I have been having a struggling with words phase again. No that is not quite it. I have no problem coming up with words. Maybe even putting them together in a coherent and even somewhat skilled manner. The issue is more with the emotional content of the words. So I guess I am actually struggling with emotions again. Not […]
I have mentioned a few times that I also have a passion for photography. As a matter of fact, I began exploring that passion before I really started indulging in the writing addiction. When I first started this blog I rarely posted any photos, but it quickly became apparent that pics were needed just for the […]
Lately understanding has been eluding me. A question has been lingering: “Why?” Why does effort frequently get little reward, while whim and seeming luck reaps major benefits? Why does it often seem that good struggles when evil flourishes? Why is pain more notable than pleasure? So of course I went on a journey to find the answer. I […]
I sat on the bench, looking out over the lush little valley I was in. This man-made oasis of beauty in the middle of the Arizona desert was a both a haven and a challenge. I came here to reconnect. With my self. With nature. With the world. I was feeling on the cusp of some great revelation. Both at one with […]
Og was wondering through the trees seeking out a scrumptious yet easy to catch beastie for lunch. As he started to leap over a stream that dared to cross his path, a bright shiny object in the bottom of the stream caught is attention. Multitasking not being invented yet, Og forgot he was in the process of leaping […]
Yesterday, I was offered The Seven Links Award by one of my blogging heroines, Kathy of reinventing the event horizon.

It is a simple fact that no destination can be reached if we do not at least take one step towards it. Often that first step is the hardest. But it also the most important one. No journey can be undertaken until we actually CHOOSE to undertake it. I have been hiding from the world for a few years […]
Can you feel the pull? My sister is creating a magical being capable of revealing how our stories intertwine. The Storyteller invites all to sit around the campfire; to join her in entering the realm of possibility. Not only does this open my soul’s eyes to future possibilities, but it is bringing back past stories as well. […]
I am in one of those modes where I feel I need to write something, but have no idea what I want to write. So I am going to just start the fingers going on the keyboard and see where I end up. I did the unusual and actually started with a title. Rarely works that way […]
Seems I have a few spots on my personal glow again. Need to scrub the shine back in. So as usual I wander with words a bit till the shine is back to its eye-watering glory. Apparently the blogging world (at least the little bit of it that I visit) slows down during the summer months. Which is a good […]
