The Color of Stillness
I love the sunsets that have me darting my eyes in every direction so I can take it all in… but tonight I was anchored in one spot, looking in one direction, mesmerized. I saw and felt the color of stillness. The unassuming gradation soothed and made my eyes and ears take a backseat. My…
Babies Know More Than They Can Remember
We’re in KC spending time with our daughter and her family and we welcome a new little grand love into the world. As I hold this new little angel, I dream about the possibilities of her life. As I watch our little “almost 2” year old grandson play, I realize he has no memories of…

Entangled Senses
Have you ever felt the coming scent of rain? Occasionally, there is a split-second that senses almost overlap. Today this happened when I saw the sky. maybe it’s what we call a premonition? The scent of rain was a vision in my mind before it was actually there. Then the moment came when the rain was actually…
Mind Travels
Sometimes the mind is a funny thing. On some days my mind correlates more with the map than anything else. The sphere of the globe becomes my mind’s canvas. I skip over the blue rather quickly and end up on the brownish places and sit a while. The last few days I’ve been near the…
