Sooner or later. Mostly later it seems. We wake up to the reality that the sands are slipping from one side of the hour glass to the other and …. The hour glass can’t be turned over to start again. Sooner or later…usually later we open our eyes to the unbending truth that we are […]

Getting out alive
Each day stands alone. Each day has its own story. Each day begins and ends. Each day is an endangered species. Each day is fragile. Frail. Ageless. And each day can be the beginning of a new adventure or the end of the entire tale. So think about it. No one gets out of life […]
Spread the message
It is easy to just keep doing the same things over and over. The routine. Yet each day is unique. The day should not be a rut. The relationships. The connections. The unfolding legacy. Each day is an endangered species. Each day you can begin again. Each morning the sun rises and there is unlimited […]
New year thoughts.
Every year the ritual takes place. Farewells and resolutions. This time it feels different. It feels more. Maybe the health issues this past year added to the drama of life. Open heart surgery I guess gets its point across. We are strong and fragile at the same time. The ultimate human paradox. So how to […]
Not even a contest
Not even a contest. You watch the sunset. Or maybe you are an early riser and watch the sunrise. During the day you take a break from the routine and look up. Or look to the horizon. Or maybe you take a moment during the day and watch your child play. You reflect that you […]

The accident. The injury. The wrong turn. The right turn and happy surprise. The good news. The sudden sad news. […]
A gentle insightful moment
Last night we saw Garrison Keillor at the Paramount in Denver. The art of the story teller. The humorist. The observer. The clever eye that has a kindness about the things it sees. The connection between us. The beginnings and ends. The connecting threads that bind us together. How I wish there were more Garrisons […]
The deep
The deep. The connection between us must go deep. There seems to be surface living today. Almost hit and run connections. Rushing someplace else. Looking away. Texting in the middle of calls. What would it feel like to put away the distractions and be present with yourself and with one who matters. I have been […]
True north
We all need a true north. A core belief that gets us through the dark moments. A moral compass when confronted with challenges of all shapes and sizes. I have come to believe it is a sense of personal meaning for how we spend our time here. It seems that contentment is a by product […]
Heaven
I remember when I was very young. My dad sat with me and said maybe this is heaven. Maybe where we are is heaven and we just have to embrace it. See it and live it. Maybe this is the Garden of Eden now. But our choices determine whether we recognize it or walk right […]
