What do you know about vampires?

Sleep in coffins.

Can turn into bats.

Killed with ye olde stake-through-the-heart (decapitation if you’re German).

All well known Vampire ‘Facts’.

One lesser remembered one is that they can’t enter a house unless invited by the owner.

Once invited they can rock up as they please.

They can’t come in without you permission.

Like most things.

Other people may make those choices harder.

May peer pressure your into eating that cake at work.

Having those drinks.

Flabotaging you in various ways.

“Stop being boring” being their common call.

But………..

Like a Vampire and our house……….

Nothing can enter without our permission.

The ultimate choice of what goes into our bodies is ours and ours alone.

Food, drink, opinions, negativity and everything else………..

Can only come in when we ‘invite’ it.

And, like a Vampire taking that permission as ongoing……….

Us allowing people to make us do something we wished we hadn’t………..

Shows them that they should do the same next time.

Saying “No” three times then “Yes”………..

Teaches people to ask four times.

We get that it’s not always easy.

But it’s worth it.

If we always regret the “Yes”es and never regret the “No”s……….

And we realise that we’ve, essentially, been teaching people how to flabotage us………

Then that could, perhaps, help us question what we chose to ‘invite’ into us?

Much love,

Jon ‘Stoker’ Hall and Matt ‘Vlad’ Nicholson

P.S. As always, the programme sold out at last night’s meeting. 57 months in a row while, as far as I can see, none of the local vaguely similar facilities have got the number of members they would like / need. Details of the October meeting for the November start are now up at myrise.co.uk/briefing-meeting if you’ve missed this one.
