Whirly Gigs
Pivot points and reference points subtlety disguised as harmless bric-a-brac escape my comprehension until I either stumble or land on one or the other and ponder the affect. Realization that much of my life’s contentment hinges like a...

Malaria
Flailing, reaching, screaming; hiding, avoiding, misdirecting, theses are subsets in a list of extremes whose commonality is lacking, lacking humility. I fall to pieces just thinking of standing exposed, imperfect and unprotected. I’m not...

I have my optimism glasses on.
Some people call them sunglasses. That's a good name for them if there's a sign.
But there is not sign. No sign of it. Graylight has overtaken night's pitch so we believe the sun is up there behind the clouds.
Good word, believe, a word of faith and...

Quite a lot, I think. While Shakespeare was correct when he said that a rose would smell as sweet by any other name, the word, itself, evokes impressions of beauty, delicacy and fragrant odor. Try saying the word rose to someone and they are likely to smile and even inhale as...

I use a wireless, battery operated digital mouse. It's on the way out and will someday seem like a wringer washer or princess telephone. People will gaze on it with bemused...

As I walked this morning, I watched people driving by and thought, "I miss that."
I miss getting up, getting dressed, jumping into my car and making the commute to an office.
It could be a case of looking at the past through rose colored glasses or it might be that absence makes the...

This morning felt like a good day to pick a Tarot card, to pick a card to provide some insight or inspiration in general, not necessarily for myself alone, but possibly for other wandering souls.
The card that showed up was Death - XIII Trumps
The essence of this card seems to be captured in the...

They call it springing ahead but we're not spring ahead into anything. How we mark our hours will change. My 6:30 graylight will become 7:30 graylight. 6:30 will be relegated to cold darkness for a time. I'll need to adjust my sense of time and light to estimate the new...
