Wrote this on the plane to Italy…
There is a strange feeling in flight
The soul uplifts itself in a way most indescribable.
Perhaps physical height equals heightened feeling and emotion?
As my body is transported from the land over the ocean.
My mind is transmogrified
My life is reconfigured to a new setting
Foreign is not a word for the earth is native to its inhabitants.
And so my habit is to configure flight into a place of solitude.
Before falling.
Peace be with you!
Families Relief had to postpone the crazy cycle to Brighton, it will now be taking place this Saturday God Willing.
It has been hinted to me that apparently this isn’t good enough! Suggestions have included doing the cycle blindfolded, with a tricycle or backwards. Hmm…instead, I’ve decided to do 70 MILES to Brighton, AND a few thousand feet SKYDIVE! Unfortunately they won’t let me jump out of the plane with my bicycle, but hopefully this has raised the bar high enough for you to sponsor me!
For those that already have, please pray that I live through...
Peace be with you!

Sick lyrics
We are all here for a reason on a particular path
You don’t need a curriculum to know that you are part of the math
Cats think I’m delirious, but I’m so damn serious
That’s why I expose my soul to the globe, the world
I’m trying to make it better for these little boys and girls
I’m not just another individual, my spirit is a part of this
That’s why I get spiritual, but I get my hymns from Him
So it’s not me, it’s He that’s lyrical
I’m not a miracle, I’m a heaven-sent instrument
My rhythmatic regimen navigates melodic...

This was so amazing I felt I had to post it and transcribe the words.
Oscar Brown Jr – Children of Children
The children of children by the time they’re half grown have habits like rabbits and young of their own
The children of children from their mamas laps hop down to the ground to be taken in traps
The children of children trapped by dark skins to stay in and play in a game no one wins
The children of children while still young and sweet are all damned and programmed for future defeat
The children of children are trapped by adults who fail them then jail them to hide the results

Peace be with you!
When I signed up for the Crazy Cycle with Families Relief I knew it would be an event to remember, and thanks to all of you I was able to raise over £2200 towards the orphanage! Don’t believe that we did it? Check out the full gallery here!
If you have pledged money towards the cause, or are yet to sponsor, the justgiving page will be online for a few more weeks so please do get me to my fifth and final target of £2500! J http://justgiving.com/usayd/
And once again thank you to all of you for your support and encouragement – financial and otherwise!

Peace be with you
Haven’t written on here for ages. Why? Because I’ve been training for my 60 mile cycle from London to Oxford! Why? Because I want to do what I can to help orphans in Bangladesh!
Okay, well theoretically that’s true. I think I’ve done my psychological training than physical, but hey, I’m doing the cycle next Sunday so wish me luck! Actually, wait, there was something else I wanted to ask for…Oh yea, please sponsor me too!
