I’m taking a summer writing break and posting notes I wrote a while back – this one from 5 years ago. We need more compassion now – here are some thoughts. I love those moments when you think you know something or someone and a new piece of information changes your understanding. It is especially […]
John Lewis left a message to America, read at his funeral, to “let the spirit of peace and everlasting love be our guide”. In this last act of generosity and compassion, he extolled us to carry on the work he spent his life shaping. “Redeem the soul of America” he said, by getting into what […]
Using your instincts to guide you on life’s big decisions is something I know about. It was ten years ago that I met my husband in a random, unusual manner. It is possible I would have missed the signs of him being my true love if my instincts had not given me so many strong […]
There is great power in being seen. That is, being seen for who you are, seen for your very essence, being seen in a way that says you are understood and appreciated. My recent experience with this was not being seen myself, but in seeing others – animals in fact. The results were so telling, […]
I had an experience that helped me reconnect with what really moves me. It was powerful enough to make me stop, take notice and pay attention to how it benefits me.

It is clear that life as we know it is unraveling – and it is a good thing. It has been needed on many fronts – politically, socially, racially, ethically, and in public health. As we watch the principles that our country was founded on: liberty, justice, equality among all people, and governance for the […]
Deep listening is a skill desperately needed now as we deal with crisis and public unrest. This became particularly evident when two painful events unfolded around me. I realized I had to move out of my cocoon of familiar thinking and understanding to see the bigger picture of what these events mean. I had to […]
Change is essential to demonstrate that black lives matter – locally, we’ve had 10 days of marches and protests – it’s that important.
