As the days drift by and I pause for a moment with the stillness of a dragonfly amidst the blurring landscape of life, I appreciate that in the journey of letting go I’m surrounded by calm waters.

The Week In Seven Photos

While wandering through my days this week, now permanently called “Someday, Noneday, Whoseday?, Whensday?, Blursday, Whyday?, Doesn’tmatterday” after reading an article in The New Yorker on the Lexicon For A Pandemic, I was reminded of my journey toward a simple lifestyle that began in the ’90s.

I loved watching the mother and daughter roles played out wonderfully by Catherine Deneuve and Juliette Binoche in The…

As I wander through the slow flying days thinking they’ve added an extra Thursday to the week, somehow I’m a little surprised that the July 4th holiday has arrived. My timing is definitely off since I actually tried to go out a few weeks ago to buy a few summer outdoor items to only discover that…

I saw an article the other day on how the quarantine has strengthened the marriage of Kevin Costner and while watching the new season of Yellowstone, there may have been a brief thought about being trapped in a house with Kevin Costner for five months, but then that was quickly replaced by the question of…
