We are dancing…

Tonight is the first time we’ve been here together. It’s dark out, there are no clouds and the stars fill up the sky. You say you’ve never seen stars like that before. I tell you that the stars are always like that out here except when they are falling. The strange sounds in the distance

The Magic of Life: Connection, Change, and Choice

Not long ago some children I know asked me if I believe in God. This is what I wanted to say to them, and what I will say to them when they get older. I believe in what I can see and feel with my senses and my emotions. I believe in my power as

Listen Up Gentlemen…

I recently read the book “Become Your Own Matchmaker” by Patti Stanger. I tend to pick up titles that catch my eye on the new-release shelf of the library.

Last month I acquired a used Champion Juicer (www.championjuicer.com) in a game of chance. Since then I’ve tried to juice 2-3 pounds of vegetables every day and I’ve noticed some interesting things. First of all I seem to have much more energy — I don’t feel the urge to take a nap after lunch and

The Science and Evolution of Why We Store Bodyfat

There is a truly awesome lecture by Dr. Scott Connelly wherein he describes the science and evolution of why we store bodyfat at the following links.

Well the fifth was four days ago and I for one did not
