Day 101: Balance
I’m not sure I would go as far as saying that I’m in the bardo right now, but as the days go on, I am certainly feeling more and more like I am between two worlds. Today, we visited the … Continue reading
Day 99: Unscript
OK, I know–it’s not really a verb, but I’m using it as a verb. We are supposed to leave town today at about 3 pm. Yes, I know: it is now 3:48 pm as I’m writing this sentence…. Here’s how … Continue reading
Day 92: Connect
Today has felt pretty ungrounded. It’s probably not a coincidence that today is also a day in which I chose to steal a little extra sleep in the morning instead of making time for some quiet sitting. And no time … Continue reading

Day 74: Recommit
I’m not sure exactly when things started to slip–maybe with daylight savings time, but probably even a bit before that. This past week, though, has definitely been a struggle to keep to a discipline of simplicity and a commitment to … Continue reading
Day 66: Witness
Since when did my parking lot become such a beautiful place ? Maybe it was the contrast of having just gone through two days straight of gray skies and cold rain, but on the walk back to my car this … Continue reading
Day 63: Walk
My oldest had to stay late after school today for an audition, which meant instead of him going home with his carpool ride, I had to pick him up on my way back from work. Not a big inconvenience, by … Continue reading
