How much is too much....of anything? Work, worry, 'down' time, wine time, control, fun, perfume, tv, talking, animals living in your home, family, sadness, alone time, being with people time, indifference, concern, defense, blame, ego, heart, hurt, caffeine, pressure, anger, flapjacks, Coco Krispies, disappointment, scheming, flying, creating, dreaming... Just thinking. Things are brewing. Keepin it [...]
We'll be redeemed. We'll be reunited. We'll be challenged tomorrow. We'll be surprised and delighted this next year. We'll wish we'd held back. We'll wish we'd bounced forward. We'll get more than we want. We'll not get enough. We'll feel misunderstood. We'll feel like a rock star. We'll feel heart breaking disappointment. We'll be surprised [...]
The Weepies, (I've been on a year long kick with the Weepies) have great lyrics...one being, 'you can't steal happiness', (I believe that to be true, or power unless you let someone TAKE it from you), and I like the thought that: All my troubles are in the rearview mirror! Another Weepie [...]
News alert to my psyche...hope (the context I know) is dangerous. I'm sitting with an awareness this morning of what a therapist I used to 'hang out with' called, 'the hungry ghost'. This ghost, to me, is the one that holds on to some belief, some aspiration of change, transformation, illusion, (mostly in others) [...]
I'm considering the importance of details in some matters and then again, not, in others. In my business, you bet, and accountability measures ARE being put into place at every switch and turn. I'm surveying it all, and finding that just like a bolt can become loose on a bicycle, so can the details in [...]
This line of thought came to me today. It's a good thought. Consider your assumptions. I'm looking at mine. We really don't know so many things...why people do what they do, who really is watching over us, loving us, in the seen and unseen, why events in our life occur the way they do. I'm [...]
The ability to see, to really SEE and its blessing, strikes me this moment. To see, to be seen, I sight, eyesight. How fortunate are we, am I. Eye! Aye! BB Webb
...as much as the intention behind your actions. How 'Zen' of me you might say....or not.... I watched a typical Hollywood-esk movie this evening with my 'caretaking' friend....we've watched a few during my recouping time this week. I was struck (again) at how narrow our vision of 'reality' or 'truth', 'a truth' or 'belief' is [...]
I have been sleeping a lot during my eye surgery recovery and dreaming. I dream a lot anyway....while awake and especially when asleep. Maurice Sendak's characters are tame compared to what show up on my inner HD widescreen. I've also had time to stop the normal fast spinning ferris wheel of my life for a [...]
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 [...]
