I have always envied the small talker. The person who could create conversation for no other reason than to converse. Jean Huston once signed a book for me and it read "To a woman who dives in the deep," she knew me from one glance...

There have been many times in my life when I have paused to give thanks for my meditation practice. Today, at the dentist was one of them. Let me back up. I learned to meditate out of my deep, deep hunger to connect with my inner spirit, to know God within me...

I love to walk. Every day I take a four to five mile walk and magic happens. The walk is never the same, although the path remains so. Different cars drive by me, trees are in different stages of development, birds are chirping or quiet, I am surrounded by a whole variety of life...

Beginnings, middles and ends tend to be important to me. If my year has been more bad than good, I am grateful it is over. "Phew, thank God, I can start again." If more joy than pain, I celebrate this. "Yippee, winner." (is that word Trademarked now?) Always a triumph in the flipping of the calendar from one year to the next...
