Under Control

I woke up like every morning having run all night chasing my dreams.
The morning light strike through the curtains.
I have to get up to for real - run after them.
I get downstairs,
I make a bowl of porridge, sugar and sultanas in the mix
A cup of coffee with  soya milk.
I switch on the computer.
I fill in with each breakfast spoons#
I start thinking.

What is the dream?
Who count on me today to make things happen? 
Who is waiting for change to happen? 
Who needs help? 

I froze.

Is everything under control? 
Do I got it all to get their back?

Of course everything is under control.
I have a roof above my head,
my ten fingers,
a brain that sing magic

I have food in my cupboard,
I have few pennies on my bank account,
I have friends, I have contacts.

I can leverage it  all to make it all better.

So STOP freezing it ALL UP
KEEP GOING

Everything is under control.

Remember that, if you leave in a place with no war and you have no life threatening illness,
you have a roof above your head and friends to keep you warm when it is cold.
Everything is under control so keep going, you'll get the back of those who need it...

Keynes economics promote the view that in the long run economics system converge into an equilibrium with the support of the government. Nevertheless you cannot help the role of banks in the system and wonder after reading the following quote: “But this long run is a misleading guide to current affairs. In the long run we are all dead. Economists set themselves too easy, too useless a task if in tempestuous seasons they can only tell us that when the storm is long past the ocean is flat again.”   (Keynes, 1923) This imply that economists did not comprehend why we had a financial crisis and collapse.  Minsky with  his model 'Financial Instability Hypothesis' strive to answer this question.  The idea in Minsky's work in a 'simplistic summary is that in very

Leicester Stories: What conversations and discussions did you have with people living and working in Leicester?

Dr Rob Watson interviewed me as part of Leicester Stories series #BuildBackBetter in July 2021.  Prior to the interview, he sent me few questions for me to prepare the interview and start thinking about what it means to Build Back Better post-pandemic. In the following post, I answer one of the questions augmented after reflecting upon the interview R: I’d like to know what conversations and discussions people living and working in Leicester had during the lockdown, especially when these conversations started to focus on the idea of Building Back Better? Through the lockdown, my discussion were upon the tools available to people to support their mental health and connections with others. In a trauma-informed programme, the first steps are stabilisation and regulation. In other words, if someone is in a state of shock, the first step is to ground them and help them manage their emotions. In our community, we experienced first hand what it is to be in a state of shock during the pandemic
