Hello on a September evening, Yesterday was Mexican Independence Day, and it was also my birthday.

Loving with your Heart
Hello on the first day of September, As I look out my window, there is one particular tree that has begun its yearly transformation from a rich vibrant green to the colors of the impending autumn palate – something that always astounds us as humans.

Who am I? Who are We?
Hello on a beautiful August Sunday afternoon, While we had a somewhat significant rainstorm last night, today is beautiful: partly cloudy with a nice breeze, moderate temperatures and low humidity.

Hello from yet another February morning, Whether or not it only seems I am looking back at life more frequently or it’s an actuality, I’m unsure, but turning 70 must have something to do with that particular action. And yet as I ponder my life and the events or experiences, the people and places thatContinue reading “Only Remembering or Telling What We Want”

Struggling with my Scars
Hello from the hotel, I am continually amazed by the way our lives seem to be in an ending tension of sorts, the sort of push and pull between things that seem diametrically opposed.

We are ostensibly pleased with our daily existence while worryingContinue reading “Struggling with my Scars”
