Some Days, We Rock

Wondering…  About that part inside of ourselves that longs to rock…  Does everyone have one?  Is the difference only in degree and stylistic preference?  The extent to which we let it be seen?  Let it loose?  Does anyone not have an experience from their early years when they turned up their favorite song and just...

Some Days, It Feels Impossible

Some days, it feels impossible.  Like there is no right answer.  No good answer.  No path.  We look down the tunnel but cannot see the light. In these moments, we have to trust that following the thread, however thin and delicate, will lead to the highest good.  Trust the journey, if you will.When I was... Continue Reading →

Some Days, There Are Seasons

I dream of days cozied up by the fire, watching the fall leaves change. Inspiration enveloping me as I delight in flow and write away the day in euphoric, creative bliss. Taking breaks only to enjoy hugs, cuddles and apple cider. But…not today. Today, we carry the wood for that fire. In fact, it has... Continue Reading →

Some Days, We Subtract by Adding

My mom is a math teacher.  A beloved one, at that.  And I am the beneficiary of her brilliance and passion.  Perhaps not surprisingly, I am good at math.  Yet, I was an English major... While math sees the world through hard numbers, rules and predictable formulae with exclusively right and wrong answers, I see... Continue Reading →

Some Days, I Have No Doubt

“Don’t doubt yourself, Mom.” Head tilted over the railing of his top bunk, sandy blond hair flopping on his suntanned forehead (did we remember sunscreen this week???), he said this with a grounded, matter of fact knowing as he looked down at me, curled-up on the lower bunk, tear escaping down my cheek. It was... Continue Reading →

Some Days, We Channel Serenity…Now!

“And indeed there will be time” – T.S. Eliot, The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock January came and I imagined the year ahead, as I sometimes do.  I know we’re supposed to stay in the present moment.  And, I try.  But, my imagination is just so darn tempting sometimes.  I looked to spring.  And...

Some Days, We Need to Restart

Some days, we are running so hard and so fast that it gets hard to connect to the source.  Things start to feel glitchy and slow.  Disconnected.  Disorienting, even.  Perhaps we’re so in it.  Or carrying so much we don’t know how to unload.  Holding things tightly (again!).  Too much happening.  Pulled in multiple directions. ...

Some Days, We Hold Both

Lately, I’ve been reflecting on duality.  Yin and yang.  Happy and sad.  Brave and afraid.  Right brain and left brain.  Today and Some Day.  The question I keep coming back to – How do we hold both? Some Day & Today Life comes with tradeoffs.  My today is both limiting and enabling.  Empowering.  Inspiring.  So,... Continue Reading →
