An update and a few words

Tuesday, July 14th, 2009

For those of you following my son's story on CaringBridge, you'll know that is where I've done most of my writing the past, nearly three months now. His accident and his slow recovery, now beginning a long and painful rehabilitation process, has consumed my time and attention pretty much ...

Dark night turned into a bright new day

Sunday, May 24th, 2009

I've not been here for a bit and while doing some housecleaning thought to check back in here and noticed my last post. I thought I'd best update things! Evan spent a month in the Critical Care Unit of the ICU but last Thursday was moved to the "normal" ICU. ...

What dark night is this?

Friday, May 1st, 2009

So, my third post of the year. Why? Well, the year has been taken with concern for and dealing with my only remaining child. He has been dark and depressed for most of the past three years as he separated from his wife, I will not go ...

The Beautiful You

Tuesday, March 17th, 2009

From Steve Goodier's wonderful newsletter: We place great emphasis on a narrow idea of physical beauty.

Tuesday, February 17th, 2009

Breaking the Silence

Wednesday, January 21st, 2009

Which will be welcome news to some. I think. I'm still not sure how much I will be writing, but I will again be writing. While on my hiatus from this blog, I've been fully engaged in life, struggles, issues, day to day things that have, and ...

A goodbye

Tuesday, December 9th, 2008

I am shutting down writing for a while. This blog was never the main point of my buying this website name in the first place. My main site One People - One World was, and is, the reason. I've been told this should be about the ...

Boogie

Friday, December 5th, 2008

My youngest son's nickname among his friends was Boogie, so this made me mist up a little, but it is a wonderful site, be sure to scroll down, there are wonderfully wise words that fit life perfectly and a nice little tune too. :^) Boogie Merry X's to you my son. ...

I think I have it.

Saturday, November 29th, 2008

I finally have it, my purpose, why I came here, gawd, is this a relief! I am here to teach the world how not to be. Not of the scale of a Hitler, but of a more personal nature. Hitler taught us how not to be on a global ...

We need each other

Saturday, November 29th, 2008

Okay, this starts with a Steve Goodier piece. Please read it. Then read me, sorry I took most all of that out, too dark. So it turns out I don't have a lot to say about it. Though I don't understand why, well, I do, but ...
