ONE. My honky-tonk Jesus can hang on your antiseptic cross. Being human is not a binary proposition. Whitman said, “We contain multitudes.” Our cultural failing is white-washing complexity in the name of clarity. There’s a black Jesus that lives in Panama. Surely there are others. We can cling to the...

I did it. I broke my 30-year reunion boycott on a Sunday night ZOOM call. Our classmate Stacy facilitated. She did a brilliant job moving along the soliloquies of milestones and missteps. 23 women. 90 minutes of condensed and curated bios. The PG, PC versions. Reunions are built for extroverts’...

What if the root of our problems is in how we begin?  What if we decided to start the task, the moment, the conversation differently? To build anything beautifully alive and inspiring– be it a marriage, a childhood, a bouillabaisse or an ad campaign– it must begin with fresh eyes,...

Faded into the inevitable darkness of cultural compromise. Finn kicked off last Wednesday morning with a little Bruno Mars for drum practice. We were all shaking our groove thing till I noticed he had three minutes to ZOOM. He dashed off so as not to be late for at-home school....

Instead of Our Fear It all began with Jesus. We went to Sunday school when I was little. Mostly, I remember snacks. Volunteer moms knew the bible would be easier to digest with treats. Graham crackers go a long way when you have to explain Cain murdering his brother or...

Going Home This being human is a powerful paradox of terrible and beautiful proportion. We are spirits trapped in bodies. Earth-bound souls forever trying to fly. We marvel at the monarchs. Where they start, what they become, the magnificent distance they journey. They are not unlike us. In the two...

Three Steps to Go Dance has a kind of mesmerizingly syncopated magic. Like a-bra-ca-da-bra but with red-ruffled, hip-swinging swagger. Life in the 21st century moves at a fast-paced rhythm. Some days, we thrive in it. Others, we barely survive it. The dream though… is that it makes us come alive. ...

Yes, YOU!!! There are just three quick qualifying questions.  Can you eat fire? Can you walk a tightrope? Can you juggle? Wait, what? I thought I won the LOTTO. I’m not looking to join the CIRCUS. You must have the wrong number. Nope. You are definitely the lucky winner! Did...

Entering the Conundrum of Cumulonimbus Feelings  We are doing a 7 Day Calming Anxiety Mindfulness Class every morning as a family. I really wanted to do the Peak Performance one, because, well, who wouldn’t… Optimize success vs. minimize suffering. Not a seemingly tough choice.  And yet, against my will, my...
