Sometimes you meet someone who is so authentic, genuine, kind and warm that it gives you hope that we will get through the latest tragic moment.  You know they are noble, decent and just want to bring joy to those around them. Be one of them. It just makes life easier for all. And you […]

Passive injustice

So often events take place that you know are not just. You know you must act, do, say something… yet you don’t for whatever reason.  When you stand silent you are the passive injustice that doesn’t confront the active injustice. Both injustices then feed off each other. Be the just one.

The wait

So often we wait for some “thing”…usually good to happen…to “finally” celebrate the gift of life. We wait.  Yet, sooner or later, hopefully, not too “later” we realize that life itself is the gift. The “thing” we are waiting for has arrived! Don’t wait. It has been here all the time.

The finite meets the infinite

Maybe that is why I wrote In These Five Breaths.  That moment in time when the finite meets the infinite. It is hard for me to get my thoughts around this reality.  That last breath when finite meets  infinite. What happens?  We are so used to walls and doors and barriers and then all that […]

In These Five Breaths

Sooner or later the last is upon us. The issue is you never know when that will be. On a quiet Sunday afternoon after a great lunch with friends or after a busy day at work or after a romantic evening with your loved one or during a great sporting event…  or after 90 plus […]
