    Epilogue & Epiphany: Both Sides Now

    I stare into the hurricane whose eye will not blink. Many changes are in the offing (offering) of life. Now is as good a time as any to break open the piggybank of experience & count the coins. I give gratitude for the gifts & guilts of my existence. I have lived through so many […]

    A Birthday of Blessing

    Being fully human: I am fully divine. I am based in blessing Rooted in divinity Wrought in the free will of Self Ablaze at times with the incandescence of a life well-lived My joys are a playground of opportunities The games they engender Call through my windows The call to prayer is also the call […]

    Landfall

    Hurricane Ian is coming. Arrival is Wednesday mid-day. But the acolytes gather with candles & water containers after securing their outdoor possessions & wishing they had a stormproof garage. I gave in to fear for about ten minutes, firing up search engines to track the storm, reading emergency procedures. That wore out fast! There was […]

    Ordinary Wisdom

    WHO NEEDS BEGINNINGS? I am getting into continuation more & more these days. I keep finding wisdoms which, I told a friend, bring me up so short, I leave mental skid marks. I know these are trite as cracks in sidewalks to others, but maybe you can share where I am if I share these: […]

  • The Wild Pigs of Fortune

    These words, as delicate as unicorns Seeking virgins across a flowered meadow Become Wild pigs of fortune Rooting morels of richest flavor Growing in ragged rings Trailing under trees. I have dined on hope & horror That sweet & sour of life – I choose my plate & am served, The pickiest of eaters No […]

  • Quiche & Stonehenge Lamps

    up at 3:30 – this time zone thing is interesting… I was sometimes an insomniac before the cat came into my life, but now I am accomplished in the single digit hours. I prefer these dark darlings before everyone else is up. I feel like I’ve got a secret which satisfies my inner child enormously. […]

    “When Possible, Make a U-Turn”

    I’ve read that even when we are lost, maybe turned around in direction, the place we are lost in needed our energy to pass through it. I am intrigued by this as it gives a validation to dithering. My Garmin unit has fallen heavily into like with Rt 75 here – Florida’s answer to 95 […]

    Before the Cat Died

    PREPONDERANCE Tisanes of my own making: I still say coming forward for others Is more than my own reality The vague blur of expired lenses Less keen than real perceptions The radiation of my Chernobyl life Pulsing in the machinery. My heart decides its own measure Diverging from the body’s hosting. Finding that  hidden doorway, […]

  • Being Again

    Being Again

    I have changed up my luck & my life many times, not being one to stay in place & talk while change happened all around. I’m at that lever point again where each choice takes me to a more fulfilling place. Mark, 5:36 says “Do not fear. Only believe.” Whew! Good advice there! I’ve taken […]

    Landings

    I wonder why I lived in such a hardscrabble place as T or C now. Perhaps cuz I didn’t know it was such. It filled all needs for some time. I had forgotten (or perhaps never had access to) the option to stay anywhere else without pulling down a salary when I’d rather stay retired. […]
