Wander and wonder

Wander and wonder.  It seems that when you break out of the routine of everyday everyday and wander it permits you to wonder outside the norm and recapture who you are and the journey you are on. The routine has a way of freezing you and the issues in place …no matter how creative you […]

The flipping coin

It is all a flipping coin. Every day. Every moment. All these coins are flipping in the air. The randomness of life and choices and events colliding. All we can do is  stay focused. Establish core beliefs. Have faith in who we are and trust our better judgment. For me the keys are being centered, […]

Hour of the Wolf

Over the last few months I have had the pleasure and honor of discussing Wolf with a number of  groups. It seems that the link with so many is the concept of time, choices and consequences. Time is such a gift. A gift that is usually ignored until it has just about run out. It […]

The connection

Sometimes it just happens. Not planned.  Not expected. Not anticipated. There is this connection between certain people. It is unexplainable. There is just this connection. Is it spiritual?

Choices and consequences

They could seem minor or major. They could seem insignificant or not. But only time will tell the true consequence. There is always a consequence but the true one usually takes time to show itself. In Hour of the Wolf  I write about choices and decisions. Turning left or right and what would have been […]

Past present

Today is one year since quintuple bypass heart surgery. A year. 365 days. The past and the present collide at moments like this. Time becomes irrelevant. It is just you in your life with all the experiences that fill it up. And then you turn around and another day..year.. Moment .. Experience .  Life goes […]
