As we get ready for the new year I got thinking about how to really make this coming year more than the previous ones. It comes down to time and how we spend it. We always seem to find time for funerals, illnesses, sick days, bad news and so many negative moments. How about reframing […]

Leaving it on the table
The question was asked innocently enough. In fact, it was almost said so matter of factly that you sensed that the answer was a given. But as each person began to answer it it was clear that it was anything but a given. I wonder how you would have answered the question. Or , after […]
Shedding the moment in the moment
I read the book when it first came out. It captured me completely. But then I watched the movie. I never thought anyone could film this story but there it was. Wonderful. Recaptures you as the book first did. It got me thinking about so many things. Storytelling in a grand way. Our personal storytelling. […]
A reframing of the narrative
The saying on the tee shirt said it all. It was perfect on so many levels. I mean there we were on Christmas eve morning, at Crossfit, working out doing the wall balls, ball slams, push presses, snatches and squats over and over and…you get the idea by now. But there we were refusing to […]
Digging deep and spreading kindness
As the year winds down, I look back on 2012. What a year of change. Quite amazing how it played out. It didn’t start that way. But it sure is ending that way. Change. It just can’t be denied or avoided. It is a good thing. It prevents us from just phoning in our life […]

The hopeless feeling. The sense of lack of any rationality to it. How to respond. How to react. What to believe. A moment […]
Fighting against the ordinary
An endangered species. Ever think about the endangered species. I am not talking just about certain animals that may have been put on some such list. But rather certain qualities in people that seem endangered these days. We get so used to the mediocrity that we don’t even recognize the truly exceptional any longer. We […]
The living legacy
Well , I looked for one or more books that brings together my take on this improbable journey we are all on. Although I found bits and pieces here and there, I decided to see if I could put it down in one place. So I started to write my story to see if it […]
