I do not have much to say or opine about. This is the month that seems to drag. One should really be at the beach. You know, see, feel the inevitable – shorter days, longer shadows. School was coming… oyy. I think I’ll go swimming, pretend I have errands and go see if the ice…
Poetry
I’ve always wondered how a poem starts, and then finishes in such a way that it gets considered to be a good poem. I’m not sure I even like poetry, it seems full of itself, contrite and arrogant all at once. Occasionally, I listen to poetry, however, it is listening to a good speaker, roll…

A moment of gratitude, a moment of sadness and then a moment of sharing. I close out again with gratitude.
We have very strong routines, very strong styles, discipline and rarely get caught in the weeds of life.
