Rest in peace Paul Hester.

Why do I kid myself
Why do I scream for pleasure
It’s four in the morning should know better
But she can weave a spell
Want it to last forever
Making me feel like somebody special

Can’t carry on this way (just go to sleep)
Before it gets too late (just go to sleep)
Doing damage to my brain
Well here we go again

Though I look everywhere
I never seem to find it
Always a shadow around a corner
Drown it in alcohol
Stuck in the elevator
Hard to remember in the morning

Can’t carry on this way (just go to sleep)
Before it gets too late (just go to sleep)
Doing damage to my brain
Well here we go again

Tell you about myself
If you’re in the mood to listen
Baby you don’t know who you’re kissing
This is a lonely world
You are a strange companion
When you get what you wanted
You want to leave

Honestly I want to free myself
From the burden of inaction
Honestly I want to raise myself
To any plane I can imagine

Can’t carry on this way (just go to sleep)
Before it gets too late (just go to sleep)
Doing damage to my brain
Well here we go again

“Can’t Carry On” from Crowded House, Crowded House, 1986.

So I am channel hopping whilst I am procrastinating writing this article. And I see this car. A Humber. A rather distinctive gray Humber with a white roof. And I realise it’s my Humber. Being driven by Eric Bana. See I bought mine from a mob that provided cars for film and television and they obviously used it for Bana’s rather short-lived TV comedy series. Weird, small world.

“It was only when I lay there on rotting prison straw that I sensed within myself the first stirrings of good. Gradually, it was disclosed to me that the line separating good and evil passes, not through states, nor between classes, nor between political parties either, but right through every human heart, and through all humans hearts. So, bless you, prison, for having been in my life.”

Alexander Solzhenitsyn, The Gulag Archipelago

Words I had read before. Words with new meaning. It passes through all our hearts and it is these words that shame us all with our greed, hate, anger and fear. We will never learn anything whilst we cannot see that all human hearts see both good and evil and it is we that make judgements and we that make choices. Too many people fear that choice.
