  • Beautiful Is…

    Beautiful is the northern landscape, trees aflame with the color of dying leaves. Those same trees will soon reach to the winter sun, their bare arms twisted and strong, ready to take on a sheath of ice and snow. Beautiful is the first pale green leaf bud poking through, soon to be joined in a…

  • Quote of the Week…

    “Supermarket tabloids and celebrity gossip shows are not just innocently shallow entertainment, but a fundamental part of a much larger movement that involves apathy, greed and hierarchy.” Joseph Gordon-Levitt, 1981 –

Isn’t that what makes gossip so much fun? The hilarity, the ridiculousness, the fantasy of it all? What? That’s crazy.…

  • Look Up…

    Look down, look all around. Observe Your World. Keep your senses on alert for the new, the colorful, the repeated themes and connections. I’ve been wanting to read “Island” by Aldous Huxley yet again, which begins with a mynah calling “Attention,” and “Here and now, boys, here and now.” Imagine having a bird on your…

  • Joy…

    In honor of Labor Day, here is a repost from a while back. I hope you enjoy… Of all the things you choose to do each day, I hope joy is your companion. Sing while you wash the dishes. Fling flour while baking, then dance when you clean up the mess. May you have opportunities…

  • Adventure Awaits…

    I love adventures. Friends have hiked the Camino de Santiago in Spain or climbed ancient steps to Machu Pichu. One day I may add them to my own big escapades that include exploring the underground villages of Cappadocia and the sacred churches of Lalibela. While some adventures stand out as exciting or unusual, they don’t…
