The Universe

Audio version available here – https://colindurrant.substack.com/p/the-universe The fabric of time and space bends in ways you cannot even imagine.

Fulfilment

Audio version – https://open.substack.com/pub/colindurrant/p/fulfilment   In the endless pursuit of happiness in our lives. We are often distracted but what we think will bring us happiness but actually brings the opposite. For example, we believe that with lots of money, we can do anything we want, whenever we want.

Dark Days

As rain clouds sweep across the earth, bringing new life. There is an element of suffering because it is wet and dark and miserable. But this is really a metaphor for life on earth.

Trauma

I am Thanuk. Nice to see you again today. Slowly but surely the war is changing. It ebbs and flows. We have good days and bad days but I think this will carry on for a while. The other side is trying all the dirty tactics. There is a lot at stake including saving earth […]

Immortality

Man seeks immortality and yet he wastes time every day filling his mind with meaningless junk from his prised distractions. Phones, TV, social media, alcohol and sometimes drugs.
