A march of decency

We are not promised anything. We are not guaranteed anything. We wake up and the opportunities , the challenges and the possibilities await us. We then choose. We then react. We then act. We then respond. But it comes down to our good intentions. So much of what we see and hear today is so […]

The peak awaits you at any age

The peak. Don’t think that there is a time restriction on reaching it.  Some hit the peak early, while others hit their stride much later. And some can hit it again and again as they challenge themselves in new ways. So don’t believe that the peak is behind you. Don’t think that there is an […]

This year…find time to live

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 […]
