I don't think I've come across a place that captures so evocatively the memory of the past within the fabric, as the sea of steps at Wells Cathedral.

True Story
My six-year-old daughter is in the back seat, staring out at the sky. Unusually quiet. I let another minute pass.

ME: What are you thinking about?

LIA: Same thing I’m always thinking about.

ME: What’s that?

LIA: How did all of this get here? What are we doing here?

Here are some of the most important things I’ve realised about problems and stress:

1. Problems are a feature of life, not a bug.

There will never come a time when you have no problems.

What, did you think that one day you’re just going to wake up and cease having problems?…

I love how the word 'atone' wears its heart on its sleeve. It began as 'at one', because to atone is to bring back unity. Atonement is really 'at-one-ment'.

In the same way, 'alone' began as 'all one'.
