It’s all in the timing

2010-12-14T13:26:22-07:00By |Compassion|

There is SO much to share, so much to write about....and at the moment, as I work toward the end of what has been one HECK of a year....I have little time for my favorite pass time (Interesting expressing that...'pass time'). I wonder with that....if I'm correct with that expression. My sister-in-law told me once [...]

Entrances and Exits…Tender is the Day

2010-12-09T09:01:54-07:00By |Compassion|

There has been much shifting afoot and 'things' seem to be sorting themselves out, though certainly not always with total ease. My friend Karen, (beloved wife of my now deceased and treasured mentor Tony Montanaro) yesterday sent me this quote..... "I want to do to you what spring does to the cherry trees." Pablo Neruda [...]

General…..Manager? Thank You Betty White!

A major 'aha'....(they're coming like popcorn kernels these days) hit me like a small stone on the head this morning. I've felt changes brewing within a lot over the last weeks and months....(I've had a direction in mind for quite some time)...but of late, I'm being 'popped' around quite a bit and that's fine...I can [...]

The Real Reason

I was reminded as I sat quietly this early morning....a full day ahead of me of relative freedom.... Desiderata Go placidly amid the noise and the haste, and remember what peace there may be in silence. As far as possible without surrender be on good terms with all persons. Speak your truth quietly and clearly; [...]

Men…..Women, Hearts and Minds

2010-09-12T22:11:07-07:00By |Compassion|

We all know we are different, men and women. I'm thinking today about really how we are the same, though come at our desires and needs differently. I'll venture to say that even with sexuality, with a commensurate blend of mind and heart, men AND women seek fulfillment of pleasure, (yep, satisfaction) and connection there [...]

Deleting she did go.

I woke this morning, oooooh, after a long and luxurious sleep, my favorite...to a kind, thoughtful, sweet and loving note from a new friend. It was so different from the sort of communiques I've received over the past many years....in many ways. I sat with it, considering the sort of person who might write such [...]

Letter to the Editor…

2010-07-09T09:06:53-07:00By |Compassion|

Sometimes you just have to speak out..... Letter to the Editor: I’m writing in response to the letter written by Bob Richardson to the editor regarding the house under construction on 16 Homer Street, the house currently with a blue tarp on the roof in Maysville. As a citizen also concerned with assuring that [...]

What I see today

2010-05-30T02:00:20-07:00By |Compassion|

I'm midway along this new adventure, a surgery in fact (and as my pal Lulu and I love to say, 'the details don't matter', as often they don't). I traveled to have some eye repair, my first reminiscant surgery when I was 7 years old, then 8. I'm in good care with a doctor I [...]

Revelation Give it back, move along!

"The greatest good you can do for another is not just to share your riches, but to reveal to him his own." - Benjamin Disraeli And might I (cause he's ringing in my earballs and eyedrums this morning), paraphrase Dr. Jung's sentiment, love being, 'the process of gently guiding someone into themselves'. Noble intent indeed..... [...]
