With all the constant bombardment of urgent commentaries and loud talking heads, it is easy to almost drown in verbiage, noise and exhaustion. It will only increase as we move into the chaos of the domestic changing of the guard, too many opinions and anything else that can capture your attention. It is seductive as
People contact me with the question as to when will women step into their leadership roles. The answer is NOW. It may seem an unreasonable answer in light of the recent loss of a female candidate for the presidency. This is not an indictment of female leadership but a complex issue that needs to be
Here we are again. History is repeating itself. None of these theatrics is surprising. We had a tumultuous 70’s. Tumultuous 20’s same is true of the 1870’s etc. We do this every 50 years. The last reign was under President Jimmy Carter. He led under an ending cycle as is Trump. They are ineffective leaders
Here we are again, another assassination attempt, more historic photos and a continuation of blame, vicious conspiracies and lots of investigations. There is a long list of victims of America’s violent behavior. Candidates both in and out of office are ripe targets. Going back to Lincoln. There have been at least 15 direct assaults on
While we fritter away our time with social media, 24 hour news blasts and the wringing of hands about the elections, there is a big threat about to hit our shores. It is already apparent but we have chosen to give it lip service if that. It is the global decline in the birth rate.

Was it just a few years ago when we were cheering our “essential workers?”. Those were the people who went to work in the dangerous nursing homes and assisted living facilities to care for the sick and elderly. The pay was low, the protections minimal but still they went in. The facilities did next to
I don’t think I ever thought of my physical form as a prized race horse. I never even thought of it as pony. It didn’t really dawn on me until I got in my 40’s that maybe there was more going on than I thought. Someone told me long ago, before I dyed my hair,
I used to travel often. I didn’t think too much of air travel. I just did it and made an adventure of it. All that changed with the pandemic. I hardly travel by air any more. The hassle, the drive to get to the airport in LA, the lines, the exhaustion from poor sleep the
