the eternal snow-flower storm
Today it snowed flowers on me, and I remembered all the times it snowed snow on me when I was growing up in northern Ohio, where for seven months a year the sun would disappear behind a smear of gray as far as one could breathe, which was not very far. When it snowed flowers … Continue reading the eternal snow-flower storm
Wittgenstein said, “Look….”
“….don’t think.” I have been a vegan/vegetarian off and on for around the last 20 years, and was still eating the occasional fish up until around 7 years ago when I made the final commitment to eliminate all animal products from my diet and life, including a few very beautiful leather goods.

I don’t particularly like the word tool, but it is a good metaphor to explain what I want to say; the brain is an organ or body part, like any other. Just like a hand, a foot, the liver or the heart, we can use it to it’s full potential and live happy and healthy. … Continue reading The Mind is Your Best Tool – Use It, Don’t let It Use You!
Fill Your ‘Magic’ Numbers with Meaning
When we get hooked on reaching that magic number, we forget why we do it. Here is when we always lose that battle, over and over again, often with consequences of disappointment and unhappiness. The measurements and judgments of what is the 'right' number is most likely inherited, not coming from us. We loose the incentive, … Continue reading Fill Your ‘Magic’ Numbers with Meaning
Immigrant or Not is Just a Question of Time
What makes us think we have more right than others to be in a certain place on this earth. We were all 'immigrants' at one point, specially when we see it from a non human view.
