TRIGGER WARNING: Please be aware the message briefly alludes to self-harm and suicide.

In April, 58 years ago, 2001: A Space Odyssey premiered, with HAL9000, a computer programme with a human-like personality, willing to kill to achieve mission objectives.

Today, we delve into whether we should fear or favour emerging technologies and AI. Is it just a tool that can be used for good or evil, or is it a wolf in sheep's clothing?

We live in an age of astonishing medical advancement. Diseases once thought untreatable are more manageable, and genetic technologies promise possibilities that previous generations could barely imagine. Yet these breakthroughs also raise difficult questions—not just about what we can do, but what we should do.

This is not just a medical conversation—it is a deeply spiritual one.

I wonder what brought you to live where you live?

For some, it can be for work. A new job requires a change of location. A new relationship has you move to be with the one you love. For others, it is upsizing or downsizing.

Often, there are times in our lives when we long for a fresh start. A relationship has gone sour, so to clear the air and create some space, we move to a new location. Perhaps we don’t like who we have become, and so to trigger a change in ourselves, we move.

It seems to me that there are times when running from our past is as futile as running from our shadow.

Changes in geography may be a factor in creating a fresh start. But I believe a fresh start has less to do with our feet and more to do with our head and our heart.
