  Have you ever, in your wildest dreams, considered that, like Noah, God is asking you to build an Ark? Maybe not a literal ark, but still it feels like an ark. Surely not!? And the reason you are exempt is…??? Maybe you need to look at what you are being asked to be, to do. […]

  Except for expletives, I don’t think I’ve ever met a word I didn’t like. I love words! To say that I’m a word person is an understatement. Obviously one of the attributes I enjoy most  about words is that they are vehicles of expression as well as communication. In case you might take issue with

  or… balancing act, or… juggling. That’s what we all face – attempting to balance responsibilities and goals and plans and expectations and family and hopes and wants and… After being involved with this for what seems a very, very long time there’s a kind of ‘but what about ME’ that emerges. Not surprising and understandable. However,

  How do you define ‘quality of life’? Without a definition, description how will you know you are or are not experiencing it?  It really isn’t important if your definition is (or not) similar to anyone else – we all have our own definitions.

Do you remember the last time you were involved with a conversation that was truly ‘involving’? That both you and the other person(s) were sharing and discussing a subject that brought further clarity or a new approach in thinking? How exhilarating, how energizing! How infrequent. Perhaps I’m just in my ‘anti small talk’ mood but

Typically you don’t recognize your really, really stupid stage until after you’ve come through it… often many years later. (It isn’t particularly a happy reminiscence.) However, I believe we all go through a really stupid stage or maybe it’s that I don’t want to believe I’m the only one. The stupid stage is identified by incredible self indulgence
