You Can Hit a Home Run
I went to the pharmacy and market today. I was in luck! They had everything that I needed. Then I remembered that someone told me about a walking path across the street from the market. Feeling adventurous I decided to try it. After crossing a bridge over a stream that rushed over, under and around… Read more »
When It's Not What You Expected
After five years of practice and three months of intense teacher training and a grueling two-and-a-half hour personalized test I received my certification to teach qigong in the lineage of the MogaDao Institute of Santa Fe.

Here I Go Again!
Here I go again writing about apologies. I would say that I am sorry for that but I’m not. There is more to be said since apologies are such an important part of relationships. In the old movie “Love Story” when the male heart-throb says “Love means never having to say you are sorry” I… Read more »
