Calendar



Captain M-B had not found time to do a calendar this year as he usually does - and they are always lovely - full of his year's worth of photos - and he is professional standard.  But he has been so busy over the last couple of years he has not devoted a lot of time to photography. So our last calendar was of photos from his diving days, when we used to go regularly to the beautiful Maldive Islands. They inspired my first  novel - "Waiting for Gordo" - and some wonderful photos from Himself.

However, suddenly, at the last minute, he decided to do a 2023 calendar using photos he has taken locally.  During the first months of Lockdown we went for a walk within our allotted bounds every day and always found something to photograph. Then of course I was confined to home apart from medical appointments.

The beach hut photo above is not the one that made the calendar, but I do like it.  It (the calendar) was so hastily done that we forgot to put the year on it - and we have not yet taken Jacks round  her copy!  And I only put up our own copy yesterday. Hopefully today, we will be taking it round.  At least they rain has stopped.  But we are both suffering from very bad colds.  

Everyone seems to be down with something at the moment. Maybe our immune systems are a bit weak after the long Lockdown?   Anyway, how wonderful perfect health will be. And that is what lies ahead for us, if we will only listen to our loving Creator, Jehovah.

The last chapter of Revelation contains this invitation to each one of us:  "And the spirit and the bride keep on saying, “Come!” and let anyone hearing say, “Come!” and let anyone thirsting come; let anyone who wishes take life’s water free."

Let anyone who wishes take life's water free.  Why not take the invitation, while is it being freely offered, to every one of us, worldwide?  Why not be there, in the restored earthly paradise, living the joyful life that our Creator, Jehovah, always intended for us?
