Vibrancy
Allow me to introduce my mother-in-law, Margaret, the weekend after her 99th birthday. That’s right–this is the new 99! She has just walked down the steps on to the the lawn where her granddaughter will be married to the groom (on her right), in a service officiated by the woman on her left.

Slowing down long enough to see
Among the many prophesies about these challenging times we are inhabiting, the Hopi have commented on how things will continue to speed up.

Your blooming
What is spring if it isn’t about new life? And why not new life with wild abandon, with an abundance that makes you laugh out loud? This time Spring has really done it in Tucson. I couldn’t walk this path through Catalina State Park without wanting to sing, to howl, to do cartwheels! We aren’t in Kansas any more. And …
Sand Spirit Two Minds
What do you see in this image? I see a figure with two minds squeezed into one head. I guess, since the Sand Spirit I draw always reflects me, that I have two minds. Of course this is true.
