2025 is a few hours away!
December 23
Today is the second to last day of the Santa visit. Tomorrow anticipation will climax as children around the world wait with anticipation, go to bed and find it hard to sleep, wonder what will happen over night. The magic of a man, in a red suit, now destined to bring toys, gifts and whatContinue reading “December 23”
Generative Aging
The Change of Year is upon us soon and as we shift focus from 2024 to 2025 it is being realized we are ¼ of the way through this century. Remember Y2K? Do you realize babies born in the year 2000 are now 25 years old? Time marches on at a speed by which weContinue reading “Generative Aging”
Moments in Time
As our children grow and become young adults, then parents themselves, there are moments of beauty that surface. My Shane was always an inquisitive sort. He loved to tear things down and see how they worked. I remember helping him carry a piece of equipment down to the basement, when he was about 11 yearsContinue reading “Moments in Time”

I take this time to prepare myself to “be” in the world and liveContinue reading “Am I becoming a cat …. ?”

So, he says, when God asked his soul, “What do you want to learn when you go to earth?” Dr. Dyer says he answered, “resilience”. HeContinue reading “Patience”
Creating your own shed show
The words seem to be pouring out of me lately, and my fingers are hungry to find the keys to the new laptop and splay these words on the page. As I am hungry to write, I am reading and listening/watching voraciously to books, podcasts and videos where I can learn from others what theyContinue reading “Creating your own shed show”
The door to the east…
Each day I learn and grow deeper into myself, and it is beautiful. Do you sit in the canoe on the surface of the lake and wish you could dive into the depths of your own heart? Today is the first of February’s three gatherings at the local libraries where I have set up andContinue reading “The door to the east…”
