Hospice day, today.  9 0’clock meeting with the doctor and nurses to discuss our patients, what’s happening, any changes, how’s the family… and then out to cover my round as chaplain and see my patients. It’s amazing.  Talk about being having to be in the here and now.  We’ll get into this more down the road. […]

Back from the doctor.  Good news.  My friend’s cancer hasn’t progressed.  That’s great.  Especially since she has decided not to fight it, but rather to make her body as inhospitable as possible, by proper eating, supplements, and yoga so it leaves on its own.  Fascinating. Seven hours since the previous paragraph.  Been writing all day. […]

So yesterday I figured out how not to miss a post because of the hour difference between my time and the browser’s time.  As soon as I write these first several sentences, instead of just leaving them in a working form, I’ll post them.  It won’t be my complete post, I can and will edit and […]

Bright and sunny outside today.  Big change from the drab, rainy days we’ve been having recently. Makes me want to breathe deeply and go do something out in the open air.  However, I had so many insights on where to go with my writing last night that I think I’ll just stand here in front […]

Had a fabulous insight today, while in the shower, on what to do with the qp article.  (It’s amazing where your mind can go when your outside world is running on autopilot.)  Anyway, I’m going to pivot the article on the concept of inside/outside.  I haven’t told you that one yet?  Well let me correct that […]

Going back to the exercise you did yesterday, while it took you years to get from the being in the picture to whom you are now… physically,  it took you less than an instant to return to that being… mentally.  And once you were there, if you wanted to, you could have easily traced the […]

So I’m going to assume that you’ve read yesterday’s post and done yesterday’s little game of self reflection.  If you haven’t, do so before you read this.  As with any character based game, you have to earn your right to each level.  In fact, you really should read all these posts in order to get […]

Hospice day. The day I go out and sit with dying patients and their families.  Talk about putting a different perspective on reality.  Think about what is real and important in your life for a while.  I’ll see you later. So I’m back.  I’ll bet you never even realized I was gone.  Time takes on completely […]

Busy, busy morning.  Focusing on all those things that have to be done, so why not get them done now so I can focus on what I’d really like to do late on.  Right. And now, with them out of the way… for now… we can bring you in on what’s really happening here…  On The […]

At yoga today the teacher gave us a choice to do shoulder stand with a chair or feet up the wall.  “You can go right into either pose if you know it,” she said.  “I’ll demonstrate the legs up the wall,” she added and  turned to me, “and you show the shoulder stand, okay?”  I nodded.  “And would […]
