Friends,
I wrote this poem a few weeks ago and am now trying to live it. Big love.
Nameless
We are not who we say we are.
And we say it too much.
There are no words for that name.
None full enough.
Our name holds all the sounds
of silence.
We are not who we say we are
Though we insist it is so.
How dreadful the list of achievements
pasted on our body
for all to see.
Maybe we should listen for

It’s my daughter’s 7th Birthday today. She’s such a little girl now– so full of wonder and wisdom. I am grateful everyday that she is my daughter.
I wrote this poem while on retreat in Ojai and I dedicate it to her today. I think she already knows what it took me many years to discover.
The Kiss of Sky
I sit in a rusty white chair
at the center of a grassy field.
The

Meet Manny Treeson.
My heart does a little happy dance when I think of Manny. We’ve known each other a LONG time. I met him in 10th grade at auditions for The Crucible. We were both cast in the show and became fast friends. He lived just a few blocks from my house and we’d walk to and from rehearsals together. (In our senior year, I remember

I’ve been experimenting with NOW.
I’m prone to living in THEN or SOON.
I’m prone to being very much out of the moment.
So, yesterday I found myself driving down the street saying,
“Now I’m driving down the street.”
And then I took a deep breath.
And I felt better.
The rest of the day went something like this:
“Now I’m grocery shopping.”
Deep breath.
Softening.
“Now I’m checking my email.”
Deep breath.
Feeling of well being.
“Now I’m eating lunch.”
Deep breath.
This is nice.
“Now

On Fridays, I’m going to introduce you to my friends–one at a time.
I’m going to do this because I believe when we are introduced to someone with words from the heart, they become a part of our community. Our community grows. Our circle of care extends.
So, I’m going to introduce you to people I love. And it may inspire you. You may have something to offer.

My friend David Scully (http://www NULL.salutationsbyscully NULL.com/) sent me a package of these cards a couple of weeks ago. I love them. Though you can’t see the back, each card has a vibrant color on the back with a list of many of the sign’s qualities all around the edge of the card. I think they are wonderful. You can order the whole set or individually.
He has other lines of cards

~A new commitment to meet myself and you in the hammock each week~
So I wrote a blog last Monday in which I pretty much invoked a flood. I wrote that I was tired of feeling closed down and was ready for whatever it took to feel fully alive. I welcomed the change Gods into my life.
And just a day or two later, I got exactly what

Writing Friend Friday has been incredibly satisfying. I love thinking deeply about my pals and sharing a small sketch that introduces them to my community. I also love that it’s been working! People are connecting. Solutions offered. Curiosity sparked!
I thought it would be a good moment now 6 months into Friend Friday to do a little update. A few of the friends I’ve already written about are doing great things
