Belle

A tribute to my dog. — My family’s sweet companion of 14 years has passed. She enriched our lives immeasurably. I cannot imagine what life, particularly its challenges, would have been like without her. She gave us unconditional love, devoted attention, sparks of joy and amusement. We adopted her from a shelter at four months old…

Choices — We All Have Them. Even the Small One’s Matter.

What do our responses say about us? — Yesterday, a Friday, I went to a very popular local market for some weekend groceries. It’s old school and fabulous in its range of goods and quality products.

What can we learn today? — Recently I watched the PBS documentary on Earnest Hemingway. As I watched, I was enthralled by the complexity of his existence and impressed by his art of writing. I found myself pondering, how he would write today? Would he be as successful, as prolific, as unique? I had the impression…

Man is a Wolf to Man

And what to do about it — I find myself often reflecting on this axiom. Everywhere I look I see it (… does that make me a pessimist? A realist?). The origin of Man is a Wolf to Man is debatable. “It appeared in a popular Roman proverb by Plautus (dead 184 B. C.), in his Asinaria…

Gender Identity

My reveal. — I’m conservative. I’m practical. I’m a realist. I tend to see things in black and white. As I’ve grown older, I’ve become more accepting and open-minded. Still, the concept of gender identity remains one I see intellectually as simple. We are born genetically and physically the way we are. At…

I went to a Vandoliers concert last Sunday night.

I went to a Vandoliers concert last Sunday night. I first saw them in Nashville during a weekend retreat with my wife. We were shocked by their performance, in a good way. You must see them live. Their albums are great too. Where they really shine is live. It's an…
