"What a wonderful life I've had! I only wish I'd realized it sooner."

 I just read that quote this morning in Tools, and it really expresses what I've been coming to realize after all the hell I've put myself thru. The other quote for the day was supposedly by a man on his deathbed who said, "I've had a lot of problems in my life, and most of them neve»

Back from Paris, Returning to My Life

 My vacations are never intended to be restful. I seem to cram them so full of intentionally diverse, jolting sensory experience that it takes my brain the rest of the year to process all the sensory overload. I think I use them as inspiration for change and growth. For months afterward, my mind is s»

living dreams in Paris

 I just got a msg from someone in Tools, so I thought I'd post a blog entry.  I'm in Paris!! I took this picture... yesterday? no, I think the day before, from about 2/3 the way up to the top of the Notre Dame. I came here to hear my daughter perform in a jazz festival, and be able »

Yey!!

 wow, it seems everything has worked out, and it's amazing me.  I'm leaving for Paris Sunday morning... and - all the things I was worried about... yesterday? I was able to take action on and resolve. I know I should believe it, but somehow it seems unreal. 1. The tough negotia»

Red Lights... wow

 I can't believe the coincidence of today's theme. It's Day 68. I spent awhile yesterday trying to express what I'm feeling this week, and couldn't really encapsulate it, and then this morning's theme, Red Lights, summarized it. I have put my best effort in to stay focuse»

Weird week

 I'm really happy the week is almost over. It was stressful from trying to finish up projects before vacation, dealing with a client who reminds me of my mother, disregards my communication to him, then complains about items I'd specifically asked him about, insinuating I should be reading hi»

Thinking about death

 I liked today's theme, Death. It's day 62. I agree that we can gain more by simply facing our own mortality than anything else in life.I was raised in the 50s without any formal religion. Every kid I grew up with had a religious doctine to identify with, and formal explanations about life an»

A bitter sweet evening

 Two more days of hiking at 7. I'm starting to feel not only the physical benefits, but as building a relationship with nature that I re-establish every morning, as a stabilizing habit, as a time to sort out thoughts, as an opportunity to do a kind of walking meditation... a time to notice where »

Steady climb

 I can't believe how good life is beginning to feel. I'm feeling relaxed. Appreciative in the moment. The right things falling into place and the wrong things remaining just what they are, and then I drop them. At least this week. Today. I set the alarm for 5am (shifting closer to Paris »

HIking notes - day 2

 I was up again at 5 this morning, did Tools, had my morning espresso and breakfast, and I could 'hear' my mind trying to talk me out of the hike. That's normal stuff. "oh, you did a great thing yesterday... take a break today..."  All BS.  I thought about the 91 year »
