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 [...]
It's usually a sign. Something needs to go. Something. 'But what' you ask. 'But what? Won't my world come crashing down if I let go one leggo stick? Maybe. Or maybe you'll find a new supporting beam. 'Leggo my leggo' you protest! And boom, boom, boom.....a tumble goes that neat little world you kept yourself [...]
I'm adding a Green Screen (ChromaKey) to MY world and I'm as excited as I've been in quite some time... If you are not familiar with the attributes of a Green Screen, allow me please to share. A Green Screen is used in filming, giving the advantage of adding whatever backdrop you choose to the [...]
When it's time, how interesting to feel the lights go out in areas of our house, our hearts, our souls. Maybe not altogether, but certain things which had a shiny allure, dim, as that's what happens as we shift to other things calling forth our attention, our passions, our hearts and interest. And when those [...]
I've been out of my own pocket lately...diverted by a number of keen surprises, epiphanies of late really. My earlier surrender, post meltdown, catapulting me into new territory which has me both delighted and standing a bit quiet amidst the flurry of 'little me's' scurrying about, running around me in a smidge of a [...]
Consider this. If you tune in, really tune in to what is unfolding in your life, can't you feel when things are shifting and turning, realigning in a sense. I'm not just talking when things seem to feel better, or you start getting along with your wife, or you get hired to a more fitting [...]
I felt it....this morning. Unable to sleep....doing my toss-turn-flop-head churning-dreaming thing I do when I can't sleep. (it's the dogs and their incessant licking that woke me.....oooooh, my pups....CLEAN pups)! Okay, Mercury's in retrograde (and more specifically, here)....my friend Louise keeps me up to date with such things. I'm never sure what that means though [...]
"Pleasure is very seldom found where it is sought; our brightest blazes of gladness are commonly kindled by unexpected sparks." - Samuel Johnson, 18th Century English writer Samuel Johnson knew....he knew about the 'push me, pull you cycle' which when released, frees up all manner of ease. (He was an erudite man indeed, writing [...]
With a hint of fall in the air, despite the interminable heat in Georgia, I know when I'm in transition, and I'm not talking the small moving from here to there sort of thing, but the kind when I stop BUYING furniture, and instead find myself moving it around in my house, at my business. [...]
'Don't be afraid to be outrageous; the critics will shoot you down anyway.' Sir Laurence Olivier It's true....working to please the world will just get you in one mess a trouble. My best friend 2Lu, (who has a milestone birthday this very day), tells me often to not have expectations and I'll never be [...]
