  • A Birthday Celebration

    America the Beautiful. Lyrics: Katherine Bates Music: Samuel A. Ward This photo was taken a couple of years ago at a Fourth of July concert.

  • Not my Circus

    Not my circus, not my monkeys. Polish Proverb  I have this proverb, as wallpaper, on my iPhone. The moment I read it, I could relate. Even though experience has taught me better, when I see someone or something with a problem, I want to fix it.  During my career in management, there were many things […]

  • Keep Moving

    Life is like riding a bicycle. To keep your balance you must keep moving. Albert Einstein I wasn’t worried about being bored when I retired. My list of what I want to do, each day, is usually left unfinished. There are mundane things like, doing the laundry or cleaning the house that fill the day. […]

  • Rational Opposition

    She did not think he deserved the compliment of rational opposition. Sense and Sensibility Jane Austin   I find as I become older I am less inclined engage in discussions I realize will go nowhere. Someone with more time than I can wage this war.

  • Not today.

    What do we say to the god of death? Not today. Game of Thrones  George R.R. Martin Coming a little late to the party, we just finished watching all the seasons of Game of Thrones. As I thought might be, it was very violent and a touch misogynist. I’ve heard some viewers didn’t like the […]

  • Reading and Writing

    You learn to write by reading and writing, writing and reading. As a craft it’s acquired through the apprentice system, but you choose your own teachers. Sometimes they’re alive, sometimes dead.

  • Letting Go

    There are only two lasting bequests we can give our children. One is roots; the other, wings.

  • Self- forgiveness

    Forgive yourself for the decisions you have made, the ones you still call mistakes when you truck them in at night. Sarah Kay I’ve been thinking about forgiveness.

  • Aging

    Anyone who stops learning is old, whether at twenty or eighty. Anyone who keeps learning stays young. Henry Ford I am all for staying young for as long as possible. I believe, in many ways, it’s a state of mind. You’ve probably heard the old cliche, “You’re as old as you feel.” I would say, […]
