It being Thanksgiving and all, I figured I would try one of those ‘These are the things I am thankful for’ posts. I settled into my thinking pose (which these days is usually going back to sleep), and started making a mental list. Sometime later (I lose all sense of time when I am ‘thinking’) […]
My room is hot and muggy. The central air just barely reaches it. So I have a few fans to boost the air movement. I am sitting here, with a random selection of music (Pandora) playing . Saying hello to a random selection of friends from all over. And trying to write a blog post. […]
I have been wandering in shadows lately. Not the shadows of a summer’s evening sky, where there is still the subtle glow of the retiring day. Those are pleasant shadows, shadows that cool and cause peaceful reflections. I have been stuck in the endless dark shadow of the subconscious mind. The irony is that there is no rule that […]
The other day, I did something I have not done in a very long time, yet something that should be a staple of my soul’s diet. I communed with nature for a bit. As many of my recent posts have indicated, I am struggling with a lot of things at the moment … all which […]

Picking just one Presents me with Peculiar Problems, so I have Proceeded to Post about a few of the Possibilities. PHOTOGRAPHY: This seems a Pleasant time to Plug my Photo blog, […]
One of the dangers of blogging (to me myself anyway) … especially if one’s blogs are descriptions of personal journeys, is that the author risks stepping into self-absorption. While part of the reason for these blogs IS an exploration of self, they are also supposed to be a testament to life in all its glory […]
Spring is in the air, which invariable causes two opposing reactions in Dichotomous Mister Steve. On the one hand, my lust for life is ignited, and I feel the thrill of possibility in every breath I take. Yet at the same time, this often seems to heighten the shadows I live in, and I also get a […]
Perspective seems to be on my mind for a change. Perspective, as anyone who has braved this collection of random words that might be perceived as a “blog” might have noticed, is a common theme in my sharings. One of the skills I value most is my ability to shift perspective with little effort. This ability is actually the core […]
