In recognition of International Dance Day - a poem by the amazing and great, late Benjamin Zephaniah. RIP.

"In Hawaii they Hula
They Tango in Argentina
They Reggae in Jamaica
And they Rumba down in Cuba,
In Trinidad and Tobago
They do the Calypso
And in Spain the Spanish
They really do Flamenco.

In the Punjab they Bhangra
How they dance Kathak in India
Over in Guatemala
They dance the sweet Marimba,
Even foxes dance a lot
They invented the Fox Trot,
In Australia it's true
They dance to the Didgeridoo.

In Kenya they Benga
They Highlife in Ghana
They dance Ballet all over
And Rai dance in Algeria,
They Jali in Mali
In Brazil they Samba
And the girls do Belly Dancing
In the northern parts of Africa.

Everybody does the Disco
From Baghdad to San Francisco
Many folk with razzamataz
Cannot help dancing to Jazz,
They do the Jig in Ireland
And it is really true
They still Morris dance in England
When they can find time to."

The funeral directors I work with exemplify this. Feel very honoured to work alongside some very compassionate people.

Simply sublime. Moved me to tears. I am sure this will resonate with so many of us who have loved and lost.
Thank you Sam Fender for encapsulating the power of human love.

Death does not end love. Thanks to Donna Ashworth her words ring true this Valentines Day. Thinking of all those who have lost loved ones today and every day.

Take the love you had for me
And turn it into laughter
Turn it into blinding light
To shine you ever after
Take the love you have for me
And show it to the world
Something so amazing
Needs to blossom and unfold
Take the love that made us
Keep it burning bright
Let that fire guide you
Let it warm you through the night
Take the love everyone
It’s yours to carry on
Grow that love forevermore
And then I won’t be gone.

Sending Christmas comfort to all the wonderful families I have had the pleasure and privilege of supporting this year. I feel sure today is a day of joy but also of sadness yet with the support of others we can sit back and smile for the gift of those we have loved and lost in the depths of all our hearts. ❤️

Great honour to be asked to lead the Christmas Carol and Memorial Service this evening at Great Glen Crematorium. Thank you to Marc and the team for asking. Look forward to seeing those attending later as we remember those loved ones we have lost and support one another in the days before Christmas.

As I put up our tree yesterday I was thinking of those who grieve.

Ernest Hemingway once wrote: In our darkest moments, we don’t need solutions or advice. What we yearn for is simply human connection—a quiet presence, a gentle touch. These small gestures are the anchors that hold us steady when life feels like too much.

Be there for those who need it this Christmas.
