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 [...]
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 [...]
Just do it! Hallelujah BB Webb
One drip of consciousness into the next....our slow awakenings. Mine come slowly and then periodically, in solid and sudden bursts. BOOM! We see. We hear. We know. We know, on NO uncertain terms we see ourselves, our path anew. And the awkwardness of ambivalence and compromise leaves. The choice to love oneself becomes stronger than [...]
I hadn't put it together until just this evening, but my father, Bob Banta, (who dubbed me Barbara Suzanne Banta) was a BB as well. Happy Birthday to my father, Bob Banta. He died some time ago and honestly, I feel a greater bond with him since his death than perhaps when he was of [...]
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 [...]
I'm working on a new talk which I'm eager to get out and about throughout not just my neck of the woods, in and around Atlanta, but globally somehow. And yes, in PERSON, not just over the Internet Super Highway! I believe in FACE to FACE communications! With that, I'll be speaking about how we [...]
How would you conduct your life? We've all considered this, or pondered the thought at least momentarily. I would fret so much less over the seeming big things which distract me, make me sad, frightened or upset. I'd say 'what the hell'. Honestly, 'what the hell'. Who really cares, I'm gonna die soon anyhow. How [...]
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; [...]
I'm enamored (is that the correct word this morning) with the process of being human on this planet. Enamored isn't the best word, but it'll have to do for the moment. I felt a net lift from my myopic view of the world this week. Some things became crystal clear. And if not CRYSTAL clear, [...]
