Why Are They Always Asking For Something?
Tucson, like most cities in this country, has its share of homeless people. The police are efficient at containing them to certain parts of the city. Many areas in Tucson create a naturally inviting space for a homeless person to find a relative degree of comfort. Those areas are situated in all the dry washes…

It’s All Gobbledygook Anyway
One of my good friends recently emailed a link to a documentary he found compelling. He shared that the content deeply resonated with him. Like most people we connect to, my friend and I have a common outlook and shared values. We engage our lives in a similar manner. That is enough for me to want…

Tacos and Nazis
Getting from tacos to Nazis was easier than I thought. I didn’t have to look too hard for that connection. It found me. Tucson has over 1200 restaurants. Half of them serve tacos, many of which are food trucks scattered around the city. Having spent several winters in Tucson, my partner and I had ample…

It All Started With A Large Bone
One of my all-time favorite movies recently made its way onto Amazon Prime. 2001 A Space Odyssey was released on April 2, 1968. Fifty-five years later, I still find it relevant. Having watched the movie at least 6 or 7 times, I was drawn to see it again. I was deeply moved by one of…

There’s Something On The Bottom Of My Shoe
I’m in the process of getting ready to leave for Tucson. My girlfriend and I are spending the winter there. It is a 2000-mile journey, which takes us four days of driving. I get to leave the cold, damp, and snow-bound winter of Southeast Michigan for the warm, sun-filled winter of the Sonoran Desert. Our…

I have shared my journey of diagnosis and healing in the blogs I have posted. I still carry a profound sense of gratitude for finding resolution and healing with…

When the Obvious Isn’t So Obvious
It’s a 45-mile drive from where I live to my girlfriend’s house. There has been a lot of road construction this summer, forcing me to take a longer than usual route. Last Thursday, I took Interstate 96 to Telegraph Road. At that intersection, a large yellow sign read “Need A Prayer.” Two men were sitting…

Measure Twice Cut Once
When I was in my early twenties, I lived in a Yoga Ashram. We raised most of the food we ate. I was responsible for looking after a flock of chickens. As the number of people grew so did the number of chickens. It quickly became obvious that a new coop was needed. It was…

Lost In The Desert
Since spending the last four months in Tucson, many blogs I have posted reference the Sonoran Desert. Tucson is a city interwoven into the fabric of the desert. The Sonoran Desert bears witness to 4000 years of continuous habitation. There are echoes of the past and voices of the present. I have spent much time…

Getting My Needs Met!
I was having a conversation with a really good friend. We walk and we talk. Something we do often. We talk about issues significant to our lives. We’re about the same age. So we find ourselves talking about the same issues. Where we are at this point in our lives. Our significant relationships. What’s important…
