Hallelujah
Until May 29th, I thought I had it all handled. I prided myself on being able to handle stress. I achieved my successes on my own. I didn’t marry money or inherit it, I made it. I maintained my integrity through a 35-year career. I made choices that were contrary to becoming successful in […]

What a Spring!!!!!
When something goes deeply wrong, the realization it forces is inevitably learned at the grave of loss. John O’Donohue What a spring. On my journey to save my tooth (which I did), I ended up with community acquired pneumonia and Atrial Fibrillation. This is my take on it, not the medical communities: it was a […]
Quan Yin – Mercy, Forgiveness, Compassion, Love
I lie in bed in the mornings, awakened by the early spring light, thinking about faith and grace – not unusual I suppose for my age. I have had the good fortune to bear witness to friends and acquaintances lives over a forty-year period. It’s most striking with people I haven’t seen for a while […]

MASTER ZHANG
I was sick. I had a light case of pneumonia which is an oxymoron as I felt like hell had taken over my body; yet, I had waited almost five years to see Master Zhang and I wasn’t going to let hell hold me back. Getting to LA was another hell. The drive to Sacramento […]

Tree of Life
In January or February, I am changing the focus of my blog. My remaining clients have asked me to stay as long as I can. I feel a responsibility to one particular client as she is becoming a lone voice in the political wilderness for fact-based reporting and truth rather than blithering punditry and second-guessing. […]
Can Women Save the World?
“Impossible is just a big word thrown around by small men who find it easier to live in the world they’ve been given than to explore the power they have to change it. Impossible is not a fact. It’s an opinion. Impossible is not a declaration. It’s a dare. Impossible is potential. Impossible is […]
7 0
Shocking, unbelievable – tick, tock, tick, tock. Today it happened. It crept into my bones and joints a while ago creating extra attention to fingers and knees in the mornings but I denied the implications. Everyone who isn’t 70 says “oh, it’s just a number. You look great.” Maybe so – but I really don’t […]
