Bridges

This is a kind of sequel to last weeks show about walls.

The bridge is used as a picture of communication and union, between heaven and earth or any two places, countries or states. Some see it as the connection between God and Man. It may be the passage to reality, or a symbol for travel and crossing to a better place. When we dream of bridges it can mean that  we are moving up to a higher state or an ascension. It is the end of one cycle and the beginning of another. In some cultures it is seen as the link between what can be seeing through a glass darkly and the transition to seeing things clearly. It can mean a desire for change. In asking if you are ready to cross it can be a test of vision or bravery. So do you burn bridges, leave the water under them – or cross from your old life to your new? We’re playing some songs to help you find out..

I'm someone who doesn't like parameters, barriers or fences. I'll try and climb over them, burrow under them or just pretend they don't exist - until they don't. Sometimes I'll write about the mind in a poetic way, or poetry with neural undertones, or I'll proselytise endlessly about my favourite new band - or one of the old ones. My Blog will give you the keys to the kingdom. A kingdom with no borders, no expectations and, therefore, no failure.. Because I am endlessly empathetic with people, their motivation, their behaviour,their problems and their quest for knowledge, I work with the pioneering Brighton-based homeless, vulnerable women and disempowered school students charity Off The Fence Trust that has tried to redress the equality deficit for over two decades. I produce, host and promote two radio shows a week: The Whole Nine Yards Sundays 3-5pm on Mid Sussex Radio 103.8FM (www.midsussexradio.co.uk/listen) - and Lost Immortals on Mid Sussex Radio 103.8FM on Sundays 5-7pm.
