Children at playWalking the dog today, I passed a sign on a stand in the middle of a cul-de-sac that said "Caution: Children At Play", and I thought.. what a dumb sign. "At Play" turns the word Play into a place in this context when it is actually an action word. If... See More »
The life of a treeImagine yourself as a tree. Your roots pull moisture from the soil. You heave and pull it in, and you can feel it as it travels up and into you. You push your roots down, grow more, and go deeper and farther, trying to find moisture while gaining... See More »

Do you feel the magic of Christmas?My kids hide in their rooms, playing video games. Family all moved away. Nobody comes to visit anymore. People say Merry Christmas, and Happy Holidays, but it seems like the magic is long gone. It's like waiting for your ride on the roller coaster,... See More »

Dear RussiaThe West really does not want to go to war with you. That is a fantasy only in Putin's foolish mind. He has a lot of mental issues as you likely know, even if you cannot admit it or talk to anyone about it without repercussions. The man is clearly... See More »
