The most shocking news of my newspaper this morning to me was the headline “SETI is shutting down its alien hunt.”  An article by L. Krieger.  SETI stands for Search for Extra Terrestrial Intelligence.  Now that all of that has been established, I am still recovering from such sobering piece of news. What am IContinue reading “Even E.T. will have to change phone plans…”

One of my most prized possessions are my magazines.  Love my magazines.  Maybe it is because they take me to places I may never be able to visit, go into homes that portray places I would have liked to live in, be an inhabitant of beautiful and dreamy gardens, or just plain absorb what people IContinue reading “Letting go…letting go…and more letting go…”

I became a mommy the first day I found out I was pregnant.  Did you notice I said “I”, not “we” as in these days.  The good old days making room for the better newer days.  Officially I was blessed with a vision of my Milagros on November 12, 1979 at 11:58 am.  After a lotContinue reading “Mother’s Day…Have a happy and peaceful day…”

Today it is a beautiful day!!  Sunny, temperature in the mid 50’s right now, sky light blue and lots of clouds for my ever-growing collection.  The perfect day to open the windows and let the old polluted air out and let the new not so polluted yet air in.  Curtains are dancing to the wind,Continue reading “Letting old polluted air out…to let fresh polluted air in…”

 Very often in conversations I have with friends and family, the subject of happiness always comes up.  There are countless books on happiness, there’s a movie with the title of today’s posting, there is a class at Stanford University on this subject also given to students enrolled in business classes, so I have to deductContinue reading “and the pursuit of happiness…”

Now that there is no sugar to be found, all the maple syrup bottles from Vermont have been exhausted, and the honey is lacking everywhere, from all the newscasters being intoxicated by these ingredients, I am going to say my piece. I didn’t get the point that the groom was not going to get aContinue reading “The “no ring” thing this past Friday…Royal wedding…”

   All of us are always playing a role, even if we realize it or not.  Most of the time, we want to believe that our role is for goodness sake, and we want to be thought of as being a good person. Babies, brothers, sisters, mothers, daughters, husbands, fathers, sons, and so on.  TheContinue reading “The roles we play…The game of life…”

I enjoy visiting museums because I learn about the thinking of different kinds of people, their different periods and how they express their emotions, or the absence of any emotions.  My personal definition of art is:  the tangible expression of anyone’s emotion or imagination at any given time.  Artists mature, change their style and evolve, as they get differentContinue reading “Field Trip to the North Carolina Museum of Art…”

There’s a saying that goes something like this “do not judge a person until you have had a chance to walk in their shoes.” Since yesterday afternoon,  I have been trying to imagine how would I feel if I were to be in the same situation that some of the people who were affected byContinue reading “In their shoes…”

In some of the states of the Southern United States of America, tornado outbreaks have caused the death of at least 290 human beings as of this writing. My thoughts and prayers for strength, comfort and peace go out to the family and friends of these people. Sometimes silence is the best way to express or communicate anContinue reading “Tornado Outbreaks across the Southern United States…”
