At some point you may find that though you still … Read More
My paperback is now an audiobook!
Five years after appearing, Born Whole is a brand-new audiobook! I published it in paperback on Amazon in 2019, and just a few days ago it became available as an audiobook on iTunes and Audible as well as Amazon. It’s free! — for now at least, and with strings. The price is set by the company, not by me, and … Read More
Don’t be a Lifebot.
This is your cue to sit up, wondering what a “lifebot” is. Hint: think “life robot”. A lifebot is a well-intentioned person (like pretty much all of us) who wants to improve a significant aspect of life; a person who has the self-awareness to recognize that something is missing, or out of whack, or plain unhealthy; and whose solution is … Read More
Tweaking Healing : reluctance to heal vs. effortless joy
Two lines stay with me from the movie “Crash.” You probably didn’t see it. Overall, it was a downer, with painful scenes and a non-Hollywood ending, offering worthy observations of the malaise of modern life. The lines I remember were “The only way we meet people these days is to crash into them” (the character was reflecting on her recent … Read More
Full Circle: Brightness to the Dark Night and back – a spiritual journey
I came to my path not through academic study, but through my own reading, listening and above all, personal experience. I am deeply grateful for the contributions of others, those on whose shoulders I stand, that enable me to have an appreciation for the importance, validity, and context of what I’ve seen. If I am to make a contribution it … Read More

Counting Time
My years are not marked by seasons’ graceful turn from white to green and white again, nor is my month reckoned by the changing moon, she who makes the tides. I do not measure days as light to dark to light, sun’s faithfulness across the depth of sky; and least of all, the minutes and the hours: they do not move … Read More
