"Nothing but a child could wash those tears away
or guide a weary world into the light of day
and nothing but a child could help erase those miles
so once again we all can be children for a while..."
As a departure from all the fundraising activity, as promised I'm going to be alternating my blogs between the charity event updates and other topics, which I hope may be of interest and that you can enjoy reading.
Todays blog concerns two things which forever give me hope ~ women & children.
The one thing that researching cancer has shown me is that for every person struggling with their own personal battle, there is also a devoted network of supporting friends and family.
Sometimes, it is the strength that sufferers can drawn upon from their young children that can give them the added will to fight, and gives them something to live for.
Specifically for me, I know of a special lady who fights the good fight from day-to-day, and she does this primarily for the sake of her two lovely, gorgeous girls. If it wasn't for them maybe she'd give up her fight.
But she knows that every moment shared is so precious and has to be treasured.
On the flip side of that coin unfortunately is the knowledge that not every mother has this 'fight' within them.
The nearest that I've ever come to being a father is when I looked after my friends little girl for about a year when she was only four. So it is with some regret that I recently learned that my friend had taken her own life, which is so sad...I really like to believe that no matter how hard life gets, if you've got a child to live for then the future will always shine a positive light.
A very good friend of mine (Elona) has just given birth to a gorgeous baby boy (Zak), and I am so thrilled for her.
Likewise, an ex-girlfriend of mine (Tracey) who always wished for a child but it just wasn't meant to be for us at the time when we were together, now has a precious little girl in her life (Izzy), and another one on the way!
Then there's my ex-boss (Lucy) who left a certain company around the same time as me three years ago ~ she left to have a beautiful girl (Ruby), and I left to go off travelling around New Zealand...where doe the time go?
And I could never forget my great mates in Cheltenham (Jimi & Denn) and their wonderful boys (Marshall & Ossie)...I'll be seeing you again soon I promise!
Having kids completely changes your life and puts everything into a different perspective.
Now you could say how would I know, but believe me I do.
I may be fast approaching 44, definitely mid-life for a man, but I'm not in a crisis! Lol.
I never give up hope, and whether it's kids of my own or being a father to somebody else's children, I like to think I can be a dad...time will tell, I guess?
I'll leave you with further lyrics from Steve Earle which perfectly describes these sentiments, and is dedicated with love to three lovely girls who shall remain nameless...but they know who they are! ♥
"Now all around the world in every little town
everyday is heard a precious little sound
and every mother kind and every father proud
looks down in awe to find another chance allowed..."

FAQ's
"choose life, choose living, go digging for essence..."
This weeks blog provides a few answers to some frequently asked questions (FAQ's) which have been posed to me ever since I unveiled my plans to organise a charity walk next April.
Just to confirm that my intention is to walk the entire length of The South Downs Way (100 miles) in aid of Cancer Research UK.
Why Cancer Research UK?
As some of you are no doubt aware, somebody especially close to me has recently being diagnosed with terminal cancer. Also, a very good friend of mine has a girlfriend who is suffering with the same condition.
In addition, I recently found out that my ex-father-in-law passed away after a long battle with cancer.
And finally, a close friend of mine has worked for and supported Cancer Research UK, so for all of these reasons this charity seemed a very worthy cause.
Why the delay until next April?
This is purely for practical reasons.
Firstly, I have no holiday entitlement until the next financial year.
Secondly, this gives me sufficient time to fully prepare fitness wise, and properly organise the event.
And finally, the specific date of April 23rd to April 27th was decided as it comes after the Easter Bank Holiday weekend, and also after the running of the London Marathon on Sunday April 22nd, as I didn't want to detract from, or clash with anybody else's possible charity efforts.
Why are you walking west to east?
Most of the guide books describe the route starting in Eastbourne and ending in Winchester.
But I've decided to walk in the opposite direction for three specific reasons:
1. Winchester is easier to get to for an early start on a Monday morning.
2. I like the idea of ending my trek by the coast/seaside and the cliffs of Eastbourne.
3. Generally the 'bad' weather comes from the west, so if I am unfortunate enough to experience heavy rain or cold winds they should at least be at my back and not in my face.
Why aren't you camping?
I did think of doing this at one stage, but again practical reasons made me think otherwise.
If I choose to camp this would meann having to carry extra equipment which I'd rather not have to do.
Also, after walking 20 miles every day I think I deserve a comfortable bed every night!
Can I sponsor you in the 'old' fashioned way?
You most certainly can. As well as having the 'Just Giving' page (please see link attached) which allows donations to be made directly from bank accounts, there will also be a manual sponsorship form that I will permanently have with me, so donations can be listed on this form and funds collected after the walk has been completed. But I must stress that as the event is 6 months away I wouldn't neccesarily expect many donations just yet.
Donations Link: http://www.justgiving.com/SteveMuskett27010
Can I join you on your route?
By all means, the more the merrier. Also, you don't have to do the entire walk ~ you could always do just a single stage if this proves more appealing. I am quite prepared to trek on my own but any company would be greatly appreciated, although two of my work colleagues (Curph & Ross) have recently expressed an interest to join me ~ cheers guys!
What training are you currently undertaking?
I'm commited to walking every Sunday between now and then to help prepare me as best I can. Once next year arrives, I shall step-up this regime to include Saturdays, and then once March hits I shall endeavour to walk every night in addition to the weekends.
I recently purchased some new walking boots and I'm glad to report that I've sufficiently broken them in as I trekked the entire length of The Centurion Way last Sunday, including all around the West Dean estate for over four hours ~ making an approximate distance of 16 miles!
How will we know that you've actually completed the walk?
Good question ~ If I do the walk by myself I guess you'll only have my word for it, but I like to think my honesty and integrity will prove sufficient! Lol.
But I'll be taking regular pictures showing locations and uploading them via Facebook.
Unfortunately, I won't have access to a PC/laptop so my blog won't be getting updated until after the event.
If you have any further queries or questions please don't hesitate to contact me either via this blog by leaving comments, or by posting on my Facebook wall, or sending me an e-mail to: stevemuskett@yahoo.com
I shall be alternating my weekly blogs from now on between fundraising updates and random subjects which prove relevant at the time, as I don't want to continually bang on about the charity walk and bore everybody rigid! Lol.

Guilty Secrets & The Reasons Why...
"while you torture yourself with what's behind ya, torture yourself with what awaits ya,
draggin' that guilt and regret inside ya, anxious of the goals that always evade ya,
your mind will find a way to be unkind to you somehow,
but all we really have is happening to us right now..."
As previously stated due to the condition of someone very special and extremely close to me, I have been left with a total sense of helplessness and frustration. This goes against my normally cool, calm, and collected demeanour, although I do try to hide these feelings and bury them deep down inside.
There is also a sense of karma which has kicked in, and this is where the 'guilty secrets' revisit me.
To attempt to move on and not dwell on some of my past events, I have thrown myself into reading, writing, and researching for my South Downs Way charity walk next year. Currently it is the thought of completing the 100 miles from Winchester to Eastbourne which drives me on, and gives me a sense of purpose and something to strive for...but try as I might to walk away my worries, concerns, and memories, certain feelings of guilt are never far away from me.
Firstly, although I have done nothing wrong and I know that there isn't anything that I can actually do other than provide as much love and support as possible, I do feel a sense of guilt regarding that special lady in my life. Why her, and what did she do to deserve this? Is being attached to me a curse which brings all of this ill health and bad luck?
Then there is a guilty secret that I've been harbouring for quite a few years.
When I achieved a promotion and a massive increase in salary in a previous job, it was with the knowledge that this position was gained in rather dubious circumstances. My ex-boss had been committing numerous misdemeanours of which the 'powers-that-be' had become aware. These 'chiefs' then lent on me severely to 'shop' my boss, which I was loathe to do. But once it became clear that my own job was hanging by a thread unless I obliged, I had little option but to help them with their enquiries.
Rather than being sacked my ex-boss was forced to resign, resulting in me obtaining his position as a direct replacement. Knowing that I had a part to play in these circumstances never sat comfortably with me.
What tragically and further compounded the issue, was that a year or so later he contracted a brain tumour and within a further year he had passed away.
I have forever wondered that maybe I was a contributory factor in the brain tumour occurring in the first place, due to the stress he was no doubt under caused by his resignation.
But I guess this is something that I just have to live with.
Finally, I recently became aware that an old friend who I used to live with, and who's young daughter I also used to take care of, had committed suicide.
I walked out of her life two years ago due to various reasons, which I have previously described in great detail in an earlier blog, and yet when I learned of her death the guilty feelings returned once again.
Had I stayed in her life could I have prevented her suicide?
I seem to have a history of being attached to, or being involved with, women either in need of help or in need of someone to take care of them.
It appears that it is in my nature to be atuned to any suffering or cries of help around me, which I am unable to shut out. So I tend to become a sort of 'rescuer' to others, as I'm more concerned with their welfare than that of my own.
This attribute, quality, or curse (you can decide) is part of my make-up, DNA, and psyche, and I guess will always remain within me...as will the continual burden and sense of guilt concerning the issues above.

Fundraising Update
A quick update on my progress with regards to my plans to walk the entire length of The South Downs Way, from Winchester to Eastbourne (100 miles) next April in support of Cancer Research UK.
* The proposed date is scheduled to be from April 23rd to April 27th.
* Cancer Research have contacted me & confirmed that they will officially support me.
* Fundraising materials have just arrived in the post!
* South Downs National Park have been notified with regards to my plans.
* I have consulted with my employer who will match any donations upto £300
The provisional route is anticipated to be as follows:
Please find attached a link which gives anybody the opportunity to sponsor me or make a donation, although as the event is well over 6 months away I wouldn't expect much activity as yet. As I have previously stated, I just want to do this event properly, with good preparation and organisation, which is why I am so far in advance at this stage. Also, by informing everybody early it gives people the chance to think about joining me on my walk if they felt so inclined?
http://www.justgiving.com/SteveMuskett27010
Although I share and post my blog on Facebook, some of my work colleagues may not be able to access the information about my event via this social network, so I shall also be circulating an e-mail to those individuals shortly. Next up will be a blog giving some further reasons why I'm doing this walk, followed by another blog with answers to frequently asked questions (FAQ's).
Many thanks in advance for all your support.
Kind regards.

Walkin' On...Officially!
After over two weeks of relative rest and relaxation it's back to work!
As previously stated, my holiday plans changed considerably from my original intentions, and although I was extremely disappointed and felt rather lonely I did make the most of the opportunity to do some research and preparation for my future plans.
So following on from my pervious blog where I introduced my intentions to arrange an organised charity walk for Cancer Research UK next year, I thought I'd briefly update you on my progress to date.
Today I officially registered my event with Cancer Research UK with a scheduled date to be confirmed, but definitely to happen in April 2012.
A sponsors pack is due to be sent shortly, as well as contact from the local area manager advising on fundraising activity.
During the past fortnight I've researched the South Down Way to assertain the best direction, route, and stop-off locations, and I'm now in the process of confirming this with the South Down Way Committee.
I've continued with my preparation and training, as I aim to build up my stamina and fitness.
This has recently included five trips to and from my parents house (a total distance of 60 miles); regular treks around the Goodwood and West Dean estates; occassional walks along the Chichester Canal tow path including the adjoining Salterns Way trail to Fishbourne; and finally spending quite a few hours pounding the local beat distributing flyers promoting the current Chequers Vintage Celebrations.
Next up is to purchase a decent pair of waterproof walking boots in anticipation of the forthcoming winter months, as I fully intend on carrying on training regardless of the conditions.
I also hope by my next blog that I shall have some details regarding support from my employer, as well as possible other sponsorship details. In addition a future blog will also contain some answers to certain questions which have so far been posed.
So until next time, many thanks in advance for all of your support.

Ramblin' For Cancer Research UK
It's been two weeks since my previous blog due to holidays, but as I said back then I intended to use my time off as constructively as possible...and believe me I have!
My 'Ramblin' Man' blog is now taking on a totally different perspcetive, (and a quite literal one too) as it's going to take on an even deeper significance.
My plans involve a personal and important project which is for a cause very close to my heart.
I intend to walk the entire length of the South Down Way National Trail next April 2012 to raise funds for Cancer Research UK ~ this represents 100 miles from Winchester to Eastbourne, and I hope to cover this distance in only five days!
Now I'm aware that this is quite far in advance (over six months), but I want to do this right and I want to do this properly, as there is much to organise. Such as:
* obtaining permission from Cancer Research UK;
* seeking acceptance from the South Down Way National Trail representatives;
* arranging suitable sponsorship through friends & companies alike;
* confirming agreement from my employer to book the time off work, and gain their support;
* arranging the specific dates and stage locations;
* booking the appropriate over night accomodation;
* build up my fitness & stamina after my own personal health issues.
Over the course of the next few months I shall be finalising further details, and updating events via this blog.
I have recently started getting in training over my holidays, and every day I have undertaken on average a 12 mile trek. In fact I think that when I return to work next week, I'd be the only person to have ever returned from a holiday having actually lost weight through exercise, rather than put it on due to over-indulgence!
Any support would be greatly appreciated and if anyone wanted to join me on my quest then that would obviously be greatly welcomed.
Please also be aware that I will not be asking for any donations as yet, as it's far too early at this stage and I'm just doing all the groundwork and research.
Once I've registered officially with Cancer Research UK, and obtained more specific details I shall share any relevant information then.
In the meantime if you have any enquiries then please do not hesitate to contact me by either commenting on this blog; by posting on my Facebook Wall; or you can contact me on my personal e-mail address which I shall pick up daily from September 15th: stevemuskett@yahoo.com
I shall leave you with a quote from Soren Kierkegaard, which I recently read and found totally appropriate:
"above all do not lose your desire to walk: every day I walk myself into a state of well-being and walk away from every illness; I have walked myself into my best thoughts, and I know of no thought so burdensome that one cannot walk away from it."
Thank you in advance for your support.
