Thank Goodness for Daughter Number Two, a.k.a., “Captain Napkin”…! Last night she disappeared into a bedroom and emerged a few minutes later saying, “I was helping Mom fold the napkins. I just love doing that.” I think she also said it helps her relax(!). And so I got to thinking, “Do what you can; do …

In The End…
In the end it’s all about love. That’s what matters most; and that’s really all that matters. Love. Do you have it? Do you share it? If not, start right now. Give love, and you will receive it. And then? Give some more. In the end, and beginning, and everywhere in between. LOVE.

Lyrics Post: “This Land Is Your Land”
“From my youth to now, many decades later, this song speaks. And through its many renditions, this song speaks to us. To those who will listen. For those who yearn, and believe. Thank You, Woody. “This land is your land, this land is my land From California to the New York island From the redwood …
Let The Noise Go

From the Ashes

A Dad’s Life, Friday Night
Long week in the rear-view, some challenges, some big news, some fun, all in the wake. This morning’s random breakfast, left-over kid’s dinner plus a cheese stick. A Dad’s Breakfast. Fortified for the day. Twelve hours later, whirlwind workday done, lots of learning — always good — and glad the day, the week is done. …
The Face of a Good Attitude
This is the face of a good attitude. School day. Not thrilled. But she turned it around. A little sassy, but in a good and playful way. Inspired by what’s possible. And thankful.
Lyrics Post: “Lonely Is The Night” Billy Squier
A LONG time ago I heard this song for the first time. The riff, the lyrics, they stay with me still. They haunt me, fortify me, and everything in between. Dig it. “Lonely is the night when you find yourself alone Your demons come to light and your mind is not your own Lonely is …

When In Doubt? Shakespeare!
As a vegan to drift off this came to mind; from The Muse himself; some six hundred years ago written, two score years I heard it for the first time. “Tomorrow, and tomorrow, and tomorrow,Creeps in this petty pace from day to day,To the last syllable of recorded time;And all our yesterdays have lighted foolsThe …
