Day 20 Coming Of Age At 62 | A red-tail & an eagle fly into a…
A red-tailed hawk and a bald eagle flew into my life over the course of 3 days. Seeing a red-tailed hawk isn’t unusual, but on Saturday during my walk in nature, the red-tail I saw was not to be ignored.

Day 11 Coming of Age at 62 | Believing in me
I adore sports movies, particularly those based on true stories. You know the ones, where the small town team with no resources and a lot of heart beats the big team with all the resources. Like The Hoosiers. Like Glory Road. Now I can add The Express, a drama based on the life of college [...]

Day 3 – Coming Of Age At 62
The rattle is powerful. It brings almost instant meditation and creates a changed state for me that is more powerful than traditional meditation. I’ve always had a hard time sitting and meditating. I get agitated rather than relaxed. People tell me if I just keep practicing I’ll “get there” - beyond an agitated state and [...]
