One must have chaos in oneself in order to give birth to a dancing star. ~ Friedrich Nietzsche Recently I had a very tender sharing with a dear friend. It was tender because each of us is doing the best we can to love one another and that process isn’t always neat and tidy. […] We are feeling sad with the passing of John’s eldest brother, Jerry, shortly before midnight on Friday evening, September, 24, 2021. The date was already special – grandson Brad and Christina got married exactly five years ago! This photo of the five Basham brothers was taken at the wedding.

Perhaps that is the disappearance of dogma…. I have been listening to Kelvin Chin, who was a test subject in […] The other evening we were talking about our favorite childhood book/s.
