What is one thing that the faltering economy, anxiety and fear can’t take away? Your imagination! When feeling stressed, unsettled or stuck there is one vacation that doesn’t rely on a plane or payment. Actually it pays you when you use it. It takes you out of confinement and exercises your mind in a way… Read more »
I have been wondering what is the bigger picture; what is the meaning on a global and universal level? I sense that if we are awake we will see extraordinary acts both large and small. In my small sphere in the past two weeks I saw two sisters who haven’t talked in years connect over… Read more »
We need novel ways to look at the unique health crisis upon us. The graphs of the spread of Covid-19 in this country and others scare me. Today after watching an online lecturer outline the spread of the virus I got chills and ran to take my temperature. It was normal. The guidelines to curb… Read more »

Yesterday we had a snowstorm. It snowed all day and night and piled up the most snow that we’ve had in a long time. This morning I ventured out to go to the chiropractor. Just as I thought! As I backed the car out of the garage it got stuck and wouldn’t go forward or… Read more »
My mom is so cool! At 92-years-old she has defied all platitudes and expectations. An original thinker, she was always before her time.
