Let Your Light Shine
by Ellen Bailey
Does the light of your soul still shine?
Is it still a beacon that others can find?
Or does a guilty conscience cover it like a film
Dulling its rays and causing it to look dim?
Do you tell yourself everything is just fine
Ignoring the needs of others as if blind?
What about those who have gone astray?
And those who are lonely and afraid?
Search your heart and see what you find
Ask yourself if you have been unkind
Good deeds alone will not get you into Heaven
Extend a helping hand to your fallen brethren
It will clear your conscience and erase your sins
And the light of your soul will be bright again
Others will look upon you as a beacon of hope
As down life's road they struggle and cope

Hello all thought you might like to see a few photos I took on Friday when I meet a friend who used to be my company's agent in Australia, his son in law runs the company now he has retired.
He had been on a cruise with his his wife and got into Southampton early Friday morning, the cruise line laid on coaches up to the airport but his flight was not until Saturday so he asked if I would like to meet him for lunch and the afternoon on Friday. Of course I was delighted and so pleased he had thought of me. I traveled up to London by train and caught the underground (tube/metro) to T5 and from there caught a bus to his hotel.
We had lunch and then talked all afternoon about old times and caught up on family news etc. Had a coffee about 5.00pm and left the hotel at about 6.15pm.
I got one of the buses back to the airport and caught the underground back to central London. Then walked passed Trafalgar Square back to Charing Cross Station to get a train back to Ashford.
Here are a few photos I took on the walk back.

I Hope Everyone is having a Beautiful Day! I have a Wonderful Video at the Top of my Post; if it Skips at First when you Play it, just Mute it and Let it Play through Once, and after your Computer has 'Seen' it, it should Play without Skipping.
You Put this Love in my Heart
