming owt ov the chimnee and you can heer ther dogs barking, they is ok - so leev them alone! I fink sumtimes humin beens do want to sorts owt uvver peepels lives and that meens wot they aint takin enuff time on ther own lives. Ther is a funny story abowt Jeesus - ware he do says to peepel wot they gets too bizzy finking abowt the spek ov dust in ther nayburs eye wile they do hav a HUGE pole sticking owt ov ther own eye. Hmmmmm!<br /><br />The uvver fing wot Kennee dun point owt is wot the man wiv the long name aint getting orf skot free (so to speeks!) cos he is very sick and he is gonna dies very soon. Whoeva his God is, I finks wen he gets ther, he is gonna hav to ansur a lot ov questions and who nose - maybe he wil gets sent back to make up for woteva he dun. That goes for awl the uvvers wot didint gets sent to prisun for that crime as wel.<br /><br />Come to fink ov it..........it do be troo for evryone..............does bears go to the same hevin as humins I wunder................<br /><br />BGBear Growlshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13101239888572381160noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8141119020030203931.post-66455386975888190492009-08-20T02:26:00.001-07:002009-08-20T02:49:10.869-07:00Bodies<em>Foto: me wiv me frend Ruth praktising Tai Chi!</em><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEge-0IzYppGp7k4lv_bkvcwnNr0PJ_4Ht2hc3P4PfoH8mvcshhhFzA3CDZLPF6uHcMzuiGKELWt4_GeSYdGBFW8lwpiALDMIj0G-8Mp_6i1l-8ge1XLj0GaOKdckG4nUg6WSXUcDAEaIg85/s1600-h/DSC00585.JPG"><img style="MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 214px; FLOAT: left; HEIGHT: 320px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5371980644116351922" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEge-0IzYppGp7k4lv_bkvcwnNr0PJ_4Ht2hc3P4PfoH8mvcshhhFzA3CDZLPF6uHcMzuiGKELWt4_GeSYdGBFW8lwpiALDMIj0G-8Mp_6i1l-8ge1XLj0GaOKdckG4nUg6WSXUcDAEaIg85/s320/DSC00585.JPG" /></a><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhhqo8PgrslKo9xC9QJo1Mvp_MOUnLo86W9QAiqEZjF40vtxDIVgcCpc8PAaZzoIdTOWt6086iIhiio3WidC6VdmwVdBhy_iFTG-DwDvkR6y0Ji0agd-Sa6KUcDwD6a9DlFSlyPAsVfjLJS/s1600-h/DSC00566.JPG"></a><br /><br /><div>I dun bin finking abowt bodies. It is becos I dun spent a week doing Tai Chi and that dun make me fink abowt me body and evryones bodies.<br /><br />I dun becomes aware wot most ov the time peepel do behave like ther bodies aint importint. That seems very strange cos wivowt a body you cant livs in this wurld! But so meny peepel do be horribul to ther bodies and eggspekt too much from them wivowt ever giving them wot they needs.<br /><br />Ther is lots ov eggsampuls I can giv and I wil starts wiv eating. If we reely care abowt owr bodies we eats enuff food and good food to helps it wurk. So wen I sees peepel eating crap food awl the time I nose wot they dunt luvs ther bodies. Wen I sees peepel not eating enuff food and trying to make ther body like a skeletun I nose they dunt luvs ther bodies.<br /><br />Eggsersize is annuver fing. If you dunt allows yor body to gets enuff eggsersize it wil get poorly. If you makes it do eggsersizis wot stranes it it wil get poorly. We has to do the rite kinds ov eggsersize and keeps it fit in the rite way so that it can wurk proplee wivowt having to deel wiv eny stranes and stressis.<br /><br />Peepel dunt seems to listen to ther bodies - so the bodies hav to showt at them! If you spends awl yor time sitting down the body and particularlee the back wil start to tawlk to you and say 'I aint comftable and I needs to stand up' but if you dunt listen, then it wil hav to showt 'I is hurting!' and if you dunt listen to <em>that </em>it wil givs up wurking proplee and<em> makes</em> you listen!<br />That is wot I dun seed happin to peepel.<br /><br />Ther is sumfing else as wel. Yor body can teech yor mind fings. If you practisis wiv yor body to get owt ov the way wen sumone is gonna punch you, yor mind lurns that it can step owt ov the way wen sumone is dumping ther emotional crap on you as wel. If you lurns how to releese tension in yor body, you lurns how to not holds on to tension in yor mind.<br /><br />I fink the way we dun divide up the mind and body and spirit is false and wot it is awl one pursin and needs to wurk togevva. So I is gonna looks aftur me body proplee from now on!</div><br /><br /><div></div><br /><br /><div></div></div>Bear Growlshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13101239888572381160noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8141119020030203931.post-66376001746567191272009-08-20T02:25:00.000-07:002009-08-20T02:26:16.113-07:00Fotos from WalesIf you would like to sees me fotos from Wales they is heer <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/midlander2009/sets/72157622077118828/">http://www.flickr.com/photos/midlander2009/sets/72157622077118828/</a>Bear Growlshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13101239888572381160noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8141119020030203931.post-50232642343142322002009-08-17T09:51:00.000-07:002009-08-17T09:52:42.590-07:00Back from me hollydays!Helo Frends!

Most humin beens dunt nose wot I is reel and alive, so they does awl sorts of fings in frunt ov me wot they probably wudint if they reelized wot I can sees and heers them! Ov corse my own humin been nose wot I is reel!<br /><br />Wen I is watching humin beens I notices wot they says and does - like wen me humin leevs the room to makes cofee or goes to the loo I can sees wot the guests get up to; wich ones hav a nose arownd wile she is gon and wich ones pick ther noses and so on. It is kwite funny reely and me and me humin do laff abowt it wen they is gon.<br /><br />But I dun reelize sumfing els wen I watch humin beens and that is that they awl finks a bit diffrently. I dunt meens wot I reeds ther fowts becos that wud be rood. I is telepafik but I wudint does it wivowt purmishun! No wot I meen is that I notice by wot peepel does and says how they is finking. Sumtimes this is whether they finks <em>befor</em> they speeks or does fings or wether they finks <em>afturwurds.</em> This is pritty importint cos if you finks <em>befor</em>, you can saves yorself and uvver peepel kwite a lot ov possibul problims!<br /><br />Awlso, I notice wot sum peepel finks mostly only abowt themselvs - like wot they is so wurreed abowt wether they is good enuff or wether peepel likes them that they dunt hav eny time or space in ther hed to actuallee fink abowt the uvver peepel! These peepel awlways seems nervus and dunt sits still so much and they tends to be eggspekting fings to goes rong and cos they is eggspekting it, genrally they does go rong cos they makes them go rong!<br /><br />Then ther is peepel wot only seems to fink abowt themselvs and ther familee and frends and nowone else. Like nowone else is importint. These peepel shows ther finking in the way they behaves in publik - so it is awlrite to be very noizy on a train, for eggsampul, and eggspekt evryone to put up wiv it. Or it is awlrite to say nasty fings abowt peepel who aint in ther groop. Or evin to says horrid fings abowt peepel they dunt neva meet rite in frunt ov them. Sum ov these peepel seem to eggspekt evryone to run arownd and serves the needs ov them and ther frends and it dunt ocurs to them wot the uvver peepel hav fowts and feelings and rites! These peepel tends to be nervus and unhappy on ther own cos they only feels they is importint and safe in ther own groop. And besides, wen they is on ther own, they is probably wundring wot ther 'frends' is saying abowt them!<br /><br />Then ther are sum peepel who finks they aint wurf nothing so they trys not to fink abowt ther own selvs and jus run rownd trying to say 'yes' and plees evryone else and gettin no respekt wotsoeva! They awlways looks unhappy cos they aint lurnt wot you has to lurn to loves yorselv, fink abowt yor needs and look aftur yorselv befor you is gonna be able to loves and looks aftur enyone else! It is very diffikult to love sumwone wot behaves like a doormat or is too bizzy telling you wot they aint wurf loving.<br /><br /><br />Then ther is the groop wot dun lurn to fink wot they is awlrite and good peepel and doing ther best and do be lovable jus as they are. This groop can stop finking abowt - or not finking abowt - themselvs or ther frends awl the time and forgets to wurry. They can fink abowt uvver peepel wivowt wurrying wether they is liked or loved by them. They can just fink abowt the uvver peepel as lovable and does fings for them becos they wants to. They dun awlso lurn to say 'yes' wen it is rite and 'no' wen it is rite. And becos they aint frited by silence in convursation, they givs themselvs time to fink <em>befor</em> they speeks.<br /><br />See I dun lurn wot finking is very importint indeed to humin beens and it do probablee takes a hole lifetime to lurn the best way to does it.Bear Growlshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13101239888572381160noreply@blogger.com8tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8141119020030203931.post-19884952872791378762009-07-31T12:53:00.000-07:002009-07-31T13:12:23.499-07:00BoxesI dun get a package throo the post today. It wos very nice to gets it but it wernt a surprise cos I dun ordur sumfing over the internet. Inside the box wos me book wot I dun ordurd and I wos very pleesed wiv it. Wen I dun finish lookin at me new book I dun look at the box and I dun wunder wot to do wiv it cos I didint want to throws it away cos that wud be wastefuls.<br /><br />Now sum boxes aint good and they do need to be throwed away. I nose wot sum peepel hav boxes full ov junk and they gets depresst just looking at it! I nose uvver peepel hav boxes full of sad memries and they dunt nose wot to does with them or how to throws them owt. And I nose wot ther is sum peepel wot feels like they is being made to lives in boxes becos uvver peepel trys to tells them how to lives ther lives or cos they is afrade to be who they reely is and that is the saddest box of awl and do need to be broked up so the pursin can climes owt.<br /><br />But me box is a nice box and I dun fink for kwite a wile abowt how to giv it a nice job to does. Finally I dun hav me idea!<br /><br />I dun goes upstairs and find sum nice rapping paper and sissors and gloo and sum ribbon. I dun cut the paper and cover the box wiv it and stick it down wiv the gloo. Next I dun make a big bow owt of the ribbon and sticks it on the top of the box. Wen that wos dun, I dun get a big red pen and rites 'Bear Growls Happy Box' on the top and I dun draw a big smiley teddybear face! Then I dun put sum fings inside - letters and cards wot me frends dun sends me. Fotos ov sum luvlee hollydays and days owt and I dun print off the commints from me frends heer and on twittur and puts them inside as wel. Now weneva I is feeling a littel sad or lonely or the wevver is bad and I is indoors wen I wants to be owtdoors, I can fetch me box and look at the happy memries and rememba wot a lucky bear I is cos I has frends wot luvs me and I can injoys times from the past awl ova agen!<br /><br />See boxes can be good sumtimes! So long as we is in charge of the boxes.Bear Growlshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13101239888572381160noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8141119020030203931.post-47008875825593128922009-07-29T14:07:00.000-07:002009-07-29T14:22:03.569-07:00FrendsWe dun hav viziturs for lunch today. I dunt meen we <em>ate</em> the viziturs! I meen we dun share owr lunch wiv them. We dun cook a mexican beenpot becos awlthow it is the end ov July it was a bit cold and very rainy! We dun hav sum ov owr home made bred wiv the beenpot as wel and for owr afturs we dun hav strawbrees wiv yogurt. We dun offur ice creem or creem as wel but they dun choose yogurt. I fink it wos too cold for ice creem. Enyways it wos a nice lunch time and we dun hav a luvlee chat wile we dun eat owr food.<br /><br />Afturwurds I dun start to fink abowt how luvlee it is to hav frends. Cos you choosis yor frends for yorself - you aint gived them like a familee is gived. And wot is evin nicer than choosin a frend is knowing wot a frend dun choose you! I do feel very special indeed wen I finks abowt my luvlee frends and reelize wot they likes me so much and wants to be me frend!<br /><br />And havin lots of diffrint frends is intressting cos I do hav a frend I goes on me adventures wiv who is grate fun and very cleva and then I hav a frend I has cofee and cake wiv and we do tawlk and laff and relax togevva and then I hav a frend wot I goes swimmin wiv and we do injoy eggsersize togevva. And jus ocasionlee we do hav a party and awl ov them frends is togevva and it is diffrint agen.<br /><br />I fink that each frend do bring sumfing special owt ov you and teech you sumfing diffrint abowt yorself. So having me special frends aint jus fun and making me happy but it makes me a better bear as wel.<br /><br />So I is gonna says a toast as I drinks me hot choklit tonite - cheers and heer is to me frends!Bear Growlshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13101239888572381160noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8141119020030203931.post-32615765926550901682009-07-28T09:36:00.001-07:002009-07-28T09:48:43.964-07:00Listning to the birds!Wel I dun bin kwite bizzy today cos I dun hav to go to the shops and buys the food. Awlso I do hav viziturs tomorrow so I needs to get sum ov the food prepared today. Then ther is the paid wurk wot I has to does. But at 4 oclock I dun takes a brake and sits in the gardin wiv a mug ov cofee and a crumpit - awl tostie wiv meltid buttur on it. It dun tastes luvlee and so dun the cofee! And it was luvlee in the gardin cos awl the wild burds do comes and eats at me burd feedurs and the squigguls do as wel. And awlthow they eats lots and I has to fill up the feedurs twice a day I dunt minds cos they is so wunderful! It do be like that old song wot the old man wiv the crokey voice do sing - Wot a Wunderful Wurld!<br /><br />Enyways, today as I dun sits ther I dun reelize wot the littul wild burds - they wos blue tits - was akchooalee teeching the littel ones to feed of me feedurs! Wel I jus wantid to smile wiv me whole body it wos such a wunderful fing to sees!<br /><br />I dun reelize wot ther is a whole wurld goin on arownd us wot we dunt awlways sees cos we do fink it is only owr wurld sumtimes and so we missis owt. And sumtimes we gets awl wound up in fings that reely aint very importint at awl!

And it do giv you a upset tummy as wel!<br /><br />Wen I makes bred it makes me realize wot them peeple in the olden days dun hav a better speed ov life. Shoor they dun hav it tuff and dun hav to wurks reely hard and fyzikul but they dun hav wot is reely importint as a prioritee and they didint get bogged down wiv awl the stuff we do.<br /><br />I bet wot they wud be very sad to finks wot we do rushes arownd and get so stressed wen we do hav a easier life wiv awl owr mod cons and stuff and we dunt hav to do awl the washin by hand or cut the wood to makes a fire to cook on or heet the howse and awl that stuff. I bet they wud say wot we is mad cos we shud spend sum ov the time we hav injoyin owrselves insted ov jus bein bizzy and tired and not reely gettin enyware.<br /><br />Thats wot I fink enyways.<br /><br />Now I do hav to wates for me bred to cool down so I can eats it cos it is very bad for yor tummy if you eats the bred befor it cools down.
