Dancers know that you are not getting anything one or going anywhere if you aren’t paying attention to your feet. For most people, circus acts and Cirqe not withstanding, our feet are the way we get around in the world. They support us, they motivate us, and they allow us to wear beautiful shoes. 🙂…
Sleep is a magic thing that I don’t think we have enough gratitude for. Our bodies use the time we are sleeping to do major processing. We replenish our tissues, soothe our nervous system, manufacture new fluids and chemicals in order to recharge our organs, focus on healing areas that have become damaged such as…
It’s difficult to wait for what you want. We’re taught that with enough money you can get anything you want right now. No why pay attention to anything for any length of time? And more is better, right? Well all of that applies to commodities or things, but the world is not just commodities and…
It’s always surprising to me that with all the physical limitations there are are in the world, geography, time, resources, that what hampers us most often is the limits we have in our own minds.

Most stores have moved most thanksgiving items except for food prep, out of the stores. I mean,who needs that when Christmas is the money-maker. And that’s what…
I have a friend with an ever surprising way of looking at the world. She’s a visual thinker and she sees everything in 3-d in a way most people don’t. She doesn’t live in the past or really the future, she is all about the ‘now’ and how things work, how they interact, and how…
You know, it’s been a long time since I had a truly late night. Mostly that happens when I have to travel. Have to be there at a certain time, need to get back so I arrive late at night and slog home, happy to flop into bed exhausted. Then the next day is a…
The grass is always greener on the other side of the fence.
