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 [...]
I have some stories to tell. I do. They're from all the things I observe in any given day and ooooooh, I see EVERYthing! Ask my team at Carl House! The stories have been mounting up and if I don't share them, I may clog up and die, hardened arteries from lack of expression. A [...]
"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 [...]

My best friend 2Lu, (who has a milestone birthday this very day), tells me often to not have expectations and I'll never be [...]
I've not been my writing self of late....and, my body is not my own.....someone has inhabited it I fear, temporarily for sure, but it does not feel my own. I move differently than I recall, I feel leaden heavy, as though someone poured cement down my throat while I slept and blew up my skin [...]
Summertime, and the living is.....busy, full, in moments hectic, swift and moving forward. No, no slow summertime hammock swinging these days, not for me. I am spinning a web of solutions...solutions for things that need them... So, I watch this mighty spider outside the door of my garage.....she shows me how to patiently weave and [...]
I've always produced. Always. I was making up skits and plays when I was 4, dressed in plastic high heels, often wore a cape like Mighty Mouse (from the cartoons), and would jump off chairs feeling rather 'mighty' myself. At one point I thought it'd be fun to be an elephant when I grew up, [...]
A colleague sent me a card today with the following quote... 'The only people for me are the mad ones, the ones who are mad to live, mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time, the ones who never yawn or say a commonplace things, but burn, burn, burn, [...]
