I was eating lunch with my son at an upscale supermarket salad bar when my phone suddenly started to complain.
I need to calibrate my fear level so that equanimity is more than a fancy word, so that there’s time and space for soft things, for beautiful things.
And one of the ways you do this, it seems, Susie, is to write!
I can't imagine what I'd do without it. Words just gather around and extend their comfort.
“The balance of our soul chemistry, and assess the situation for its radiance as well as its risks.” These are two phrases I won’t soon forget.
I’m with you, Betsy. We’re all on the tightrope together.
AMEN seems like the proper response to this one on so many levels.
Do you think Jane would like you to read this to her? She must have been near the front of the line for those fire drills, too.
I laughed out loud at your reminiscences. Your point at the end is so on target.
I think that's what I must be unconsciously aiming for....laughter and insight. Could be worse.
That's absolutely the best combination. Like a spoonful of sugar...
Wonderful piece: so captures the mood of our times.
Appreciate your writing, Barbara. I'm searching for that middle way.
