Articles I share to help build the life I love to live.
To play any musical instrument requires ability, skill and knowledge. It is no coincidence (ok maybe it is) that together they form the word ask. Learning is the first letter in our acronym of LOVE. There are, of course, exceptions but in order for us to learn the overwhelming majority of us must ask others…
There is no measure for my love. It cannot be measured and probably not even described but none-the-less I wanted to try. How much I love others is a reflection of how well I understand love and how much I love myself. At the most basic level my philosophy is built on a foundation that…
What can one man accomplish in only 90 days? He can (I did) start a weblog and try to inspire others to enjoy more of life. Today is my ninetieth posting. I have written more but sometimes my husband Pedro discards them…for your sake he has been my editor. English is not his first language…
Today is the start of the 2010 Olympic Winter Games here in Vancouver and there is much to celebrate. It is wonderful that humans are able to come together to play. Sport is play and the Olympics bring all the people who like to play together and the rest of us watch them do it.…

One thing that always fascinates…
I am not sure what word you are comfortable to use representing “the divine”. The term I most often use is “the divine” or “universal mind and presence” or some other such term that de-personalizes the construct of teh judeo-christian belief of God that I was raised to know. I do not mean that I…
Life is a fantasy of which we each are our own author. Have you developed the plot you want? Have you created characters that you might need to kill off in a future chapter? Where is your story at and what needs to happen next? I have been an author but the book I wrote…
The item in the photo is actually a clock. It is the 10,000 year clock from the Long Now Foundation. The six man engineering team who created this clock were challenging us to think long-term. I am going to suggest we make another leap. I am going to suggest we would be benefit from thinking…
