Why? Because there isn’t a moment to waste! I wish to learn from everyContinue reading “Applying The Work of Byron Katie to the COVID-19 Contagion”
When my kids were quite young (6 and 2) their father and I decided to take them for a short camping trip.

A few years ago, I had a dream that I was standing in a hallway. To the left and to the right there were a number of doors, and at the end of the hallway, one single door.

We are in the midst of chaotic times, no doubt. It is truly a call for us all – to wake up to the fact that we live in a global community. Arguments to the contrary can no longer be entertained.

“I am strong and I will fight this.” These are warrior’s words. I am totally inspired by athletes who work hard to become the best they can be. A person can have talent and physical ability, but it takes a special kind of warrior to rise to the top of your game on a worldContinue reading “Petra, Tennis Warrior”
A terrestrial mollusk that secretes a film of mucus for protection that is as big as a human…what a revolting idea! Nobody wants to be that… But…how often do we feel sluggish?
