Storms

Tonight I am thinking of the many people who lost their homes (or loved ones) in the scores of tornadoes that slammed through the Midwest yesterday. It brings to mind when our friends, Roger and Sharon, lost their home along with every other family in their home town of Firth, Nebraska, May 22, […]

Just Wait

Who is it that can make muddy water clear? No one. But left to stand, it will gradually clear of itself. Lao-TzuTao Te Ching

Lessons of the Lamp

In some ways, right now I feel as though I am flipping through a tattered photo album. I am recalling precious memories and bringing to mind valuable things I knew but had forgotten. I am savoring where I am now looking back at where I had been. I am so grateful…. The writing […]

Elephant Hugs

Elephants are thought to have very developed emotional intelligence, and they have long been revered and honored in many cultures around the world. When I was in Thailand in September 2010, I visited the elephant camp, where I even saw elephants creating artwork.  “The fact is that elephant art has an immediate visual, […]

The Fabric of our Lives
