I am sitting just staring at the computer screen and thinking that I need to change the posting, because Memorial Day is over. Just had dinner…Sautee sweet potatoes, grilled zucchini, and scrambled eggs.  Two organic eggs.  There are no words to describe how I feel right now after inhaling all that pottage.  I feel likeContinue reading “A really, really bad dinner…and thoughts of…you better read on…”

Memorial Day is a very meaningful holiday.  We get the opportunity to think about the ultimate sacrifice a human being can do, for his or her country and fellowmen. It takes special persons to sacrifice their lives for the sake of all of us, so we can have “life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.”  OurContinue reading “On Memorial Day…we say “Thank You””

Sometimes people, animals and things come into our lives for a second, a moment, a season or for a lifetime. We need to make sure we stay where we are.  That is, in the moment, because those moments, people, animals and things will go away, because it was their time to go away, and lifeContinue reading “For a moment…for a season…for a lifetime…”

Need to write something to let people know that I am still breathing after the Mothers’ Day posting. Well…these happy, content, could-care-less-about-anything-cows gave me the perfect idea. These happy inhabitants of that green pasture were grazing happily ever after about 5 miles off the outskirts of Miami.  Yes, Miami.  Via the Turnpike.  Couldn’t ignore themContinue reading “Nothing to write about…and then the cows came home…in Miami…”

We humanoids have rituals, traditions and customs.  This coming Sunday, May 13th we celebrate a very important holiday.  Mothers’ Day. What does it mean…Motherhood.  I believe you have to be one…either biologically or by any other method,  to know the pain, the agony, the glory, the ecstasy that you go through when you are a…Mother. To thoseContinue reading “Mother…Madre…Mere…and so on…Happy Mothers’ Day…”

I am reading this book about 1,001 things I can do, or anyone can do when you are not sure what is it that you want to do. One of the sections is titled “Be An Author.”  I thought about it because to write this blog is one of the things I do where IContinue reading “Be an author…to write…not to write…”

Mama Nature never ceases to amaze me…even when the perfect flower is not so perfect. Therein lies the beauty of Nature.  It never works at doing anything…it just waits patiently for things to evolve and take their course…all without moving a petal. This morning during my once-in-a-while walk, I was looking for the perfect magnolia,Continue reading “Beauty…and the Beat…”

Sometimes we think we have to take the actual road to travel to amazing places. I am on a quest to take the road less travelled…that one of an internal search to find meaning and fulfillment at this stage of my life. I think I was not created to color my hair once a month, checkContinue reading “New Possibilities…New Roads to Travel…”

Ahhhhh…new beginnings…fresh starts…new opportunities…maybe a new life. Those are the meanings of Easter for me.  This also includes the spirit of forgiveness.  You cannot love without having the spirit of forgiveness.  One cannot exist without the other. Also, I am grateful for new opportunities to be a better person, to be kind, be loving, andContinue reading “Happy New Beginnings…Happy Easter…”

This is the fish that I nurture every day in the inside pool of my apartment.  She is a very smart fish…but of course, she is a she.  She knows when to talk, when to eat and when to sleep. She even knows when to just be quiet.  Great listener too. I  feed her only vegetarian meals, because IContinue reading “On the foolishest day of the year…Meet Emelinda…”
