I remember being in gym class in school…the early years. The challenge was the rope climb. Climb that rope, touch the ceiling, get back down. Try not to get rope burns. No one wore gloves then so you always “burned” your hands on the rope sooner or later. It was such a test of wills. […]
About Paul
My teachers
Age does not matter. It truly is irrelevant. The proof of that reality is what my grandkids teach me every day. I see courage. Refusing to be stopped in wanting to try anything and everything. They are fearless. They see the world as only possibilities. They want to learn. Try. Seek. Do. Whether learning to […]
The quiet, part 2
The quiet seems to have hit a chord. There was a time when quiet was alive and well. There was a time when quiet was better understood. Appreciated. Respected. Cherished. Now it seems that it is just that place you have to get through to arrive at the “important, good stuff” .. Nothing could be […]
The quiet
It was early as I headed out for the morning Crossfit. As my car crossed the expansion bridge I heard some horns honking and saw a few cars cutting other cars off and everyone ,it seemed, was on a phone or texting…whether in a car or on a bike or walking on the street. It […]
A state of grace
It had been quite a while since the Crossfit workout almost brought me to my knees and nausea. I mean they are all challenging and test your very fiber but this one was different. I don’t know why but just was. The 20 minutes ticked off like the clock was broken and only worked sporadically. […]
Be the good news
A little good news. That’s all I was hoping for. Not a lot of good news. I wasn’t going to be greedy about it all. Just a little would do the trick. But good news seems to be a rare thing these days. Doesn’t it seem like everything has turned into just one bad reality […]
Friendship in the day
Today. It seems to get a bad rap. We so often talk about what happened yesterday. We let it linger with us. Fret over it. Let yesterday live on when we need to let it go. We dream about tomorrow. Yet, it is today that is real. It is this moment, this day, that calls out […]
The magic of the ordinary
I just learned so much over the last few days. Well, maybe it was more like rediscovering part of myself. I learned to appreciate the things that we usually ignore or , even find annoying. But not over the last few days. You see the grandkids were visiting. Sweet and gentle souls. Excited about the […]
A morning moment
It was 5 pull ups, 10 wall balls, 15 kettle bell swings. As many rounds as possible over a 20 minute time frame. Crossfit at its most basic and challenging. 9 rounds later there was about 20 seconds left. 20 seconds. Everything is relative. 20 seconds is so little a moment in time. Yet 20 […]
The beach, a new day and a promise
What is it about a new year that gives us hope? I mean, it is just another day on the flipping of pages on a calendar and yet we pause. We celebrate. We pray. We reflect. We dream. We resolve. We believe. It is our craving to find a better way. An answer to a […]
