Start each month with Rabbit May 01, 2021

"Rabbit" is the word to say on the 1st of each month. I began playing this game with a college roommate -- whoever says "Rabbit" 1st wins! The "Rabbit' game became one of the rhythms of my life, making me mindful of the passage of time and the transition from one month to the next. Appreciating...

Travel Delays: Stuck at the Airport and How to Cope Apr 29, 2021

A long day to nowhere!  Sunday morning after visiting family for a week, I arrived at a small airport in Florida, ready to return home. But, that didn't happen. At least, not that day.

Rabbit arrives the 1st of each month Apr 01, 2021

This playful game is both a fun way to connect and an easy way to orientate to the calendar. I shared this game with my husband and children, and...

(Originally posted 12 Sep 2011 as "New Writing".)

In the fall of 2011, I was in a writing group. This piece is from a 10-minute writing exercise.

Writers Group Prompt: Describe your day from the viewpoint of a bird.

I like that you notice me when I sing the sun awake. I hear your footsteps as you...

No place for hooks to land Mar 19, 2021

When I come into this place of self-acceptance, then people's hooks of criticism, their projections, they can't land in me anymore. Because what I have come to realize is that hooks and triggers come from our unconscious place where we are not yet fully in love with ourselves. So as we can open...

Recently I had a dream that has been deeply nurturing. The wisdom within the dream has prompted me to write. Let me know if any of the haikus land on you in a way that has meaning for you.

Reflecting on 2009 Ice Storm Feb 26, 2021

(Originally posted 15 February 2009.)

Take Chances, Make Mistakes, Get Messy Feb 19, 2021

(Originally posted 24 March 2015.)

When I was a new parent, I gave myself permission to see the world in a fresh way. When our 3-year-old spilled the box of 100 Band-Aids, I took ridiculous delight in counting the scattered Band-Aids and sorting them into piles by shape and size.

Some of us are...

Spread the Love Feb 12, 2021

I believe there is a wellspring of love available for us all. Love is not finite, though somehow it can feel scarce when it comes to loving ourselves. How much does the critic in our head speak up louder and faster than the voice of self-acceptance and self-love.…
