The destination

The journey. The destination. They are one and the same. How you live your life each day, how you treat people, the choices you make, the people you help, the kindnesses you share, the smiles you bring to others, the passion with which you experience life…it all is part of the journey, which is the […]

The unassuming leader

His mind was made for things other than what he did. He was creative. He was witty. He was very smart…not just books but life smart. Yet, life had thrown him a curve ball. Between the depression and illnesses, he settled into the routine of 9-5 work at a factory type setting. Important work but […]

The hour glass

Let’s reframe it. Sit back. Turn off all the gadgets. Shut off all the noise. Enter the silence. The beautiful, lyrical silence.

Before you go

Once before I go. Peter Allen. It is just the best. He was always a favorite of mine. Just totally present. The boy from Oz.

You can feel it in the air

You can feel it in the air. You just know when it is present. It can’t be described except in terms that are so over used for all the wrong reasons but when it is present it makes you feel better again about our chances to get it right and tell a beautiful story of […]

Hour of the Wolf is a wake up call

This past year, we wandered Vietnam, Cambodia, Mexico, and different states in the United States. Each journey opened our eyes, hearts and souls to new experiences. New adventures. Diverse cultures. New ideas. The beauty of experiencing things for the first time again. For the first time again stuck with me. We seem to becoming so […]

Time and the flipping coin

In Hour of the Wolf, I write about the flipping coin. The randomness of events in any day,turning left or right, and good or bad things happening in a split moment. The coin is constantly flipping. So then what is the lesson of this coin toss? The day matters. Each moment is relevant. The only […]

Look up and find your life

We looked up. That was it. We just looked up. It was night. It was dark. It was chilly but not cold and we looked up. The night sky was filled with stars. It goes on forever. Earth is just one other dot in the tapestry that we know as the universe. The universe. Massive. […]
