  • Learning to Lean

    Namaste Jagged Little Pill album on blast. Alanis is screaming at me through Forgiven in this moment. I’m nose deep in my blog archives and some of these experiences require spirits in a shot glass, but I’m settling for alternative rock. Come on down memory lane with me, again, if you remember reading this one.…

  • Self-Care for Therapists

    Namaste Recently in class a student asked how as therapists we can best take care of ourselves in order to have a long career. Nutrition, from our own view, was one of the points I touched on. Our ancestors observed the diets of animals such as the gorillas and chimps, but they also used instinct…

  • Hormones

    Namaste Still hanging out with Janus here. Might have gone too far back. I was remembering the days chatting on ICQ. That makes me technologically old. Anyway, I had a photo posted there that attracted chatters. One day a guy who said he was from India complimented me on my appearance and invited me to…

  • Glitches

    Namaste Getting back to that prayer meeting…  A member was asked to give a brief exhortation that night.   Brief was disregarded.  I am always fascinated at how in the name of being enthused by the Holy Ghost, one does as one pleases at the expenses of others, some of whom obviously had time constraints and…

  • The Big Picture

    Namaste I grew up hearing that every action has an equal and opposite reaction.  I relegated that to some vague concept of Chemistry because it was too scary to apply it to everyday life.  It works perfectly in that giving would automatically activate receiving, but when I think of doing good and getting bad as…

  • Androgynous

    Namaste It is politically incorrect to have a dog and bark, so given that I have helpers, I don’t iron my clothes, that role is delegated to my children. I was preparing for work recently and opened the wardrobe to take out a top to wear. There are two sets hanging there: the ones to…

  • Imagine

    Namaste How did the Christmas season treat you? Mine was all over the place. So I’m sitting here reflecting while listening to Sandi Patti: In The Name Of The Lord. On repeat of course. It’s one of those songs you never get enough of. I remember a time in Church history when you proved your…

  • Lessons in Twine

    Namaste We arrive here with a ball of twine, and we skip and twist and wind and it gets all knotted up and we still don’t realize that the thing we are playing with is the number of our days. It is time. The time allotted to us on the face of this Earth. Thankfully,…

  • Outcall Massage

    Namaste I was toying with the idea of doing a script for the theatre after my recent sit-in to the reading of Tony’s play and wonder which of my experiences I should ‘prolong’ to facilitate this.  Then I to reviewed some of my writings and found this one (the first of two articles on the…

  • Tobago Lime

    Namaste First things first.  Clarification.  I was asked if my last blog was directly referring to a certain person.  No.  As I would have said some time before, whatever I write is my internal dialogue; reflections and projections that we are processing; that we being us – me, myself, and I.  It is never directed…
