The Only Friend You Will Ever Need
“I’m the only friend you will ever need,” the clown doll proclaimed, out of nowhere, after suddenly sliding down the tiled backsplash of the kitchen counter I sat him on. For Halloween my daughter–sweet child of my own twisted heart—had sent me a creepy little clown doll I call Chuckles, programmed to deliver pithy little […]

This is going to end badly
I sprinted into my inner professor’s office as if in hot pursuit, still nimble beyond my advancing years, and slid into the seat left empty far too long in front of his desk.

Be gentle with yourself

Hi everybody and a happy 2019 to all! My calendar and perennial To-Do list is already filled with so many tasks but fortunately our purpose remains the same: to make practicing true forgiveness the most important thing in our so-called lives!

Without Foundation Nothing Is Secure
I dashed from my bedroom, coatless in the chilly hour before dawn, barged into his office and slid—breathless and freezing–into the familiar chair opposite his desk. “Gluten-free BOBO bar?” I asked, starving, as usual; having grabbed an extra one for him on the way out.” He shook his head. “You look like you’ve seen a […]
October Is the Cruelest Month—No Wait!
(Having a right-minded moment and thought I should post quickly between breaking news! :)) “How did June become October?” I asked, as he materialized through an early-morning haze on the campus path, man scarf I’d given him knotted at his throat, robes flowing, surrounded by autumnal hues blurry as a Renoir. I handed my imaginary […]
