I Feel Freedom

I am grateful for this beautiful day of lessons learned about loving… I am grateful for the consistent reminder that everyone I meet is far more then what meets my eye. I am grateful for the Racial Justice Task Force Just Dinner event that took place tonight. I am grateful for everyone… yep, even that…

Even a blind squirrel….

Today is a Tuesday, but it feels like a Monday. This April Fool’s day has been no joke; meaning that I am not laughing. I will probably pour myself a glass of bourbon a little later on. All day long has been one issue after another and one long lingering issue. That being said, even…

Spring has Sprung….?

Well we have made it past Winter and into Spring, or have we? There is still moisture, rain and it is still cold in the morning and evening. We are receiving some sun during the afternoon and I am grateful for that. This past weekend a bunch of us from a yachting community in Long…

Time & Space

I am grateful for a nice message I received today—a friendly note. I am grateful for things working out… In their own time.

Maps

There are many different types of maps; and with the launching of satelites and GPS becoming common-place, you are able to get a map on your cell phone. Maps help direct you when you don’t know where you are going. There are books, podcasts and seminars that act like a map, helping us to direct…

Monday Begins the Weak

I am grateful for the newness of the day. I am grateful for the easing into the night. I am grateful for eternal chances until I am complete. Happy St. Patty’s Day… and Happy Birthday to you!

Serenity

I am so very grateful that there is a chapel on the campus, where I work. It allows me time to go sit in peace and have a conversation with god. This is needed sometimes; it helps me with my growth, patience and lowering the blood pressure.

The Artist

This past weekend was spent in one of the art galleries of our lord. It is located in Northern Arizona and called Sedona. I also spent a day on Navajo land exploring a couple of slot canyons. The beauty was incredible. I enjoyed hanging with friends and sending photos to family. It was a wonderful,…

Thank Dog

I am grateful that IWD was only 23 hours.

A Comforting Time

I am grateful for the memories I have… it is interesting how memories smooth the rough edges of the past. We slip into them like a big comfy king-size bed. I have memories of great rock n’ roll albums, warm open friendships, beer and weed. Maybe something a bit more for those weekend nights. The…

My Wheelhouse

Even though I have used the title of, My Wheelhouse, believe it or not, this post is not about boating. This past Sunday I was asked to volunteer at a jazz concert that would benefit the victims of the fires in Los Angeles county. The concert was held at South Coast Winery in Temecula California….

It is called Futbol

What a week for observing futbol/soccer! Yesterday, the 26th, I attended the She Believes Cup tournament in San Diego. It was the final leg of the three stop competition; the first two being in Houston Texas and Glendale Arizona. I was sitting right at Mid-field able to observe the whole field. I watched two games,…
