Little domains; outlying sections of the old Raft-of-Corks.

You will find here a variety of sub-domains from The-Raft-of-Corks.

These sub-domains floated around The-Raft-of-Corks in the 2010’s. I intend to add some pages on their specific themes. Click on the links and if you would like to return to any of these sub-domains please bookmark them.

Villages of Spain

A sub-domain from the Raft-of-Corks.

Santibañez el Alto My village in Spain

Here is a link to a site I created on some Villages in Spain. I would like to add to this.

My aim was to find the heart of the smaller villages I have passed through on my journeys through Spain. The de-population of Spain has left many villages almost empty. They still have a heart. Inland Spain is full of treasures and surprises. Nature has freedom and space to thrive. The roads are quiet and the Spanish are always pleased to talk.

Pilgrimage

Iona Abbey in Scotland

An important pilgrimage destination on the West Coast of Scotland.

https://pilgrimage.the-raft-of-corks.com This is a link to some thoughts on and accounts of Pilgrimage.

Islands

https://www.islands.the-raft-of-corks.com This is a small selectiion of poems. Like all the pages here these little blogs might develop: most things do.

Driftwood A sub-domain from the Raft-of-Corks.

Pieces I have bumped into from 15 years ago.

https://driftwood.the-raft-of-corks.com These pages are theological and ecclesiastical musings from an earlier life. This link is repeated in the section Nothing Survives. My infrastructure for reflection on my spiritual life has evaporated. The core values are stronger than ever in my life. I expect I’ll add an update to the pages in that category.

Horizons https://horizons.the-raft-of-corks.com/

Library in Iona Abbey, Scotland.

In my reading days some books were outstanding for me. Here I introduce some of them. The main themes are addiction and contemplation. Wisdom which I hope will survive.
