Here’s a thought to chew on.
"We do not see things as they are. We see them as we are." - Talmudic Proverb Ahhhhhh says me as I transform a funk into a lotus flower. Why? Because I can! One must ALWAYS leave room for an opening! And FYI.....In Hinduism and Buddhism the lotus flower symbolizes awakening to the spiritual [...]
Wine-ing or Whining? And then there are days…
When we forget....there is just no simpler way to put it. Forget or perhaps revert....to old ways that just don't work anymore. It's like getting stuck in the gutter lane when bowling....you're cruising along just fine and then suddenly your tire hits the berm, and oooooh, you lean to the left hoping it won't get [...]
Twelve Years Ago Today…and then, Today.
Twelve years ago my world flipped around, me like a cat in a dryer....a sturdy Maytag, adament on keeping me tumbling for some time.... Twelve years ago my mom died. Kathryn Royer Vogel Myers Banta Richards Richards Vogel, left the physical plain and I was catapulted into 'adulthood'. Feeling her soul leave her [...]
And then there was a shift…
Have you ever noticed when something shifts...needn't be a major life event, nonetheless, it's a shift of magnitude that takes place somewhere, somewhere within yourself. You wake with a new view of your world somehow. The greens are greener, the smells, better than you remembered. The house you've lived in for several years is more [...]
Letter to the Editor…
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 [...]
Pan Meets Ganesh

Really half man half centaur, though I rather like this depiction of him. Both embody aspects I admire, Pan with his fertile nature and ability to beckon a crowd and Ganesh, for his knowing.....he [...]
Seven Years Ago Today…
I opened my business....my Carl House business. Seven years ago there was so much I did not know. Seven years ago I demonstrated 'moving forward as if'....as if I could create whatever my mind imagined, and more. Seven years ago today I was, like today, dreaming up things and seeing what would happen 'or better' [...]
Survival of the Fittest You Say?
"It is not the strongest of the species that survive, nor the most intelligent, but the ones most responsive to change." - Charles Darwin And might I add to Mr. Darwin's theory...the ones whose hearts are open. And, you can't know the difference until you've experienced that openness. And when you feel it again close, [...]
Freedom of WHAT?
'It is great wisdom to know how to be silent and to look at neither the remarks, nor the deeds, nor the lives of others.' – Saint John of the Cross A friend sent that quote to me the other week. Wisdom, knowledge and choice, to me, is freedom....assessing where your time is [...]
