“Up from the ashes, grow the roses of success.”
Ok, don’t hate me. But I think this might be my song for 2009. “When it gets distressing, it’s a blessing.”
Most people are starting their New Year today. I hope it is a blessed start to an adventure filled year.
Happy Monday!

Happy New Year! I do hope that you are able to surf this adventure filled year with blessings, joy and love. Together we move toward a new horizon.
And today, we move toward our own mutterings. I still love this exercise. More than anything, I love to read what you have to say. You gift me [...]

I hope your year is filled with joy an prosperity. We have such adventure in front of us : a new president, reparations of our international relationships, and economic challenges. I remain deeply grateful for the opportunity to share this time with you.
Many blessings!

I’m not one for vacations.
Honestly, I can’t remember the last one I took.
But my kindness for this week is for myself. I’m going to take a break from the blog for a couple of days.
No drama. No problems. Just a break.
I’ve missed so much of your lives in the last year. I need to [...]

Some times, telling the truth is the kindest thing you can do. It’s hard when the truth is unpleasant. However, it’s possible that a person needs the kindness of that truth.
And some times, it’s best to keep your mouth shut. Smile, nod, and go about your business.
The ’say or not to say’ dilemma comes to [...]

“And above all things, never think that you’re not good enough yourself.
A man should never think that.
My belief is that in life people will take you at your own reckoning”

I have two Rose bushes sitting under the light on my desk. Outside the weather is frigid, but under the light? The miniature rose, called Cupcake, has new leaves and the larger mystery rose bush is showing a few new leaf buds. Rescued from the trash can at a local nursery, they continue to revive [...]

In my life time, I saw a great man destroy his career, shame himself and usher in this current time. I was at Berkeley when he was nominated to the Supreme Court. You can imagine the conversations! The dialog! The fear! As it turns out, this man did a decent job of steering the Supreme Court. [...]

“Oh my God, please don’t give me all of those cookies!”
Be honest. How many times have you thought this, but said instead:
“Gosh, thank you so very much! You are too kind.”
This year, we are accepting the cookies with abandon, then spread the cookie love.
We made truffles, peppermint bark and, of course, cookies. We are sending [...]
